All existing F1 buried cables in DA 150502 & 150503 (22 ga.) will be abandoned and replaced with new 22 ga. in the area covered by this road job. All working services in the F1 cable(22 ga) will be cut to the new F1 (22 ga.) cables. All existing F2 buried cables in DA 150502 & 150503 (24 ga.) will be abandoned and replaced with new 24 ga. in the area covered by this road job. All working services in the F2 cable(24 ga) will be cut to the new F2 (24 ga.) cables.The existing cable lengths and new cable lengths for the F1 will change a little but will not have any significant affect. The existing cable lengths for F2 will change a little due too removing the two SAI's and moving the location of the one new SAI that is replacing the two, but will not have any significant affect. All existing cables (22 ga. & 24 ga.) will be replaced with the same gauge cables.
