How to Install the LINK-C Deadbreak Cam Link Operable Connector System
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the LINK-C 600 amp deadbreak cam link operable connector system. DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation. This product should be installed only by competent personnel trained in high voltage electrical equipment safety practices.
Estimated time: 2h
Tools needed:
600ATM Operating Tool, Torque wrench, Hot stick, Welding equipment, Wire strippers, Socket wrench
Supplies needed:
ELASTIMOLD lubricant, 3/8-16 x 2 inch Studs, 3/8-16 Hex Nuts, Lockwashers, Alignment bracket hardware, #14 AWG or #12 AWG solid copper wire, Grounding connector, Mating 200 amp product
- Install 600 Amp Elbow onto Cable
Install the 600 amp elbow onto the cable according to the installation instructions supplied with the elbow. Ensure it will align with the stand-off plug.
- Install Stand-Off Plug (if applicable)
Weld three 3/8-16 x 2” studs to the faceplate per customer standard practice and dimensions. Install three hex nuts onto the studs to support the stand-off plug, ensuring it aligns with the bushing. Place the stand-off plug over the studs. Secure with three lockwashers and three hex nuts, tightening each to 12 foot-lbs torque. Verify the top surfaces of the bushing and stand-off plug are in-line.
- Install 600 Amp Bushing Extender
Clean and thoroughly lubricate the apparatus bushing and both interfaces of the 600 amp bushing extender with ELASTIMOLD lubricant. Install the bushing extender onto the apparatus bushing. Insert the 600ATM into the retainer contact, engage the internal hex broach, and thread the retainer contact into the apparatus bushing using a suitable tool on the 1” hex portion of the 600ATM. Torque to 50-60 ft-lbs.
- Install 600 Amp Elbow
Clean and lubricate the epoxy standoff plug and both interfaces of the 600 amp elbow with ELASTIMOLD lubricant. Install the elbow onto the epoxy standoff plug. Insert the 600AMT into the retainer contact through the hole in the compression lug, engage the internal hex broach, and thread into the epoxy standoff plug using a suitable tool on the 1” hex portion of the 600AMT. Torque to 50-60 ft-lbs.
- Attach Alignment Bracket to Bushing Extender
Remove the bushing extender clamp from the alignment bracket. Position the alignment bracket on the bushing extender 2.5 inches (63.5mm) from the grounding eye. Assemble the bushing extender clamp to the alignment bracket with the supplied hardware, torquing by alternating sides until clamp tabs are flush and tight.
- Attach Alignment Bracket to Elbow
Position the elbow in the alignment bracket so the elbow cuff is lined up evenly with the bushing extender cuff. Assemble the elbow clamp to the alignment bracket with the supplied hardware, torquing by alternating sides until clamp tabs are flush and tight. Ensure the elbow clamp notch faces the cable entrance of the elbow.
- Insert the LINK-C Connector
Clean and thoroughly lubricate both 600 ampere interfaces of the Link with ELASTIMOLD lubricant. Align the Link such that when inserted into the bushing extender and elbow, it is perpendicular to the switch faceplate. Insert the Link into the bushing extender and elbow, ensuring both lever arms are inside the alignment bracket legs. Engage the pivot pin into the slots in the alignment bracket legs. While pushing inward, move the lever arms downward with a hot stick eye to engage the roller pin and move the Link inward. Continue moving lever arms until perpendicular to the alignment bracket leg.
- Ground System and Install Mating Products
Ground the elbow by feeding a #14 AWG or #12 AWG solid copper wire through its grounding eye, twisting tight, and connecting to ground. Clean and lubricate the 200 amp interface on the Link. Ground and then install the desired mating product on the 200 amp interface per its supplied instructions. Ground the cable: if concentric neutral, twist wires and connect to ground; if using 20MA or 21MA devices, connect their ground lead to ground. For three-phase installations, tie all grounds from all three phases to a common ground point.
