| Micro-trench installation technique |
 |
This Recommendation describes the so-called micro-trenching technique, that allows installing underground cables at a shallow depth, in small grooves. The advantages of this technique over conventional cable laying technologies lie essentially in its speed of execution, lower cost, significantly lower environmental impact and limited disruption to road and, as a consequence of the previous items, easiness in obtaining permits for the occupation of public area. |
