How to Install the 10EP Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for safely installing the 10EP Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug onto an Elastimold 200amp Deadbreak or Loadbreak elbow, including initial setup and voltage testing. Ensure all apparatus are de-energized before beginning installation.
Estimated time: 15m
Tools needed:
Pliers, Hotstick, Suitable sensing device
Supplies needed:
10EP Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug, Lubricant, Male contact, No. 14 AWG (2.5mm2) copper wire, Silicone grease
- Lubricate the Insulating Plug
Lightly lubricate the surface of the insulating plug with the supplied or ELASTIMOLD approved lubricant for approximately 4-1/2 inches from the second chamfered step. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE other lubricants, as they may be harmful to the product or its mating parts.
- Position and Insert the Insulating Plug
Position the insulating plug so its flat contact area faces the receptacle end of the elbow connector. Slide the 10EP into the elbow connector until it cannot advance any further. Look into the receptacle end of the elbow to verify the threaded hole in the 10EP is properly positioned to accept the male contact. If not, use pliers on the exposed end of the 10EP to turn it into position.
- Install and Tighten the Male Contact
Remove the protective cap from the threads of the male contact. Insert the threaded end of the male contact into the threaded hole of the insulating plug located in the receptacle end of the elbow. Hand tighten this contact. SNUG TIGHTEN ONLY to avoid stripping threads; do not tighten until a wrench bends as indicated in the elbow connector instructions.
- Complete Elbow Assembly and Grounding
Lightly lubricate both the bushing and elbow connector mating surfaces. Complete the elbow assembly as indicated in the specific instructions for the elbow. Ground the elbow by connecting a piece of wire equivalent to No. 14 AWG (2.5mm2) copper from the apparatus ground to the elbow grounding eye.
- Remove the Test Point Cap
Using a hotstick, remove the test point cap. When removing the cap, PEEL IT OFF AT AN ANGLE rather than pulling directly in line with the test point assembly.
- Perform Voltage Test
WARNING: The voltage test point is a capacitance device and is NOT DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE CONDUCTOR. Do not use conventional voltage measuring equipment. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for the specific meter used. Test with a suitable sensing device, made for use with separable connectors manufactured with capacitive test points, to determine if the cable is energized. Contamination, moisture, dirt, or using the wrong measuring equipment can provide a false “no voltage” indication. To prevent serious or fatal injury, treat the elbow as energized until the “no voltage” test point indication is confirmed by other means.
- Replace the Test Point Cap
After voltage detection has been made, clean and lubricate the inside surface of the cap with silicone grease and replace it securely on the test point.
