How to Install 373 J2, J3, J4 Loadbreak Junctions
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe mounting, wiring, and initial setup of the 373 J2, J3, or J4 two-, three-, and four-point loadbreak junctions on flat or curved surfaces.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Wrench, Wire strippers, Hotstick, Suitable voltage sensing device
Supplies needed:
373 J2, J3, or J4 Loadbreak Junction (assembled with back plate), Universal mounting brackets with hardware, Lubricant, Mounting bolts (user supplied, 17/32" or 13mm diameter), Grounding wire (No. 10 Solid to No. 1 Stranded), Appropriate HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s), Mating products (e.g., Elastimold 35kV class loadbreak connectors), Silicone grease
- De-energize Apparatus and Inspect Parts
DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation or removal of parts. Inspect all components for damage, proper rating, and compatibility with mating parts before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions will result in damage to the product and serious or fatal injury.
- Remove Shipping Covers
If the product is supplied with protective shipping cover(s), remove them. Replace these shipping cover(s) with the appropriate HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s) before submerging or energizing the circuit. Do not use shipping covers for insulation.
- Prepare Mounting Brackets
Loosely attach the universal mounting brackets to the junction back plate. Place the entire assembly against the desired mounting surface (flat or curved wall). Adjust the brackets for proper alignment and mark their exact location on the wall.
- Mount Brackets to Wall
Detach the universal mounting brackets from the junction back plate. Mount the brackets securely on the wall according to the marks made in Step 3. Ensure to use user-supplied bolts that fit the 17/32" (13mm) diameter holes. One or both brackets can be inverted to adjust bolt center distances.
- Fasten Junction to Brackets
With the universal mounting brackets securely fastened to the wall, attach the back plate (with the junction already attached) to the mounted brackets. Verify that the parking stands are in the upright position.
- Adjust Mounting Angle
Adjust the mounting angle of the junction to the desired position. The angle is adjustable from 0° through 90° above or below the horizontal in 15° increments.
- Tighten All Bolts
Securely tighten all bolts on the mounting brackets and the junction assembly. Ensure all connections are firm to prevent any movement during operation.
- Ground the Back Plate
Ground the junction back plate using the provided grounding lug. This lug accommodates grounding wire sizes from No. 10 Solid to No. 1 Stranded. Ensure a secure and proper ground connection.
- Prepare and Install Mating Products
Thoroughly wipe the bushing interface clean of any contaminants. Lubricate the bushing interface with the supplied lubricant. Install the mating products (e.g., loadbreak elbow connectors) to the bushing insert, following the specific instructions provided with those mating products.
- Install Insulated Caps on Unused Interfaces
WARNING: If all operating interfaces are not utilized, an Elastimold 375DR insulated cap MUST be installed on the unused interface or interfaces before energization. Do NOT use protective shipping covers for this function, as they are not insulated.
- Perform Voltage Test (Optional but Recommended)
To establish if the circuit is energized, remove the test point cap with a hotstick, peeling it off at an angle. WARNING: The voltage test point is a capacitance device; do not use conventional voltage measuring equipment. Use a suitable sensing device made for capacitive test points, following its manufacturer’s directions. Treat the elbow as energized until the 'no voltage' indication is confirmed by other means to prevent serious or fatal injury.
- Replace Test Point Cap
After voltage detection has been made, clean and lubricate the inside surface of the test point cap with silicone grease. Carefully replace the cap onto the test point, ensuring a secure fit.
