How to Install the LINK-C Deadbreak Cam Link Operable Connector System

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe installation and initial setup of the LINK-C Deadbreak Cam Link Operable Connector System, including mounting, wiring, and grounding procedures for the alignment bracket configuration.

Estimated time: 2h

Tools needed:

Torque wrench with 1 inch hex socket, Hot stick, Wire strippers

Supplies needed:

ELASTIMOLD supplied lubricant, No. 14 AWG or No. 12 AWG solid copper wire, Appropriate grounding connector, HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s) (if replacing shipping covers)

  1. Perform Initial Safety Checks and Preparation

    DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized during installation or removal of parts. This product must be installed only by competent personnel trained in good safety practices involving high voltage electrical equipment. Inspect all parts for damage, proper rating, and compatibility with mating parts. If supplied with protective shipping covers, remove them and replace with appropriate HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s) before submerging or energizing the circuit. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure.

  2. Install the 600 Amp Elbow onto the Cable

    Install the 600 amp elbow onto the cable according to the installation instructions supplied with the elbow. Ensure it is positioned to align with the standoff plug.

  3. Prepare and Install the Bushing Extender

    Clean and thoroughly lubricate the apparatus bushing and both interfaces of the 600 amp bushing extender with ELASTIMOLD supplied lubricant. Install the bushing extender onto the apparatus bushing. Insert the 600ATM into the retainer contact, engage the internal hex broach, and thread into the apparatus bushing using a suitable tool applied to the 1 inch hex portion of the 600ATM. Torque to 50-60 ft-lbs.

  4. Prepare and Install the 600 Amp Elbow onto the Epoxy Standoff Plug

    Clean and thoroughly lubricate the epoxy standoff plug and both interfaces of the 600 amp elbow with ELASTIMOLD supplied 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 applied to the 1 inch hex portion of the 600AMT. Torque to 50-60 ft-lbs.

  5. Install the Alignment Bracket

    Remove the bushing extender clamp and elbow 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 and torque by alternating sides until the clamp tabs are flush with each other and tight on both sides. Position the elbow in the alignment bracket such that the elbow cuff is lined up evenly with the bushing extender cuff. Assemble the elbow clamp to the alignment bracket with the supplied hardware and torque by alternating sides until the clamp tabs are flush with each other and tight on both sides. Ensure the elbow clamp notch faces the cable entrance of the elbow.

  6. Insert and Secure the Link

    Clean and thoroughly lubricate both 600 ampere interfaces of the Link with ELASTIMOLD supplied lubricant. Align the Link so it is perpendicular to the switch faceplate when inserted into the bushing extender and elbow. Insert the Link into the bushing extender and elbow, ensuring both lever arms are on the inside of the alignment bracket legs. Engage the pivot pin into the slots in the alignment bracket legs. While pushing inward, move the lever arms downward using a hot stick eye, engaging the roller pin and moving the Link inward. Continue moving lever arms until perpendicular to the alignment bracket leg.

  7. Ground the System and Install Mating Products

    Ground the elbow by feeding a No. 14 AWG or No. 12 AWG solid copper wire through the grounding eye, twisting it tight, and connecting it to ground. Clean and lubricate the 200 amp interface on the Link. Ground, then install the desired mating product on the 200 amp interface according to its specific installation instructions. Ground the cable: if concentric neutral cable is used, twist the concentric neutral wires together and connect to ground using an appropriate connector; if 20MA or 21MA grounding devices are used, connect the ground lead from the device to ground using a suitable connector. For three-phase installations, tie all grounds from all three phases to a common ground point.
