How to Install Elastimold 252LR Deadbreak Elbow Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of Elastimold 252LR Deadbreak Elbow Connectors. It covers cable preparation, assembly, and connection to a 25kV class 200 ampere deadbreak bushing.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Wrench, Wire brush, Crimp tool, Wire strippers, Cable cutting tool, Fully insulated hot stick

Supplies needed:

Elastimold 252LR Deadbreak Elbow Connector kit (includes Housing, Compression Lug, Probe, Probe Contact, Lubricant, Hold-down Bail), UD cable (with concentric neutral and semi-con shielding), No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire, Appropriate grounding connector, Elastimold 25kV class 200 ampere deadbreak bushing or accessory device, HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s) (if shipping covers are removed)

  1. Perform Safety Checks and Initial Inspection

    DANGER: De-energize all apparatus before beginning installation or removal of parts. Inspect all components of the 252LR kit and the mating bushing for any damage, verify their ratings, and ensure compatibility. Confirm the elbow housing cable entrance size and compression lug size are appropriate for your cable. Check the probe threads by hand-threading the probe into the compression lug; if resistance is encountered, check for damage and replace the component.

  2. Train and Prepare the Cable

    Train the UD cable as shown in the documentation to facilitate operation. Cut excess cable squarely at the center line of the bushing, ensuring a minimum of 20 inches (508mm) of cable extends beyond the end of the cable pad mount transformer. Unwrap and bind the concentric neutral wires 8-1/2 inches (216mm) back from the end of the cable. Remove the cable shield and insulation squarely, taking extreme care not to nick the conductor.

  3. Prepare Conductor and Install Compression Lug

    Wire brush the bare aluminum conductors immediately after stripping. Install the compression lug onto the conductor, rotating it to spread the inhibitor. Position the compression lug so that its contact threaded hole aligns with the bushing bore. Crimp the lug according to the crimp chart provided with the compression lug, starting at the crimp line mark and rotating 180 degrees for each successive crimp. Carefully wipe any excessive inhibitor from the outside of the lug and cable.

  4. Remove Semi-Con Shield and Clean Insulation

    Remove the semi-con shield as indicated by the cable cut-back template. Bevel the insulation end a maximum of 1/8 inch (3.2mm). Thoroughly clean the insulation to remove all traces of conductive residue, ensuring a clean surface for assembly.

  5. Assemble Elbow Housing onto Cable

    Clean and lubricate the cable insulation and the inside of the elbow housing using only the lubricant supplied in the kit; do not substitute other lubricants. Slide the elbow connector onto the cable using a back-and-forth twisting motion. Wipe off any excess silicone lubricant from the assembly.

  6. Install the Probe

    Align the elbow with the compression lug's threaded hole. Thread the probe into the lug by hand, taking care to prevent cross-threading. Tighten the probe with the supplied wrench until the wrench bends, indicating proper torque.

  7. Assemble the Hold-Down Bail

    Place the hold-down bail into the hold-down bracket. Compress the bail and insert it securely into the brackets.

  8. Connect Concentric Neutral Wires

    Using a separate No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent, insert one end through the grounding eye on the elbow and twist it tightly, ensuring not to damage the eye. Twist all neutral wires together and connect them to ground using an appropriate connector. Provide adequate slack in the wires to allow for elbow operation.

  9. Connect Elbow to Bushing Plug

    WARNING: Lubricate and connect the elbow to the bushing ONLY if the transformer and elbow are known to be de-energized. Clean the receptacle portion of the elbow connector and the mating bushing, then lubricate both with the supplied lubricant. Use a fully insulated hot stick to place the elbow onto the bushing; do not operate by hand. DO NOT SEPARATE IF ENERGIZED.

  10. Secure Elbow with Hold-Down Bail

    Pull the hold-down bail up over the crown or top of the elbow so that the eyebolt on the bail is directly over the operating eye. Tighten the elbow locator by turning the eyebolt in a clockwise direction. Adjust the nut on the eyebolt until it allows the eyebolt to seat securely in the locator, ensuring the nut acts as a stop to prevent excessive force on the elbow. Once the nut is in its final position, it will not require readjustment when removing and replacing the elbow.
