How to Install 755/775DLR Direct Test Elbow Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing 755/775DLR Direct Test Elbow Connectors, including cable preparation, lug crimping, and connection to high voltage apparatus. This product should be installed only by competent personnel trained in good safety practices involving high voltage electrical equipment.

Estimated time: 2h

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Wire brush, Hotstick tool, Multimeter or specific voltage meter (e.g., H/D Electric Co. Mark I, Ross Meter Hi-ZVMt25SE-A/VM25B, CHANCER Auto-Ranging Voltage Indicator C403-3374), Vinyl plastic tape (if using flat metallic tape shield), Tape retainer (if using fabric tape shield), Tape marker (if using fabric tape, longitudinally corrugated, or semi-con shield)

Supplies needed:

755/775DLR Elbow, Cable Adapter, Compression Lug, Insulating Plug with Cap, Lubricant, Stud Prepack, 3-Hose Clamps, Grounding wire (at least No. 14 AWG copper), Suitable ground connector, Cable waterproofing material, Direct Voltage Test Port Adapter (if performing test), Mating product (e.g., apparatus bushing, tap plug, tap well)

  1. Ensure Safety and Prepare Workspace

    DANGER: De-energize all apparatus before beginning installation or removal of parts. Verify the circuit is de-energized using appropriate safety procedures. Inspect all components for damage, proper rating, and compatibility with mating parts. Gather all required tools and maintain a clean work area.

  2. Position Cable and Initial Cut

    Position the cable in its final assembled location, ensuring enough slack for elbow removal. For concentric neutral cable, unwind the neutral wires. Cut the cable 1-3/4 inches (45mm) from the centerline of the mating product.

  3. Clean Cable Outer Surface

    Clean the outer surface of the cable for a distance of 24 inches (610mm), or up to the bent-back concentric neutral wires.

  4. Prepare Cable Jacket and Shield

    Follow the specific instructions for your cable type: remove the outer jacket to 13-5/8 inches (340mm), fold back shield wires, or remove tape/corrugated shields to specified dimensions (10-5/8 to 11-5/8 inches). If using Unishield or lead sheath cable, refer to 10TL cable shield adapter instructions. Do not cut or nick cable insulation when removing semi-con shield.

  5. Bevel Insulation and Install Cable Adapter

    Bevel the end of the cable insulation at a 45-degree angle, approximately 1/4 inch (6mm) back. Thoroughly clean and then lubricate the cable insulation, working towards the semi-con shield. Install the cable adapter, small end first, until it is flush with the edge of the tape marker.

  6. Prepare Conductor for Lug

    Remove the protruding cable insulation, cutting it even with the end of the cable adapter. Ensure the exposed bare conductor length is between 4-5/8 inches (117mm) to 5 inches (127mm). Do not cut or nick the cable adapter or the conductor.

  7. Crimp Compression Lug

    Fully insert the conductor into the compression lug (wire brush aluminum conductors immediately before insertion). Measure the 'Check Dimension' before crimping; it must be less than 6-7/8 inches (175mm). Crimp the lug according to its supplied instructions. Wipe all excess inhibitor from the lug and cable adapter. After crimping, the distance from the lug end to the cable adapter should be 6-7/8 to 7-5/8 inches (175-194mm).

  8. Install Elbow onto Cable Adapter

    Lubricate the cable adapter and the inside of the elbow's cable entrance. Install the elbow onto the cable adapter until it cannot advance further. Verify the cable adapter is still flush with the tape marker. Remove the tape marker.

  9. Prepare Mating Product

    DANGER: Do not connect or disconnect mating products while energized. Remove protective caps from both the elbow and the mating part. Hand tighten the threaded stud (supplied with the elbow) into the mating part if it's not already equipped. Clean and lubricate both the elbow and the mating part with the supplied lubricant.

  10. Connect Elbow to Mating Product

    Push the elbow onto the mating part, carefully aligning the hole in the compression lug with the stud on the mating part.

  11. Connect Opposite End Mating Part (if applicable)

    If applicable, clean and lubricate the mating part for the opposite end of the elbow. Insert this mating part into the elbow, engage the threads, and hand tighten. Torque the mating part according to its specific instructions.

  12. Install Insulating Plug and Cap (if used)

    If an insulating plug is used as a mating part, clean and lubricate the inner surface of the voltage detection cap. Place the cap on the elbow and push down firmly until it snaps into place.

  13. Ground the Cable Shield and Waterproof

    Insert one end of a grounding wire (at least No. 14 AWG copper) through the grounding eye and twist to form a small loop. Connect this wire to ground using a suitable connector. The cable shield must be grounded according to grounding device instructions or an alternate method. Waterproof the cable jacket at this point to prevent moisture ingress.

  14. Perform Direct Voltage Test (Optional)

    CAUTION: Insertion of any object other than the appropriate direct voltage test port adapter and meter into the direct test port can cause serious injury. If performing a direct voltage test, use a compatible adapter (e.g., 200TC-1, 200TC-2, 200TC-4) and meter. Refer to the separate operating instructions for the specific direct voltage test port adapter and voltage meter/indicator.
