The invention concerns a method of installing a telecommunication cable (3) on a supporting cable (1), particularly on a ground or phase cable of a high voltage overhead line, whereby the telecommunication cable (3) is laid along the supporting cable (1) and is attached thereto in undulating form with the help of attaching elements (5; 11; 13; 15). This arrangement makes it possible to make repairs in a simple way on the supporting cable (1) and the telecommunication cable (3).

Method for installing a telecommunication cable on a supporting cable

An electrical overhead cable includes: cabled electrical conductors (3); tensile strength support elements (1, 2); and optical waveguide elements made of metal coated tubes (4) containing optical fibers (9). The metal coating on the optical fiber-containing tubes is a thin, self-enclosed metal layer (5), which is in direct contact with the surface of the tube (4).
