Overview

The ABB 10551 is a heavy-duty, malleable iron watertight conduit fitting designed for secure cable terminations in industrial and outdoor environments. Engineered with a 2-inch NPT hub thread, this fitting integrates seamlessly with standard 2-inch conduit systems, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure. The fitting accommodates cable jackets with outside diameters ranging from 2 to 2.187 inches, eliminating the need for additional adapters or modifications. Constructed from durable malleable iron, the 10551 provides superior mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, outperforming PVC or aluminum alternatives in impact resistance and longevity. Its tapered hub threads feature a safe-edge ground cone and double bevel sealing ring, delivering a leak-resistant seal that prevents moisture ingress in wet or corrosive conditions. The watertight design meets UL and CSA certifications for liquidtight and watertight performance, making it suitable for hazardous locations under CEC rules (Class I, Zone 2; Class I, Division 2; Class II, Division 1). Typical applications include manufacturing plants, water treatment facilities, commercial buildings, and outdoor lighting systems where reliable cable protection is critical. Installation is straightforward, with threaded connections ensuring a vibration-resistant fit that maintains integrity over time. The 10551 is part of ABB’s Installation Products line, a trusted solution for demanding electrical installations requiring long-term durability and performance.

How to Install the 10551 Jacketed Metal Clad Cable Connector

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the 10551 Jacketed Metal Clad Cable Connector using the Sabre Tooth grounding sleeve method. Ensure all circuits are de-energized before beginning.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Cable cutter, Wire strippers, Torque wrench

Supplies needed:

10551 Jacketed Metal Clad Cable Connector, Teck or jacketed MC type cable

  1. De-energize Circuits

    Before beginning installation, verify that all electrical circuits are de-energized to prevent the risk of electrical shock.

  2. Prepare the Cable

    Ring-cut the cable squarely and remove the outer jacket and armor to the desired length. Ensure the outer jacket is flush with the end of the armor. Exercise caution to avoid nicking or cutting the conductor insulation during this process.

  3. Slide Components onto Cable

    Slide the gland nut, retainer ring, and neoprene bushing over the prepared cable in the correct order.

  4. Install Sabre Tooth Grounding Sleeve

    Insert the point of the Sabre Tooth grounding sleeve fully over the cable armor and beneath the outer jacket.

  5. Seat Neoprene Bushing

    Slide the neoprene bushing into position to seat securely in the bevel on the grounding sleeve.

  6. Attach Connector Body

    Place the connector body over the installed grounding sleeve and thread the gland nut onto the connector body.

  7. Tighten Gland Nut

    Tighten the gland nut to the specified torque. For a 1-1/2 inch hub size (relevant for 10551), tighten to 1200 in.-lbs.
