How to Install the K151LSP Non-Separable Straight Plug
This guide provides detailed instructions for the safe installation of the K151LSP Non-Separable Straight Plug onto solid dielectric type cable and its connection to a mating K151LSR receptacle. Ensure all apparatus are de-energized before beginning installation to prevent serious or fatal injury.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Cable cutting tool, Wire strippers, Crimp tool (with appropriate dies), Wire brush, Rag, Approved solvent
Supplies needed:
Conductor Contact (female), Nylon Venting Rod, Lubricant (supplied with product), K151LSR Mating Receptacle, #14AWG or equivalent copper wire, Silicone grease, Sealing material, Solid dielectric type cable
- Prepare Cable Jacket and Shield
For Jacketed Concentric Neutral cable, cut and remove the cable jacket 8 inches from the cable end. Ensure sufficient concentric neutral wires are available for connecting to the ground point. For Copper Tape Shield cable, cut and remove the cable jacket 7-1/2 inches from the cable end, then remove the copper tape shield 6-1/2 inches from the end of the cable. If using an ECS or MA grounding device, follow its specific installation instructions for outer jacket cut back.
- Prepare Conductor Insulation
Remove 1-1/8 inches of cable insulation and conductive shield. For #1 stranded/compressed and #1/0 compressed/solid or larger aluminum cable, remove 1-7/8 inches. Cut squarely; do not pencil the cut. Wire brush bare aluminum conductors immediately before proceeding to the next step.
- Crimp Socket Terminal
Immediately insert the bared conductor into the crimp barrel, ensuring the conductor remains fully seated in the connector. Crimp the socket terminal according to the crimp chart provided with the contact. Start the crimps at the crimp line imprinted on the crimp barrel and rotate each successive crimp or indent at least 90 degrees. When using aluminum cable, carefully wipe any excess inhibitor from the contact and cable insulation.
- Prepare Semi-Conductive Shield and Insulation
Temporarily remove the plastic pin. Remove the semi-conductive shield to a point 7-3/4 to 7-13/16 inches back from the end of the socket with a straight, smooth, squared cut. Do not cut or nick the insulation. Pencil the insulation 1/8 inch. Replace the plastic pin. Clean the outer jacket and thoroughly clean the insulation with a rag wet with an approved solvent, wiping from the end of the cable toward the outer jacket, to remove all traces of semi-conducting residue. If using an ECS or MA grounding device, install it now following its appropriate instructions.
- Lubricate Cable and Plug Housing
Keep the cable insulation and plug clean. Apply the supplied lubricant sparingly to the cable as indicated in the product documentation and to the inside of the plug housing. Do not substitute lubricants, as other types may be harmful to this product or its mating product.
- Install Plug Assembly on Cable
Push the cable into the housing until the leading edge of the socket contact is flush with the front edge of the plug. Remove the plastic pin from the socket and discard it.
- Connect to Mating Receptacle
Lubricate the nose of the plug with silicone grease. Place the nylon rod into the receptacle face until it bottoms (approximately 1-3/4 inches), taking care to ensure the nylon rod is not cut while mating parts, which could leave material inside the interface. Insert the plug assembly into the receptacle as far as possible. When mating, the assembler will feel the contact assembly "CLICK" and lock into its final position.
- Verify Connection and Remove Nylon Rod
Verify the locking contact by pulling on the cables; do not pull the housing. If the parts separate, repeat steps 7B and 7C. Pull out and remove the nylon rod.
- Connect Grounding
If an ELASTIMOLD grounding device is not being used, connect a length of #14AWG or equivalent customer-supplied copper wire through the grounding tab and twist tightly as shown in the product diagram. Then, connect this grounding assembly to the system ground by merging it with the cable shield of each cable. Seal the grounding wires and connections to prevent corrosion.
