I have an article about cable pressurisation on my web site at:
http://www.samhallas.co.uk/repository/documents/pressurisation.pdf
from Drallim (I believe) a major manufacturer of such systems.

There's also a booklet from the British Post Office onthe subject:

Mind you, we'd still appreciate a book, Don.

Cheers,
Sam
