Hubbell Sectionalizing Cabinet & Pedestal Installation Instructions

INSTALLATION

Hubbell Sectionalizing Cabinets and Pedestals are easy to install by following these simple instructions:

1. Excavate hole, make area 1-2 inches longer and approximately 6 inches deeper than the suggested burial height of the cabinet or pedestal being installed.

INSTALLATION

2. Compact soil and place gravel in the base to a depth of approxi mately 6 – 8 inches.

3. Using a sling, lift and position the cabinet or pedestal in place, then lower the product into place to the recommended burial depth, allowing gravel to run out under the base. Check eleva tion, level, and make any necessary adjustments.

4. Place backfill around the cabinet or pedestal using normal utility practices for backfilling. If 95% compaction is required, internal bracing should be used to prevent deflection or premature failure.

Note: Do not use large chunks of rocks or frozen earth as backfilling material.
