How to Install the 3701A4 Loadbreak Bushing Insert
This guide provides instructions for the safe and proper installation of the 3701A4 Loadbreak Bushing Insert, designed for 35kV class loadbreak connections in apparatus bushing wells. All apparatus must be de-energized during installation.
Estimated time: 30m
Supplies needed:
3701A4 Loadbreak Bushing Insert, Lubricant, Copper wire (No. 14 AWG or equivalent), Suitable connector for grounding wire
- Prepare the Bushing Well and Insert
Inspect the apparatus bushing well to ensure it is dry and free from all contaminants. Remove the protective shipping cover from the bushing insert. Lubricate the bushing well interface area of the bushing insert with the supplied lubricant or ELASTIMOLD approved lubricants. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE other lubricants as they may be harmful.
- Install the Bushing Insert
Place the lubricated portion of the bushing insert into the apparatus bushing well. Hand tighten the bushing insert in a clockwise direction until it bottoms.
- Connect the Electrostatic Grounding Wire
Push a length of copper wire (No. 14 AWG (2,5mm2) or equivalent) through one of the grounding tabs on the bushing insert. Make a small loop and twist it tight, taking care not to damage the grounding tab. Connect the free end of the electrostatic grounding wire to the system ground using a suitable connector. Ensure the grounding wire does not contact the bushing interface or adjacent interfaces or interfere with accessories.
- Prepare for Mating Products or Storage
Thoroughly wipe the bushing interface clean of any contaminants and lubricate with the supplied lubricant. Install the mating products to the bushing insert following their specific instructions. If the bushing insert is not to be immediately mated, replace the shipping cover. Do not energize or submerge the apparatus with only the shipping cover on the bushing insert, as it is not insulated or watertight.
