Rule 54.6-E2

54.6-E2)    Covered from 8 Feet above the Ground Level and above: All risers from underground cables or other conductors which pass through an unrelated conductor or cable level shall be covered or encased by material as described in Rule 54.6–E1 or by a suitable protective covering as described in Rule 22.2 from a distance of 8 feet above the ground to:

a)    Not less than 18 inches above supply conductors.

b)    Not less than 36 inches above communication conductors for supply risers of 750 volts or less; and

c)    Not less than 48 inches above communication conductors for supply risers of 750 - 7500 volts; and

d)    Not less than 60 inches above communication conductors for supply risers of more than 7500 volts.

When iron or steel pipe, or other material not meeting the minimum insulating efficiency as specified in Rule 22.2–B is used it shall be terminated or covered by suitable protective covering where within a vertical distance of 8 feet from communication conductors or cables, or unprotected supply conductors.
