Однако, согласно Правилам безопасной эксплуатации электроустановок (и уж тем более - на взрыво- и пожароопасных производствах), запрещается использование кабеля даже с минимальными повреждениями. Поэтому такого рода повреждения должны быть полностью исключены (в данном случае - предотвращены). В противном случае, даже если бы нам «удалось» свести к минимуму эти повреждения, такой кабель пришлось бы тут же выбраковать, поскольку, как только что было сказано, эксплуатировать его нельзя.English-Russian dictionary of scientific and technical difficulties vocabulary > damage

7 nest egg
bas m de laine, pécule mNervous about your nest egg? If it's loaded with stocks, you should be. Stocks could easily sink further, tread water, or rise slowly. To minimize the damage to your portfolio, you need some holdings that don't move in tandem with equities. The most obvious vehicle is bonds, but you can further protect yourself against market swings by including other alternatives, such as hedge funds, real estate, and oil and gas.

8 counterfeit
Gen Mgtto produce forged or imitation goods or money intended to deceive or defraud. Counterfeited goods of inferior quality are often sold at substantially lower prices than genuine products and may bear the brand or trade name of the company. Counterfeiting violates trademark and intellectual property rights and may damage the reputation of producers of authentic goods. National and international legislation provides some recourse to companies against counterfeiters, but strategies such as consumer warnings and labeling methods are also used to minimize the impact of counterfeiting. Efforts to eliminate counterfeiting are coordinated by the International AntiCounterfeiting Coalition. -

10 Blenkinsop, John
[br]b. 1783 near Newcastle upon Tyne, Englandd. 22 January 1831 Leeds, England[br]English coal-mine manager who made the first successful commercial use of steam locomotives.[br]In 1808 Blenkinsop became agent to J.C.Brandling, MP, owner of Middleton Colliery, from which coal was carried to Leeds over the Middle-ton Waggonway. This had been built by Brandling's ancestor Charles Brandling, who in 1758 obtained an Act of Parliament to establish agreements with owners of land over which the wagon way was to pass. That was the first railway Act of Parliament.By 1808 horse haulage was becoming uneconomic because the price of fodder had increased due to the Napoleonic wars. Brandling probably saw the locomotive Catch-Me- Who-Can demonstrated by Richard Trevithick. In 1811 Blenkinsop patented drive by cog-wheel and rack rail, the power to be provided preferably by a steam engine. His object was to produce a locomotive able to haul a substantial load, while remaining light enough to minimize damage to rails made from cast iron which, though brittle, was at that date the strongest material from which rails could be made. The wagonway, formerly of wood, was relaid with iron-edge rails; along one side rails cast with rack teeth were laid beside the running surface. Locomotives incorporating Blenkinsop's cog-wheel drive were designed by Matthew Murray and built by Fenton Murray \& Wood. The design was developed from Trevithick's to include two cylinders, for easier starting and smoother running. The first locomotive was given its first public trial on 24 June 1812, when it successfully hauled eight wagons of coal, on to which fifty spectators climbed. Locomotives of this type entered regular service later in the summer and proved able to haul loads of 110 tons; Trevithick's locomotive of 1804 had managed 25 tons.Blenkinsop-type locomotives were introduced elsewhere in Britain and in Europe, and those upon the Kenton \& Coxlodge Wagonway, near Newcastle upon Tyne, were observed by George Stephenson. The Middleton locomotives remained at work until 1835.[br]Bibliography10 April, 1811, "Certain Mechanical Means by which the Conveyance of Coals, Minerals and Other Articles is Facilitated….", British patent no. 3,431.Further ReadingJ.Bushell, 1975, The World's Oldest Railway, Sheffield: Turntable (describes Blenkinsop's work).E.K.Scott (ed.), 1928, Matthew Murray, Pioneer Engineer, Leeds.C.von Oeynhausen and H.von Dechen, 1971, Railways in England 1826 and 1827, Cambridge: W.Heffer \& Sons.PJGR -
11 risk management
Gen Mgtthe variety of activities undertaken by an organization to control and minimize threats to the continuing efficiency, profitability, and success of its operations. The process of risk management includes the identification and analysis of risks to which the organization is exposed, the assessment of potential impacts on the business, and deciding what action can be taken to eliminate or reduce risk and deal with the impact of unpredictable events causing loss or damage. Risk management strategies include taking out insurance against financial loss or legal liability and introducing safety or security measures. -

disaster preparedness
The aggregate of measures to be taken in view of disasters, consisting of plans and action programmes designed to minimize loss of life and damage, to organize and facilitate effective rescue and relief, and to rehabilitate after disaster. Preparedness requires the necessary legislation and means to cope with disaster or similar emergency situations. It is also concerned with forecasting and warning, the education and training of the public, organization and management, including plans, training of personnel, the stockpiling of supplies and ensuring the needed funds and other resources.

Cable Pulling
Cable pulling is well known to cable installers throughout the world. First a line is threaded through the conduit; the line is attached to the cable; and then the line is used to drag the cable back through the conduit. For more than 50 years, millions of kilometers of electrical and communications cable have been installed using this basic method.
There is a "technology" of cable pulling. How can one determine the maximum distance that a cable can be pulled without damage? How can pulls be optimized to minimize splices and splicing expense? Proper answers to these questions mean better, more efficient cable installations, with less damaged cable and longer cable life.
[ http://www.polywater.com/commcabl.html]Протяжка кабеля
Протяжка - широко распространенный во всем мире способ прокладки кабеля. Сначала через трубу протягивают проволоку. Затем к концу этой проволоки прикрепляют кабель, после чего проволоку вытягивают из трубы и таким образом протягивают через нее кабель. За более чем 50 лет с помощью этого способа были проложены миллионы километров электрического кабеля и кабеля связи.
Данная технология называется протяжкой кабеля. Как определить максимальное длину трубы, через которую можно протянуть кабель без его повреждения? Как можно оптимизировать процесс протяжки, чтобы уменьшить число соединений жил кабеля и затрат на их выполнение? Зная ответ на этот вопрос, можно протянуть кабель с наименьшими повреждениями, что приведет к увеличению его срока службы.
