Abstract: Methods are disclosed for installing a communication cable in a high voltage conduit containing energized high voltage cables. A method includes inserting a duct rodder through a duct funnel into the high voltage conduit, pushing the duct rodder towards a second location, in response to the duct rodder being impeded in the high voltage conduit, attaching a loop attachment to the duct rodder, reinserting the duct rodder, inserting a second duct rodder having a hook attachment into the opposite end of the high voltage conduit to engage the loop attachment of the duct rodder, pulling the duct rodder through the high voltage conduit, attaching a communication cable to the duct rodder at the second location; and pulling the communication cable to the first location by retracting the duct rodder. Embodiments also include using a flexible rodder attachment for the duct rodder to overcome an impedance in the high voltage conduit.
