The heating cable can be layed out using welded wire fabric and zip ties or tape, or pre punched steel strapping for loose cable installations not in a mat form. Cold leads should be sleeved for this installation following conductor fill and size requirements in the NEC and CEC. The heating cable portion and cold connection can not pass into the conduit sleeve. Jumpers must be used to protect the heating cable where joints are present on the concrete slab below as well as in the new slab.<\/li><li><strong>Single Pour Concrete:<\/strong> In this installation the aggregate or concrete base is prepared first. Once the base is prepared the installer can begin by placing a grid of welded wire fabric or rebar in preparation for the heating cable. The heating cables or mats can be attached to the welded wire fabric with plastic zip ties or tape. Take note of layout examples on page 9 for installations requiring jumpers. Jumpers must be used for any and all joint cable crossings. Do not cross expansion joints. Once the heating cable is installed, place chairs or concrete dobies under the rebar or welded wire fabric grid to bring the heating cable within 2\u201d to 3\u201d of the surface. Cold leads can be sleeved following conductor and fill size requirements in the NEC and CEC.

Cables in a mat can be layed out in the configuration desired directly on the surface. Do not compress or strain the cable, run heavy machinery, equipment, or vehicles over it. Be careful to avoid stepping on the cold section factory connection of the cable. Consult the NEC or CEC for grounding requirements of rebar or welded wire fabric for asphalt installations. When working with concrete or asphalt joints, design the layout so each section of the slab is covered and the cable crossing of joints are minimized. See page 9 for example layouts.

The base coat is to be rolled smooth in preparation of the heating cable installation. Welded wire mesh can be used to install loose cables in a grid. The grid can be secured to the base coat slab using stakes. If using a heating cable in mat form, the mats can be layed out on the base coat slab and secured down using the mesh portion of the mat and not the heating cable. Cold leads should be sleeved for this installation following conductor fill and size requirements in the NEC and CEC. The heating cable portion and cold connection can not pass into the conduit sleeve. Jumpers must be used to protect the heating cable where any and all joints are present. Do not cross expansion joints.<\/li><li><strong>Single Pour Asphalt:<\/strong> In this installation the aggregate or base is prepared first. Once the base is prepared, a layer of sand or stone dust is placed over the base coat approximately 1\u201d thick. The installer can begin by placing a grid of welded wire fabric or landscaping stakes in preparation for the heating cable. The heating cables or mats can be attached to the welded wire fabric, or landscaping stakes with plastic zip ties that will not melt. Take note of layout examples on page 11 for installations requiring jumpers. Jumpers must be used for any and all joint cable crossings. Cold leads should be sleeved following conductor and fill size requirements in the NEC and CEC.
