c. In areas where conventional concrete foundations cannot be utilized because of soil conditions or utility conflicts, the use of metal helical screw-in type foundations may be utilized with written approval from the Village Engineer or designee. The Standard Details identify the minimums required.
2. Materials. The concrete shall be Class SI complying with Section 503 of the IDOT Standard Specifications for Road & Bridge Construction, latest edition. The reinforcement bars shall comply with Section 508 of the Standard Specifications. The raceway shall be a 2 inch diameter straight conduit of rigid plastic.
3. Construction Method.
a. The foundation excavation shall be made by augering. The foundation shall be cast-in-place and allowed to cure for at least fourteen (14) days prior to erecting the light pole standard. Concrete may be deposited against the soil. However, if soil conditions require use of a liner to form the hole, the liner may be withdrawn as the concrete is placed, with the approval of the Village Engineer or his designee. The top of the foundation shall be struck-off precisely level, to preclude the use of shims or other leveling means such as spacing washers, in order to allow plumb placement of the light standard atop the foundation surface.
b. Metal pole foundations shall be in accordance with Section 836 of the IDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, latest edition.
F. Electric Cable 600 Volt, Plastic Insulated Materials. The electric cable shall comply with the ASTM Standards (latest edition), Designation Number, and shall comply with the Insulated Power Cable Engineers Association Standards cited by the paragraph or table number in I.P.C.E.A.

Conductors of No. 8 AWG size, XLP or EPR - USE and smaller shall be stranded annealed copper wire, ASTM B-3 compliant. Conductors of No. 6 AWG size and larger shall be stranded annealed copper wire, ASTM B-8 compliant. Conductors shall be of different colors to designate hot and neutral wires. Preferred colors are black, red and white.
2. Fuses. The wiring in the light standard shall have a 10 amp in-line fuse, FNM-10, and shall use an inline breakaway fuse holder with crimp terminals and rubber boots. The neutral shall have a Bussman identified solid neutral fuse holder and crimp terminals with rubber boots.
3. Unit Duct. The electric cable shall be in accordance with Sections 816 and 1066 of the IDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, latest edition. The unit duct shall be one piece without splices. The unit duct may be formed by extruding it over the insulated conductors. The unit duct shall have a smooth inner bore which does not adhere to conductor insulation.
4. Construction Methods. The electric cable shall be continuous (no splicing) between the service connection and disconnect pedestal, between the lighting controller and light standard, and between the disconnect pedestal and light standard, and shall be contained within the plastic unit duct. The duct shall extend one foot into the light standard and the cable shall be long enough for the splices to be withdrawn 18 inches from the pole handhole. All electric cable and cable unit duct shall be buried at a minimum depth of 30 inches below finished grade.
5. Splicing Of 600 Volt Cable and Wire (In Light Standard). This specification covers splicing of insulated electric cable and wire. Compliance with the ASTM Standards is required, as cited by the ASTM Designation Number.

b. Rubber Tape. The rubber tape shall be of 0.75 inch width and 0.030 inch thickness, ASTM D119 compliant.
c. Vinyl-Plastic Tape. The vinyl tape shall be similar to that manufactured by 3M Corporation as SCOTCH Super 33+ Vinyl Plastic Electrical Tape. The vinyl tape shall be 0.75 inch width and 0.0070 inch thickness with an adhesive coating on one surface. The tape shall exhibit properties per ASTM D1000 and tape flammability resistance shall be per ASTM D568.
d. Alternate Taped Splice. A taped splice shall also mean a splice of pigtail construction made with a split-bolt connector wrapped in vinyl tape, followed by rubber tape, then finally with vinyl tape using the following criteria:
1. There shall be no exposed or bare electrical wire within the light standard, with the exception of the grounding cable. All exposed cable wire within a splice shall be fully taped.
2. Sufficient torque shall be exerted on the bolting assembly to insure positive electrical connection under all temperature and load conditions.
3. No insulating paint of any type shall be allowed.
G. Vibratory Plowing. The cable duct shall be directly buried by a vibratory plowing method to a minimum depth of 30 inches. Cable unit duct shall not be buried in excess of 48 inches.
1. Directional Boring: All directional boring must be in accordance with IDOT Standard Specification for Road and Bridge Construction, Sections 810 and 1088.
H. Granular Trench Backfill. At locations indicated by the Village Engineer or designee, a trench shall be constructed to accommodate the cable duct or unit. The trench shall be backfilled with granular material in accordance with Section 810 of the IDOT Standard Specification for Road and Bridge Construction, latest edition. The contractor or developer shall furnish the trench backfill material and shall appropriately dispose of all surplus backfill material.
I. Construction Methods. The trench shall be excavated to a depth no less than 30 inches and no greater than 48 inches, in a manner that prevents cave-in. Excavated material shall be withdrawn and placed a sufficient distance away to prevent excavated material from reentering the trench. The trench width shall be at least six inches. Where the cable duct enters the foundation or a rigid steel conduit, the bottom of the trench shall be shaped so as to provide a smooth directional run of the cable duct.
a. The cable duct shall be placed in the bottom of the trench only after all existing loose granular material has been removed, and the trench area has been bedded with granular backfill material, as directed by the Village Engineer or designee.
b. The trench shall be backfilled by placing granular material in uniform layers no greater than six inches in depth (loose un-compacted measure). The granular material in each deposited layer shall be thoroughly in such a manner as to avoid damage to the cable duct and/or wiring.
c. No granular material greater than two inches maximum dimension shall be allowed in any layer of the backfill placement.
d. No sod, frozen material, or any foreign material which, by decay or otherwise, would cause settlement, shall be placed as backfill material. Undesirable "naturally occurring" materials such as, but not limited to, topsoil, clay lumps, broken concrete, shall not exceed five percent (5%) by weight in any one sample of backfill material.
e. Any material excavated from the trench may be used as backfill provided it does not conflict with the above, and the material is approved by the Village Engineer or designee. However, if the material in question has been excavated from the roadway area, replacement material must be granular trench backfill regardless of what material has been excavated from the trench.
J. Acceptance of Street Lighting System.
1. Once the street lighting system has been initially installed according to the specifications set forth in this Section, the Village Engineer or designee shall, upon the request of the developer, inspect the system and prepare a list of items for repair (punch list) (commonly referred to as a “punch list”). The punch list shall be provided to the developer or their designee. When the appropriate repairs have been made, the Village shall accept the lighting system for luminaire maintenance only. The developer remains responsible for the lighting system and shall therefore be responsible for any damage due to construction, including cable hits and pole knock-downs. The Village shall accept the lighting system when the development is formally accepted in letter form, as written by the Director of Development Services or designee.
2. During the punch list creation, the Village shall recognize that one splice on each cable is necessary between the light standard and the connection to the Commonwealth Edison electrical system. This splice is allowed as a result of cable cutting associated with the construction of the electrical system. If the cable has been cut for other reasons (e.g. accidental cable hit) and thereby requires more than one splice per cable run, the cable and duct shall be replaced in its entirety from the Commonwealth Edison disconnect pedestal to the light standard, or from the Commonwealth Edison disconnect pedestal, or transformer, to the lighting controller.
