How to Install the 167DRG Insulated Cap with Ground Lead

This guide provides instructions for safely installing the 167DRG Insulated Cap with Ground Lead onto a 15kV class loadbreak bushing interface, ensuring proper insulation, shielding, and watersealing.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hotstick

Supplies needed:

167DRG Insulated Cap with Ground Lead, Lubricant

  1. Prepare for Installation and Safety Checks

    Before starting, ensure all apparatus is de-energized. Inspect the 167DRG Insulated Cap and mating parts for damage, proper rating, and compatibility. Gather all required tools and maintain a clean work area. This product should only be installed by competent personnel trained in high voltage safety practices.

  2. Connect the Electrostatic Grounding Wire

    Connect the free end of the electrostatic grounding wire to the system ground. Ensure enough slack for hot-stick operation and train the wire so it does not contact the bushing interface during operation. WARNING: If the ground lead disconnects during operation, do not attempt to reattach without first pulling the insulated cap off the bushing with the hotstick.

  3. Prepare the Insulated Cap for Mating

    Remove the protective cover from the insulated cap. Lubricate the cap’s internal mating surface using only the supplied or ELASTIMOLD approved lubricant. Do not substitute other lubricants, as they may be harmful to this product and its mating products. Keep the internal mating surface free from dirt and grime.

  4. Install the Insulated Cap onto the Bushing

    Firmly attach a hotstick to the insulated cap's pulling eye. Carefully insert the male contact of the insulated cap into the loadbreak bushing. Push the cap home with a fast, firm, straight motion, ensuring it is fully mated and the locking ring is seated. Once fully seated, detach the hotstick from the insulated cap.
