Power Line for conveyor

Power Line for conveyor

Power Line for conveyor

(OP)
I am design a part assembly conveyor.  The conveyor will be running off 208VAC, 3 PHASE, 4 WIRE.  The total length of the conveyor is about 90 feet long.   The conveyor will have to split it in half (due to shipping and installation purposes).  Thus, the power line will have to be broken, and I do not want to roll back the power line.  So! my question is this, per code (NEC) in breaking the power line, is there anything I can use to break the line and retach it(by the way there is wireway on this system).
