I’m looking for some advice in bending 750mcm 15kv cable. I have 4 runs on 3c 750 terminating in a 3x4ft box. I see a lot of reference to using hydraulic benders but non of these mention bending cables that will need stress cones installed. Anyone have experience bending cables like this? I have terminated single conductor 5kv 750s but I had a lot more room and tight bends were not required.
 
Looking at 300.34 and the dimensions of one manufacturer's 3 conductor, 750kcmil, 15kV cable, the minimum bending radius would be 43.3". If you have to use any type of tool to bend that cable, I would expect that you are trying to bend a radius that is less than the minimum permitted radius.
