How to Install the 200 ECS-G3 Jacketed Cable Grounding and Sealing Kit
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the 200 ECS-G3 Jacketed Cable Grounding and Sealing Kit on jacketed copper tape shielded cables, ensuring proper grounding and sealing.
Estimated time: 1h
Tools needed:
Cable knife, Wire strippers, Cleaning cloth
Supplies needed:
Cold Shrink Tube, Mastic, Flat Copper Braid, Conductive Copper Tape, Spring Coil, Vinyl Tape, Suitable grounding connector, #14 AWG Copper Wire
- Prepare Cable and Position Cold Shrink Tube
DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before beginning installation. Wipe the outer jacket of the cable clean for a distance of 30 inches (750mm). Slide the cold shrink tube (loose end first) onto the cable for a distance of 18 inches (458mm).
- Strip Cable Jacket and Copper Tape Shield
Carefully remove the outer jacket for a distance of 4 inches (102mm) beyond the semi-con shield skive dimension as recommended by the product manufacturer. Next, remove the copper tape shield for a distance of 1 1/2 inches (38mm) from the end of the semi-con shield.
- Secure Shield and Apply Initial Mastic
Wrap conductive copper tape around the edge of the remaining copper tape shield to keep it securely in place. Then, apply one wrap of mastic over this area.
- Install and Secure Copper Braid with Spring Coil
Slightly flare the end of the flat copper braid that contains the solder block and place it on the copper shield, ensuring it is flush against the cable jacket. Wrap the spring coil around the braid and cable for two complete turns. Bend the braid back over the spring, then wrap the remainder of the spring coil around both the braid and cable. Finger tighten the spring coil and secure its end with a short piece of conductive copper tape. Verify that the solder block of the braid is centered on top of the mastic tape.
- Apply Additional Mastic and Vinyl Tape
Apply mastic over the installed braid. Overwrap this mastic with two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape. Wrap a third piece of mastic around the cable entrance of the connector being used. Overwrap this mastic with two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape for a complete seal.
- Activate Cold Shrink Tube
Pull the loose end of the cold shrink tube's cord from the back and unwind it in a clockwise direction until the plastic core is flush with the end of the cold shrink tube. Slide the cold shrink tube into its final position and continue to unwind the cord clockwise. The cold shrink tube will collapse, sealing the product end first. IMPORTANT: Ensure the tube overlaps the elbow or joint end by at least 1 inch (25mm) for a proper seal when no cable adapters are used, or overlaps the adapter and butts against the accompanying housing when adapters are used.
- Ground the Assembly
Using a suitable connector (not supplied with this kit) and #14 AWG copper wire, ground the entire assembly in accordance with standard utility practices and local electrical standards.
