How to Install 261LRJS/262LRJS Loadbreak Elbow Connectors
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe installation of 261LRJS (without test point) and 262LRJS (with test point) Loadbreak Elbow Connectors with Jacket Seal. Ensure all apparatus is de-energized and installation is performed by competent personnel trained in high voltage safety practices.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Crimp tool, Wire brush, Wire strippers, Probe wrench, Hotstick
Supplies needed:
Vinyl tape, No. 14 AWG copper wire (or 2.5mm equivalent), Appropriate grounding connector
- Perform Pre-Installation Checks and Safety Review
DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation. This product should be installed only by competent personnel trained in good safety practices involving high voltage electrical equipment. Failure to follow instructions will result in damage or serious injury. Check package contents for completeness and damage. Verify all components fit properly with the cable and mating products. Thread the probe into the compression lug to check for damage; replace if resistance is encountered. Read all instructions before starting. Have all required tools ready and maintain cleanliness. If a test point cap is not installed, lubricate and install it.
- Train and Prepare Cable for Connection
Train the cable to ensure sufficient slack for ease of operation. Pull extra cable 24-26 inches beyond the bushing centerline and mark it. Remove the outer jacket 7-3/4 to 8 inches back from the tape mark. Unwrap the neutral wires past the bushing centerline. Cut the excess cable squarely at the bushing centerline.
- Apply Mastic and Tape to Cable Jacket
Wrap one strip of mastic, stretching slightly, around the cable jacket. Bend all neutral wires straight back over the mastic and along the cable, pressing them into the mastic. Wrap a second mastic strip completely around the outer jacket, overlapping the imbedded neutral wires. Use a third strip if needed to build up the diameter, then cover all mastic with vinyl tape.
- Prepare Cable End and Install Compression Lug
Remove the insulation shield and insulation from the cable end, cutting squarely without nicking the conductor. Wire brush bare aluminum conductors immediately and install the compression lug, rotating it to spread inhibitor. Position the lug so the contact threaded hole aligns with the bushing bore. Crimp the lug according to the chart, starting at the crimp line mark and rotating 180 degrees for each successive crimp. Carefully wipe off any excessive inhibitor. Remove the insulation shield as shown in the diagram and bevel the insulation end by a maximum of 1/8 inch. Thoroughly clean the insulation to remove all traces of conductive residue.
- Assemble Elbow Connector
Lubricate the cable insulation and the inside of the elbow housing using only the supplied lubricant; do not substitute. Keep the insulation clean. Slide the elbow connector onto the cable using a back-and-forth twisting motion. Wipe off all excess lubricant. Align the elbow with the compression lug's threaded hole. Thread the probe into the lug by hand, ensuring it turns freely for approximately four turns before becoming snug. Tighten the probe with the supplied wrench until the wrench bends.
- Connect Concentric Neutral Wires
Insert one end of a separate No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent through the grounding eye on the elbow. Twist it tightly, taking care not to damage the eye. Pull the hood over the concentric neutral seal area on the cable by pulling the tabs or rolling the seal down. Twist all neutral wires together and connect them to ground using an appropriate connector. Ensure adequate slack in the wires for elbow operation.
- Connect Elbow to Mating Bushing
WARNING: Ensure the transformer and elbow are known to be de-energized before proceeding. Lubricate the receptacle portion of the elbow connector and the mating bushing with the supplied lubricant. Remove the insulated cap from the bushing by attaching a hotstick tool to its pulling eye. Securely fasten the hotstick to the loadbreak connector pulling eye. Insert the probe tip approximately 2 inches (50mm) into the bushing. Immediately push the elbow home with a fast, firm, straight motion, using sufficient force to engage the internal lock on the elbow connector and bushing interface. Do not hold in the partially inserted position.
