Product Information

Full details

This Groundarmor Electricity Cable Tile Tape is designed for construction professionals and utility companies needing robust protection for high-voltage electricity lines buried underground. Its key benefit is providing both a clear visual warning and durable physical shielding, ensuring safety and preventing accidental damage during excavation. A potential consideration is its specialized nature, meaning it's primarily for electrical cables rather than general-purpose conduits.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this cable tile tape?

Its primary purpose is to provide robust physical protection and a clear visual warning for buried high-voltage electricity lines on construction sites and in utility infrastructure projects.

What material is the tile tape made from?

The tile tape is made from 100% recycled polyethylene, designed for durability and longevity.

Does this product meet any industry standards?

Yes, it is manufactured to ENATS (12-23) standards, ensuring it meets specific industry requirements for utility cable protection.

How is the tape supplied?

It is supplied in convenient 40m rolls, making it easy to handle and install.

Can this tape be used for general cables or other utilities?

While robust, it is specifically designed and manufactured for high-voltage electricity lines to meet ENATS (12-23) standards. For other utilities, a different specialized product might be more appropriate.

What are the dimensions of the tile tape?

The tile tape is 150mm wide and 2.5mm thick.

Troubleshooting

Tile tape appears to be tearing during installation.

Ensure installation tools are not excessively sharp and that the tape is not being dragged over rough, abrasive surfaces unnecessarily. Verify installation is not being performed in extreme temperature conditions that could affect material flexibility.

Concerns about adequate physical shielding.

Confirm the tape is laid directly over the cables and that the specified width (150mm) provides sufficient coverage for the buried utilities. Adhere to ENATS (12-23) guidelines for installation depth and placement.

Difficulty unrolling the tape.

Allow the roll to acclimate to ambient temperature for a short period if stored in very cold conditions. Ensure the roll is supported and being unrolled smoothly, not forced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers superior protection for high-voltage electrical cables.
  • Manufactured to industry standards (ENATS 12-23) for reliability.
  • Durable and resistant to tearing, shattering, and displacement.
  • Made from environmentally conscious recycled polyethylene.
  • Easy to install and handle due to its roll format.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for high-voltage electricity lines; may not be suitable for all cable types.
  • Requires proper installation techniques to ensure maximum effectiveness.
  • Its specific application means it's not a universal cable protection solution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the trench is prepared according to utility specifications for buried cables.
  2. Lay the high-voltage electricity cables as per standard procedures.
  3. Unroll the Groundarmor tile tape and position it directly over the cables, ensuring full coverage.
  4. Maintain recommended spacing between the cable and the tape as per local regulations and standards.
  5. Backfill the trench carefully, ensuring the tape remains in place.

Compatibility:

This product is specifically designed and manufactured to meet ENATS (12-23) standards for the protection of high-voltage electricity lines. It is compatible with standard excavation and backfilling practices.

Care:

As an underground buried product, the tile tape requires no ongoing active care once installed. Its durable construction is designed to withstand underground conditions for the lifespan of the buried utility.
