How to Install the K656DR/K676DR Deadbreak Insulated Cap with Test Point
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for safely installing the K656DR/K676DR Deadbreak Insulated Cap, designed for insulating, shielding, and watersealing 15kV and 28kV class deadbreak bushing interfaces.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Hotstick, High impedance testing device
Supplies needed:
K656DR/K676DR Insulated Cap, Lubricant, Stud (if applicable), No. 8 Copper Grounding Wire, Grounding wire connector
- Prepare for Installation and Ensure Safety
DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation or removal. Failure to follow these instructions will result in damage to the product and serious or fatal injury. Before beginning, ensure all apparatus is de-energized. Inspect all parts for damage, correct rating, and compatibility with mating components. Verify the package contents are complete and undamaged. This product must be installed only by competent personnel trained in high voltage electrical equipment safety practices. Have all required tools ready and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure.
- Prepare Grounding Wire and Stud
Connect the free end of a No. 8 copper grounding wire to the system ground using a utility-specified connector. Ensure the grounding wire length is sufficient to reach the grounding eye of the insulated cap when installed. If the bushing lacks a stud, hand assemble the supplied stud into the insulated cap. If the bushing already has a stud, discard the supplied stud.
- Clean and Lubricate Interfaces
For new installations where the bushing is confirmed de-energized, thoroughly wipe both the bushing interface and the insulated cap interface to remove all contaminants. Lubricate these surfaces with the supplied lubricant or an Elastimold approved lubricant. For circuits previously energized, clean and lubricate only the interface of the insulated cap.
- Install the Insulated Cap
During this step, the grounding wire will be wrapped loosely around the center of the insulated cap body; a second hotstick will be needed to manage its tension and position. Attach the first hotstick tool to the insulated cap's pulling ring. Push the receptacle onto the bushing interface as far as it will go. Using the second hotstick, engage the grounding wire and apply slight tension. With the first hotstick, while pushing against the bushing interface, twist clockwise until the threads between the bushing and insulated cap engage. Continue turning without pushing until resistance is felt. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
