Day-to-day operating brief

What Cable Puller (Trenchless) work looks like in practice

A trenchless cable puller installs cables through ducts or bores using winches, rollers and monitored pulling forces. The contract should cover duct proving, cable identity, exclusion zones, stored energy and limits on tension and bend radius.

Responsibilities reflected in the contract

  • Verify duct route, cable identity, length and pull plan before setup.
  • Inspect and position winches, ropes, swivels, rollers and monitoring equipment.
  • Maintain exclusions around tensioned lines, drums and stored-energy zones.
  • Coordinate start, stop and speed through the agreed communication system.
  • Monitor pulling force, cable travel, markers and abnormal movement.
  • Protect cable ends and record force events, damage checks and completion.

A realistic working scenario

Pulling force rises sharply before the cable reaches the planned marker. The operator stops the winch, secures stored energy and asks the supervisor to investigate duct, roller and alignment conditions before restarting.

Outputs to agree

  • controlled cable installation through the approved route
  • protected cable ends and identification
  • complete pull-force and handover evidence

Records and evidence

  • Duct, route and cable schedule.
  • Winch, rope and roller check.
  • Pull force, length and event log.
  • Damage, obstruction and completion handover.
  • Work records.
  • Handover notes.

Reporting relationship

Typically reports to Line Manager or Department Manager. Confirm the employer's actual reporting structure in the builder.

Authority and escalation

  • The puller may operate within specified force and method. Exceeded tension, changed route, unproved duct and equipment substitution require the cable or site supervisor.
  • Obtain approval before committing expenditure, changing contractual commitments or making regulated or staffing decisions outside the assigned role.

Tools and systems

  • Site records.
  • Project systems.
  • Risk assessment records.

Workplace context

  • Construction sites, project offices, client sites and approved work locations.

Training and certification

  • Complete employer-required health and safety training.

Contract priorities

  • stored energy and winch safety
  • cable and duct identification
  • communication across long routes
  • force and damage records

Information the employer should prepare

  • the cable types, ducts, bores and installation distances covered
  • the sites, travel, shift and call-out arrangements
  • the winch, drum, signalling and stored-energy competence required

Frequently asked questions

Can pulling continue after force spikes?

Stop and investigate through the approved method; continuing may damage cable, duct or equipment.

What should a pull record show?

Record cable and route identity, equipment, force or tension information, stops, abnormalities, damage checks and final handover.

Can a cable pull begin before the duct is proved?

Only where the approved method expressly establishes equivalent readiness; an uncertain or obstructed route should be investigated before risking the cable.

Who sets the maximum pulling tension?

The authorised cable or engineering information should define limits for the cable, pulling head and route; the operator must not invent a higher value onsite.

What happens when voice communication is lost mid-pull?

Use the planned stop procedure, secure the system and restore reliable communication before movement resumes across the separated work locations.

Can a different winch rope be substituted?

Not without confirming rating, condition, compatibility, connections and method approval for the expected load and route.

How should a pulling-force spike be recorded?

Capture the cable and route position, force, duration, equipment response, stop and inspection findings so the authorised person can decide whether to continue.

Who accepts the cable after the pull?

The project should identify the person reviewing end condition, identification, length or marker, force record, damage checks and protection before handover.
