3、s should be separated by a suitable distance according to:a) the voltage of the power cable;b) the type of the power cable;c) the type of the telecommunication cable;d) the nature of the separating material.The minimum distance is often stipulated in national standards.Under the following circumstan

4、ces national standards may allow reduced distances: the power cable having a concentric neutral operates at low voltage and the telecommunication cable has anearthed armouring, or the cables are separated by concrete fillings or similar material.If there is danger to staff doing manual excavation, h

Such effects are especially to be ex

6、pected when:a) the power cable belongs to a network with a directly earthed neutral;b) the individual phase conductors of the power line are run in separate cables (e.g. three-phase single-corecables); orc) the currents in the power lines have a high harmonic content.Danger and interference are not

Theduties and responsibilities of each party should be precisely defined. Special measures may be necessary to overcomelimitations of space underground and to facilitate subsequent maintenance of the cables, and such special measuresneed to be agreed before the joint construction work commences.
