How to Install the 1535AFB-3 Basic Bracket

Installation guide for mounting and securing cables using the 1535AFB-3 basic bracket.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Pliers

Supplies needed:

Aluma---Form Bracket, Polyethylene Cable Wrap, Snap Hose Clamps, Lubricant, Mounting screws, Grounding connector

  1. Install Mounting Brackets (if applicable)

    If using a pole bracket, crossarm bracket, or riser pole bracket, install it first according to its separate instructions.

  2. Attach the Basic Bracket

    Attach the 1535AFB-3 basic bracket to the installed mounting bracket or other mounting surface. Ensure the arrow on the 1535AFB-3 is pointing upwards.

  3. Prepare for Cable Placement

    Remove the protective sheet from the adhesive surface on the 1535AFB-3 bracket.

  4. Position the Cable

    Place the cable, including any concentric neutral wires, against the adhesive surface. Ensure enough length is available for terminator installation.

  5. Secure the Cable with Tie Wrap

    Wind the tie wrap 1.5 to 2 turns around the top tie horn and then around the cable. Ensure concentric neutral wires are under the tie wrap.

  6. Fasten Hose Clamps and Trim Wrap

    Fasten a snap hose clamp onto the middle of each tie horn. Cut off any excess tie wrap.

  7. Install Terminator

    Install the terminator according to the instructions provided with it.
