How to Install 655/656/675/676CETP Deadbreak Elbow Connectors
This guide provides detailed instructions for the safe and proper installation of 655/656/675/676CETP deadbreak elbow connectors, including cable preparation, lug crimping, and final assembly for high voltage apparatus.
Estimated time: 2h
Tools needed:
Crimping tool, Torque wrench, 600AT assembly tool (or 600ATM), Hotstick, Suitable sensing device (for voltage test), Wire brush, Wire strippers, Cable knife
Supplies needed:
Lubricant (supplied), Vinyl plastic tape, Grounding wire (at least No. 14 AWG Copper), Suitable connector (for grounding wire), Silicone grease
- Prepare for Installation
DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation or removal. Inspect all parts for damage, proper rating, and compatibility. Check package contents for completeness. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure.
- Position and Cut Cable
Position the cable in its final assembled position with enough slack for elbow removal. For concentric neutral cable, unwind the neutral wires. Cut the cable 1-3/4” (45mm) from the centerline of the mating product.
- Clean Cable and Prepare Outer Jacket/Shield
Clean the outer surface of the cable for 24” (610mm) or up to the bent back concentric neutral wires. Remove the outer jacket to the specified dimension. Fold back shield wires. Remove flat metallic tape shield and secure with vinyl plastic tape. For other shield types (fabric, corrugated, Unishield, lead sheath), refer to specific instructions. Remove semi-con shield, ensuring not to cut or nick the cable insulation.
- Prepare Cable Insulation and Install Adapter
Bevel the end of the cable insulation at a 45-degree angle, approximately 1/4” (6mm) back. Thoroughly clean and lubricate the cable insulation, working toward the semi-con shield. Install the cable adapter, small end first, until it is flush with the edge of the tape marker.
- Prepare Conductor and Crimp Lug
Remove protruding cable insulation even with the end of the cable adapter, ensuring the exposed conductor length is 4 3/8”–4 11/16” (111mm–119mm). Do not cut or nick the cable adapter or conductor. For copper, fully insert conductor into the lug. For aluminum, wire brush and immediately insert. Measure the 'Check Dimension' (less than 6 1/2” (165mm)). Crimp the lug per its instructions. Wipe excess inhibitor. Verify lug-to-adapter distance is 6 1/2”–7 1/4” (165mm–184mm).
- Install Elbow onto Cable Adapter
Lubricate the cable adapter and the inside of the elbow cable entrance. Install the elbow onto the cable adapter until it cannot advance further. Ensure the cable adapter remains flush with the tape marker; reposition if necessary. Remove the tape marker.
- Connect Elbow to Mating Product
DANGER: Do not connect or disconnect mating products while energized. Do not energize while disconnected. Remove protective caps from the elbow and mating part. Install the stud into the apparatus by hand until fully seated. Clean and lubricate both the elbow and the mating part. Push the elbow onto the mating part. Use the appropriate 600AT or 600ATM assembly tool to engage and torque the contact assembly (19-25 ft/lbs for older products, 50-60 ft/lbs for newer; do not exceed 60 ft/lbs).
- Ground the Cable Shield
Insert one end of a grounding wire (at least No. 14 AWG Copper) through the grounding eye and twist to form a small loop, avoiding damage to the eye. Connect this wire to ground using a suitable connector. Ensure the cable shield is grounded, either through a grounding device or an alternate method. Waterproof the cable jacket to prevent moisture ingress.
- Install Loadbreak Interface (If Applicable)
Clean and lubricate the entire loadbreak interface and the appropriate DR(G), ESA, GLR, or LR connector. Install the DR(G), ESA, GLR, or LR to the tap plug interface following the instructions supplied with those specific products.
- Verify Seating and Perform Voltage Test
Confirm complete assembly by ensuring no portion of the colored interface sleeve is visible from the side. WARNING: For voltage testing, remove the test point cap with a hotstick, peeling it off at an angle. Use a suitable sensing device designed for capacitive test points; do not use conventional voltage measuring equipment. Treat the elbow as energized until a 'no voltage' indication is confirmed by other means. After testing, clean and lubricate the inside surface of the cap with silicone grease and replace it.
