How to Install the 151SR/K151SR Straight Receptacle

This guide provides detailed instructions for the safe and proper installation of the 151SR/K151SR Straight Receptacle, designed to connect solid dielectric type cables to other Elastimold products or electrical apparatus. Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before beginning installation.

Estimated time: 1h 30m

Tools needed:

Cable cutting tool, Wire strippers, Wire brush, Crimp tool, Rag, Approved solvent

Supplies needed:

151SR/K151SR Straight Receptacle, Conductor Contact (male), Nylon Venting Rod, Lubricant (supplied), Crimp Chart, Solid dielectric type cable, Elastimold bail, #14 AWG copper wire (or equivalent), Silicone grease (for mating plug), Protective cap or Elastimold insulating plug (K150DP) if not immediately connecting

  1. Prepare the Cable Jacket

    De-energize all apparatus. For jacketed concentric neutral cable, cut and remove the cable jacket 8 inches from the cable end, ensuring sufficient concentric neutral wires for grounding. 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 instructions for outer jacket cut back.

  2. Prepare Cable Insulation and Conductor

    Remove 7/8 to 1 inch of cable insulation and conductive shield. For #1 stranded/compressed and #1/0 compressed/solid aluminum cable, remove 1 3/4 to 1 7/8 inches. Cut the insulation squarely, do not pencil. Wire brush any bare aluminum conductors and immediately insert them into the crimp barrel, which contains an inhibitor.

  3. Crimp the Socket Terminal

    Crimp the socket terminal onto the bared conductor, ensuring the conductor remains fully seated in the connector. Refer to the crimp chart provided with the contact. Start crimps at the crimp line on the barrel and rotate each successive crimp or indent 90 degrees. If using aluminum cable, carefully wipe any excess inhibitor from the contact and cable insulation.

  4. Prepare Semi-Conductive Shield and Clean Insulation

    Remove the semi-conductive shield to a point 7 9/16 to 7 5/8 inches back from the end of the pin with a straight, smooth, squared cut. DO NOT CUT OR NICK THE INSULATION. Pencil the insulation 1/8 inch. Clean the outer jacket and thoroughly clean the insulation to remove all traces of semi-conducting residue by wiping with a rag wet with an approved solvent. Always wipe from the end of the cable toward the outer jacket. If using an ECS or MA grounding device, install it following its appropriate instructions.

  5. Lubricate the Cable and Receptacle

    Remove the protective cap from the straight receptacle. Maintain cleanliness of the cable insulation and receptacle. Apply the supplied lubricant sparingly to the cable as indicated and to the inside of the housing. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE with other lubricants, as they may harm the product or its mating product.

  6. Insert Cable into Receptacle Housing

    Push the cable into the housing until the base of the pin chamfer is flush with the inside face of the receptacle. If the receptacle is not to be immediately connected, replace it with a protective cover. Note that the shipping cover only offers protection from dirt and is not an insulating device; obtain an Elastimold insulating plug (K150DP) if an insulating device is required.

  7. Connect to a Mating Plug

    Lubricate the nose of the mating plug with silicone grease. Insert the nylon rod into the receptacle face until it bottoms (approximately 1 3/4 inches), taking care not to cut the rod. Insert the plug assembly into the receptacle as far as possible. Pull out the nylon rod. Secure the electrical connection with an Elastimold bail.

  8. Ground the Cable

    If an ELASTIMOLD grounding device is not being used, connect a length of #14 AWG or equivalent copper wire (customer supplied) through the grounding tab and twist tightly. Connect the grounding assembly of the connector to the system ground by merging it with the cable shield of each cable. Seal the grounding wires and connections to prevent corrosion.
