Frequently asked questions

What size cable will it fit over?

The cover is hollow underneath with a 710mm x 710mm hexagonal base, giving enough clearance for a single exposed cable run without disturbing it.

Does it need to be fixed down?

No. The base is sand-ballasted, so the 17.2kg weight holds it in place without bolts, tape or stakes.

Will it stay upright in wind or when knocked?

The hexagonal base and low centre of gravity from the ballast keep it stable, and unlike a round cone it won't roll if it's nudged.

Can more than one be used together to cover a longer cable run?

Yes, covers can be placed end to end along the length of the exposed cable for continuous coverage.

Is it suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, it's a rotationally moulded plastic unit designed for continuous outdoor site and highway use.

Does it come in other warning wording?

This version carries a fixed "Danger Live Cable" panel; get in touch if you need a different hazard message.

Is it heavy to move and position?

At 17.2kg it's a straightforward single-person lift and placement, with no tools needed.
