How to Install the ELASTIMOLD TCT Outdoor Transmission Cable Termination
This guide provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of the ELASTIMOLD TCT outdoor transmission cable termination, including cable preparation, assembly, grounding, and final mounting.
Estimated time: 4h
Tools needed:
Measuring Tape, Cable Stripping Tool, Hose Clamp, Cable Cleaner, Winch Assembly, Crimping Tool, Wire Brush, Soldering Iron, Heat Gun, Screwdriver
Supplies needed:
Spade Contact (2 or 4 hole), Heat Shrink Sleeve, Semi-conductive Paint (supplied with kit), Vinyl Tape, Lubricant (supplied with kit), Mastic, Scintillation Ring, #12 AWG Copper Drain Wire, Flat Braid, Silicone Tape, Mounting Hardware for Supporting Structure (customer supplied)
- Prepare the Cable End
DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation. Straighten the cable and place it in its final position, using the spade contact as a guide. Square cut the cable and note the depth 'X' of the spade contact hole. Carefully remove the outer jacket material to expose the cable shield, measuring 45.5 inches (111.6 cm) from the end of the cable. Slide the heat shrink sleeve onto the cable.
- Remove Shield and Non-Metallic Screen
Remove the cable shield to a distance of 43.5 inches (110.5 cm) from the end of the cable. Remove the non-metallic screen, measuring 40 inches (101.5 cm) from the end of the conductor. Do not cut or nick the exposed insulation, as this could result in cable failure. Chamfer the non-metallic screen edge for a minimum of 1/2 inch (1.5 cm).
- Cut and Chamfer Cable Insulation
Using a hose clamp as a guide, square cut the cable insulation at a distance of X+1 inch from the end of the conductor, being careful not to nick the conductor (refer to Step 1 for 'X' measurement). Remove the hose clamp. Sand out all nicks and abrasions on the extruded non-metallic screen chamfer and cable insulation. Chamfer the edge of the cable insulation for approximately 3 inches (7.5 cm).
- Clean and Paint Cable Insulation
Using cable cleaner, clean the cable insulation and extruded non-metallic screen, cleaning towards the outer jacket to prevent semi-conductive particles from contaminating the insulation. Place a vinyl tape marker on the cable insulation surface at 39.5 inches (100.5 cm) from the end of the conductor. Stir the supplied semi-conductive paint well. Paint the exposed insulation and a minimum of 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the extruded non-metallic screen. Remove the vinyl tape within 5 to 15 minutes, ensuring the paint edge is smooth and square. Allow the paint to dry for 60 minutes.
- Assemble Clamps and Lubricate Cable
Place a vinyl tape marker onto the cable non-metallic shield 2 inches (5 cm) from the edge of the paint. Assemble the Cable Clamp at least 55 inches (140 cm) back from the conductor and tighten it securely. Place the Winch Assembly in front of the Cable Clamp and attach its stationary hooks to the Cable Clamp. Attach the Adapter Plates to the Housing Clamp with the supplied bolts. Assemble the Housing Clamp around the Terminator Base Section. Extend the steel cable(s) on the Winch Assembly until the hooks reach the Housing Clamp, then hook the cables to the Housing Clamp. Thoroughly lubricate the cable in the specified area and direction with the supplied lubricant; do not substitute.
- Install Terminator Sections
Assemble the Terminator Base Section onto the cable approximately 12 inches from the end of the conductor. Release tension on each steel cable, then extend the steel cables and Housing Clamp. Position the Terminator Module Section in the Housing Clamp. Install the units until they overlap and continue assembling the mated units until the Terminator Base Section is flush with the tape marker. Remove the Winch Assembly, Housing Clamp, Adapter Plate, and Cable Clamp.
- Connect Conductor and Apply Mastic
Remove the tape marker on the insulation shield. Remove the cut section of insulation on the cable to expose the conductor. Wirebrush the conductor of the cable and immediately insert it into the spade contact. Crimp the connector according to the enclosed crimping instructions. Remove any excess inhibitor where applicable. Apply two layers of mastic: one at the end of the stress cone and one 2 inches (5 cm) back from the end of the cable jacket.
- Install Grounding and Seal Terminator
Install the scintillation ring and the #12 AWG copper drain wire. Solder the flat braid and the #12 drain wire to the shield. Apply a second layer of mastic over the drain wire, on top of the previously applied mastic around the base of the stress cone. Apply a second layer of mastic over the flat braid, on top of the previously applied mastic on the cable jacket. Slide the heat shrink sleeve up to the grounding eye of the terminator base. Apply heat to the sleeve, starting in the middle and continuing towards each end, until mastic sealer squeezes from the ends. Connect the flat braid to the system ground. Seal the cable end with mastic tape between the contact and cable insulation. Apply two half-lapped layers of silicone tape covering the crimp connector, mastic tape, and the upper portion of the terminator skirt.
- Mount Terminated Cables
Mount the terminated cables to a supporting structure (supplied by customer). Ensure a minimum clearance of 4.0 inches (10 cm) between the terminator stress cone base and the supporting structure. Ensure a minimum clearance of 44.0 inches (112 cm) from the supporting structure to the end of the terminator. DANGER: All apparatus must be installed and operated in accordance with individual user, local, and national work rules. Do not touch or move energized products.
