How to Install the 262LR Loadbreak Elbow Connector

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe installation and initial setup of the 262LR Loadbreak Elbow Connector, including cable preparation, assembly, and grounding.

Estimated time: 1h 30m

Tools needed:

Probe Wrench, Crimp Tool, Wire Brush, Wire Strippers, Cable Cutting Tool, Hotstick

Supplies needed:

262LR Elbow Connector Housing, Compression Lug, Probe, Lubricant (Do Not Substitute), No. 14 AWG Copper Wire, Neutral Wire Connector, Vinyl Tape (if needed), Cold Shrink Tube (if needed), Conductive Copper Tape (if needed)

  1. De-energize and Inspect Components

    DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before beginning installation. Confirm the work area is clear of obstructions. Inspect all components for damage, proper fit, and compatibility with the cable and mating products. Thread the probe into the compression lug by hand to check for resistance; if resistance is encountered before full assembly, replace damaged components.

  2. Cable Training and Initial Preparation

    Train the cable to ensure adequate slack for ease of operation. Cut the cable squarely at the centerline of the bushing. Remove the outer jacket according to the specific cable type (e.g., 9-5/8” (240mm) for jacketed concentric neutral cable). Unwrap and manage neutral or drain wires as required for your cable type, binding them back if necessary. If using a cold shrink sealing kit, slide the cold shrink tube onto the cable, loose end first, before proceeding.

  3. Conductor and Insulation Preparation

    Remove the cable shield and insulation 2-1/8” (55mm) from the cable end, ensuring a square cut without nicking the conductor. Wire brush bare aluminum conductors thoroughly and immediately install the compression lug. Rotate the lug to spread the inhibitor. Position the compression lug so its contact threaded hole aligns with the bushing bore. Crimp the lug starting at the crimp line mark, rotating 180 degrees for each successive crimp. Carefully wipe off any excess inhibitor. Remove the insulation shield 6-7/8” (175mm) from the cable end. Bevel the insulation end a maximum of 1/8” (5mm). Thoroughly clean the insulation to remove all traces of dirt or excess inhibitor.

  4. Elbow Assembly

    Lubricate the cable insulation and the inside of the elbow housing with the supplied lubricant. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE other lubricants. 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 probe wrench until the wrench bends, indicating proper torque.

  5. Grounding

    Insert one end of a separate copper wire (No. 14 AWG / 2.5mm) or equivalent through the grounding eye on the elbow. Twist tightly, taking care not to damage the eye. Twist all neutral wires together and connect them to ground using an appropriate connector. Ensure adequate slack in the wires for elbow operation. If using a cold shrink grounding kit, refer to its specific instructions to complete the grounding installation.

  6. Connect Elbow to Bushing Plug

    DANGER: CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFORMER AND ELBOW ARE DE-ENERGIZED before connecting. Lubricate the receptacle portion of the elbow connector and the mating bushing with the supplied lubricant. Securely fasten a hotstick to the loadbreak connector pulling eye. Insert the probe tip approximately 2” (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.
