Abstract
The invention provides a method for pulling strands or sub-groups of strands of a multi-strand cable into a conduit (3). In accordance with this method, a strand or sub-group of strands (2) to be pulled into the conduit is conveyed from one end of the conduit to the other by the movement of a drive element (1) in tension, to which the strand or sub-group of strands is temporarily coupled. In addition, the drive element in tension is designed not to enter a bundle of previously installed strands.
