Posted on 2021-05-24
On an example from Brugg Cables, it is shown how to set up your cable pulling project in Cableizer. This example validates our cable pulling module and has been added to our test cases, ensuring...

Multi-layer backfill method
Multi-layer backfill method

Posted on 2021-05-19
With the multi-layer backfill method, it is possible to simulate the filling of a rectangular trench where the cables are buried with two superimposed horizontal layers of different materials,...

Cable crossing - Influence of spacing between systems and its limitations
Cable crossing - Influence of spacing between systems and its limitations

Posted on 2021-04-26
Based on an example, the influence of the spacing between crossing systems on the cable rating is discussed and the limitations of the calculation method are outlined.

Cable crossing - Influence of crossing angle
Cable crossing - Influence of crossing angle

Posted on 2021-03-29
Results from cable crossing simulations can sometimes be confusing at a first glance. Based on a real example, we investigate the influence of the crossing angle on the cable rating.
