How to Install the 10EP Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the 10EP Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug onto an Elastimold 200amp Deadbreak or Loadbreak elbow, including initial setup and voltage testing procedures.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Pliers, Hotstick, Suitable sensing device (capacitive voltage tester)
Supplies needed:
Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug, Lubricant, Male contact, No. 14 AWG (2.5mm2) copper wire, Silicone grease
- Prepare for Installation and Ensure Safety
DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before beginning installation or removal. Inspect all parts for damage, proper rating, and compatibility with mating products. Verify package contents are complete and undamaged. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure. This product must be installed only by competent personnel trained in high voltage electrical equipment safety practices.
- Lubricate the Insulating Plug
Lightly lubricate the surface of the insulating plug with the supplied lubricant or an 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. If the threaded hole in the 10EP is not properly aligned to accept the male contact, use pliers on the exposed end of the 10EP to rotate it into the correct 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 the wrench bends as indicated in the elbow connector instructions.
- Complete Assembly and Ground the Elbow
Lightly lubricate both the bushing and elbow connector mating surfaces. Complete the assembly as specified in the 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.
- Perform Voltage Test (Safety Critical)
WARNING: The voltage test point is a capacitance device, not directly connected to the conductor. Do not use conventional voltage measuring equipment. Remove the test point cap with a hotstick, peeling it off at an angle. Use a suitable sensing device, made for capacitive test points, following its manufacturer’s directions, to determine if the cable is energized. Treat the elbow as energized until the 'no voltage' indication is confirmed by other means to prevent serious or fatal injury.
- Replace Test Point Cap
After completing voltage detection, clean and lubricate the inside surface of the test point cap with silicone grease. Carefully replace the cap onto the test point, ensuring a secure fit.
