Background
OlderBambiMaxmanualsinstructoperatorstofastentheIVCpowercabletotheIDShuband
deploymentcableusingzip‐ties.Operatorsareinstructedtoprovidesomeslackduringinstallation.
Despitethis,SEIhasobservedincidencesofthepowercablebeingpulledfromthestrainreliefonthe
IVC,resultinginwateringress.Thezip‐tiemaygraduallyworkalongthepowercableovertimeand

Recommendations
SEIrecommendsthatoperatorsavoidfasteningthepowercabletotheIDSorIDSdeploymentcableall
together.Insteadtheoperatorsshouldfastenthecabledirectlytothebucketheadwith4zip‐tiesas
illustratedinFigure1.Operatorsmustensurethatthereisatleast6”ofslackintheline.Itis
recommendedthatoperatorsquicklycheckthatthereisadequateslackinthelinebeforeflight.
NewbucketswillalreadyhavetheinstallationshowninFigure1.
