General Notes
MOUNTING HARDWARE
• Ensure you use the correct mounting hardware for each
mounting point. Our mounting hardware is pre-assembled
based specically on your specication for each mounting
point end (see below).
CABLE MANAGEMENT
• We supply approximately 10% more cable than required.
For example, for a 20m distance between mounting points,
we supply you 2 x 22m cables.
• The un-needed cable can be cut on site with a sharp knife
or side-cutters, usually after the system has be tensioned to
remove any unwanted sag and the length required for the
electrical connection has been considered, so there is no
need to be accurate.
• At the mounting point end which does NOT have power
connected, the cable
is provided pre-xed with no extra cable hanging out at the
end.
• At the mounting point end which DOES have power
connected, the extra cable is fed through the xing block,
and this extra cable is then taken to wherever is convenient
to make the connection to the power supply, or power
feed from the power supply. In the case of a pole mounting
point, the neatest approach may be to drill a small hole
to the side (or above or below) the mounting plate (with a
gland or grommet if preferred) and to run the cables into
the hole and down the inside of the pole, to connect with
the power supply that is typically housed at the base of the
pole.

CABLE TENSIONING
• Turnbuckles should be hand-tightened ONLY.
Checking the cable for re-tensioning at a period after
installation is strongly recommended.
CONNECTIONS
• To make electrical connection with the catenary
cable, you can use any method you would use with a
normal
cable. Options include use of insulation displacement
connectors such as Coolsplice, or you can use
connectors that require stripped wire such as screw
terminal
connectors or wire nuts. To strip the catenary wire,
simply strip the outer insulating layer, as you would any
other wire.

MOUNTING HARDWARE
• Pre-assembled mounting hardware sets are supplied to
specication, as per requested mounting requirements.
• There are 3 main types of mounting
(as pictured): Pole Mount sets, Eyebolt mounting sets, or
Universal Plate mount sets
• Eyebolt mount sets are designed specically for their
type of mounting surface: either timber, masonry or metal
mounting specic.
• Each mounting hardware set is supplied pre-congured
for either a powered-end, or non-powered end of the cable
run. Mounting sets are supplied with xing blocks pre-xed
and secured at the non-powered end / mounting point only.
Conversely, at the powered end, xing blocks are supplied
with set scews
“loose” to allow for cable feeding, and electrical connection
of the cable run.

each end) ensuring that turnbuckles are fully extended
(in their longest state) when you begin. Turnbuckles are
supplied in their extended state (Fig 3.1)
NOTE! In the following intructions we will use
the Universal Plate Mount as an example.
Fig 3.1 Reattach turnbuckles to each mounting device ensuring they
are at their fully extended state as pictured.

end with extra cable and loose set screws in the xing
blocks) and pull each cable until they are both tight and
even (Fig 4.1) Once tight, slide the xing blocks up to
the turnbuckle (Fig 4.2).

6. Once both ends are xed off, tension the cable by
tightening the turnbuckles at each end. Hand tighten
Turnbuckles ONLY (use a clockwise motion when facing
the mounting device) (Fig 6.1). Lock off the turnbuckles
with the lock nuts (Fig 6.2).
Fig 6.1 Tension the cable by tightening
the turnbuckles at each end. Hand
Tighten ONLY!
Fig 6.2 Lock off the turnbuckles with the
lock nuts
NOTE! Each turnbuckle offers about 80mm of
adjustment, so a turnbuckle at both ends with
provide over 160mm of tensioning, which is
more than needed, typically you might need 10
or 20mm of adjustment to remove any sag out
of the cables once the lights have been hung.
Turnbuckles should be hand tightened ONLY
