How to Install the 3701A3-H Loadbreak Bushing Insert
Instructions for installing the 3701A3-H Loadbreak Bushing Insert into apparatus for 35KV class loadbreak connectors.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Pliers
Supplies needed:
Lubricant (supplied), Copper wire (No. 14 AWG or equivalent), Suitable connector for system ground, Insulated cap or grounding elbow connector (if not immediately mating)
- Prepare the apparatus and bushing insert
Ensure the apparatus bushing well is dry and free from contaminants. Remove the protective shipping cap from the bushing insert. Lubricate the bushing well interface area of the bushing insert with the supplied lubricant. Do not substitute lubricants.
- Install the bushing insert
Place the lubricated bushing insert into the apparatus bushing well. Hand tighten the bushing insert clockwise until it bottoms.
- Connect the electrostatic grounding wire
Thread a length of No. 14 AWG (2.5mm²) copper wire through one of the grounding tabs on the bushing insert. Create a small loop and twist it tight, being careful not to damage the tab. Connect the free end of this wire to the system ground using a suitable connector. Ensure the grounding wire does not contact the bushing interface or interfere with nearby components.
- Complete the installation and mating
Thoroughly clean and lubricate the bushing insert interface. Install mating products (e.g., elbow connector) according to their specific instructions. If not immediately mating, replace the shipping cover. Do not energize or submerge the apparatus with the shipping cover in place, as it is not insulated or watertight.
