How to Install the 600/900 Series Deadbreak Connecting Plug
This guide provides detailed instructions for the safe and proper installation of the 600/900 series deadbreak connecting plug, an accessory designed for power distribution systems. It covers stud installation, cleaning, lubrication, connection, and grounding.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
3/8 inch hex bit socket, Torque wrench, Wire strippers
Supplies needed:
600/900 Series Deadbreak Connecting Plug, Lubricant (supplied with plug, DO NOT SUBSTITUTE), No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent, HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s), Mating plug device (e.g., elbow, bushing extender, vault stretcher, or elbow end module)
- Ensure Safety and Inspect Components
Before beginning, ensure all apparatus are de-energized during installation or removal of parts. Do not touch or move energized products. This product must be installed only by competent personnel trained in good safety practices involving high voltage electrical equipment. Inspect the connecting plug and all mating parts for damage, correct rating, and compatibility. If the product came with protective shipping covers, remove them and replace with appropriate HV insulated caps or connectors before submerging or energizing the circuit.
- Install Stud into Mating Plug Device
If the mating plug device (such as an elbow, bushing extender, vault stretcher, or elbow end module) is not equipped with a stud, hand tighten the stud into the mating plug device. The stud must be threaded in until the start of the flats are below the contact surface.
- Clean and Lubricate Connecting Plug and Mating Part
Clean both the connecting plug and its mating part as indicated in the documentation. Lubricate both parts and the stud with the lubricant supplied. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE this lubricant, as other types may be harmful to the products. Be sure to keep all surfaces of the connecting plug and mating parts clean during this process.
- Connect and Torque the Connecting Plug
Push the connecting plug firmly into the elbow, bushing extender, vault stretcher, or elbow end module and engage the threads. Hold the contact of the connecting plug against the contact surface of the mating part. Using a 600ATM or a 3/8 inch hex bit socket with a torque wrench, tighten the connection exerting 50 to 60 foot-pounds (68 to 81 newton-meters) of torque.
- Ground the Connecting Plug (If Applicable)
If applicable, insert one end of a No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent through the grounding eye on the connecting plug. Twist the wire tightly, taking care not to damage the eye. Connect the other end of the wire securely to ground.
