For single conductors, multiple conductors, triplexed power, and multi-conductor control or power cables, the Maximum Allowable Sidewall Pressure (MASP) is between 4380 N/m to 7300 N/m of bend radius based on the material of the cable. Sidewall Pressure (SP) is the radial force exerted on a cable as it is pulled around a bend. When the 3rd Edition of the Southwire Power Cable Manual was published in 2005, the recommended. tallation Pulling Tensions & Side Wall Pressure - Limitation of loads to be appli ctical experience, although Prysmian do have an installation department for high voltage cable ovides general recommendations for the selection and use of cables, providing useful guidance on cable installation. Each. stallers should consider bend radius, tension, jamming, and fill ratio before performing any conduit pull. Reference Okonite's “Installation Manual” for a complete treatment of cable pulling tensions. In cable pulling through a straight conduit, the normal force is also equal to the weight of the cable.
