The cable ( ) or an empty pipe and at least one holding device ( ) fastened to the inner wall ( ) of the canal or pipe system are installed in the area of a branch point ( ) in such a way, that the cable or empty pipe are guided around the branch point by means of the holding device and due to their defined pre-tension.
