Standard Practice for the Installation of Inductive Loop Detectors

Importancia y uso:

4.1 This practice provides a method for the in-road installation of an inductive loop detector that consists of wire loops, lead-in wires, and lead-in cable. The practice is intended for installing wires in saw cuts made in the roadway surface and not for installing preformed loops that may be encased in a protective enclosure such as plastic conduit. Typical components of an inductive loop detector system are illustrated in Fig. 1. Modern inductive loop detector electronic units are capable of detecting vehicles even if the wire loop is laid on reinforcing steel before concrete is placed.
