This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of ATDG automatic steel strand splices, ensuring secure connections for common, high strength, galvanized, and aluminized steel strands.
Estimated time: 15m
Tools needed:
Sharp Cable Cutters
Supplies needed:
Electrical Tape
- Prepare Work Area and Components
Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before beginning installation or removal of any parts. Inspect the package contents for completeness and damage. Verify all components fit properly with the strand and mating products. Have all required tools ready and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure.
- Prepare Steel Strand Ends
Straighten the strand end to ensure easy installation and prevent jaw malfunction. If the strand is deformed or out of lay, trim the end to provide a straight and square segment. If not using sharp cable cutters, tape the strand before cutting, then remove the tape after cutting.
- Mark Strand for Full Insertion
Using the automatic splice as a gauge, apply tape or make a mark on the strand to indicate the full insertion depth (half the splice length). This mark will help verify proper insertion later.
- Insert First Strand
Remove any remaining tape from the strand end. Place the prepared strand end into the pilot cup (strand guide) at the tip of the splice cartridge. With a smooth, straight thrust, push the strand into the cartridge until it bottoms out. Pull on the strand by hand to set the internal jaws. Verify full insertion by checking the position of the tape/mark applied in Step 3; if the mark is more than 1/2 inch away from the tip of the cartridge, the strand is not properly installed and must be re-inserted.
- Insert Second Strand and Apply Tension
Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for the other side of the splice, ensuring the second strand is also fully inserted and the jaws are set. Once both strands are securely in place, apply tension as required to complete the installation, ensuring the strand holds firmly inside the cartridge.
