Abstract
In this paper, the optimal fiber length in optical ground wire (OPGW) cable during production process is determined. The results show that in OPGW cable, if the fiber stranding length is less than the maximum lay length, the ultimate tensile stress (UTS) percentage decreases, but if it is higher, it would increase the bending losses and uses more fiber length, which is economically not viable. The calculation results show that by determining the maximum fiber lay length, the UTS percentage of OPGW cable can be controlled for a desired value.
