How to Install a 600/900 Series Deadbreak Connecting Plug

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of a 600/900 series deadbreak connecting plug, an accessory for power distribution systems.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Torque wrench, 3/8” hex bit socket, 600ATM (optional, or 3/8” hex bit socket)

Supplies needed:

Connecting Plug, Lubricant (DO NOT SUBSTITUTE), No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent

  1. De-energize Apparatus and Ensure Safety

    DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation or removal of parts. Do not touch or move energized products in the work area. This product should be installed only by competent personnel trained in good safety practices involving high voltage electrical equipment. Failure to follow these instructions will result in serious or fatal injury.

  2. Inspect Parts and Gather Tools

    Check the contents of the package to ensure they are complete and undamaged. Inspect all components for proper fit with the cable and/or mating products. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure.

  3. Install Stud into Mating Plug Device

    If the mating plug device (elbow, bushing extender, vault stretcher, or elbow end module) is not equipped with a stud, hand tighten the stud into the mating plug device. The stud must be threaded in until the start of the flats are below the contact surface.

  4. Clean and Lubricate Components

    Clean both the connecting plug and its mating part as indicated in the diagrams. Lubricate both parts with the supplied lubricant. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE other lubricants, as they may be harmful to the products. Ensure all surfaces remain clean.

  5. Connect and Torque Tighten the Plug

    Push the connecting plug into the elbow, bushing extender, vault stretcher, or elbow end module and engage the threads. Hold the contact of the connecting plug against the contact surface of the mating part. Use a 600ATM or a 3/8” hex bit socket and a torque wrench to tighten, exerting 50 to 60 foot-pounds (68 to 81 newton-meters) of torque.

  6. Ground the Connecting Plug (If Applicable)

    If applicable, insert one end of a No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent through the grounding eye on the connecting plug. Twist the wire tightly, taking care not to damage the eye. Connect the other end of the wire to ground.
