How to Install the K656SR/M656SR Straight Receptacle
This guide provides detailed instructions for installing the K656SR and M656SR straight receptacles, which enable an in-line cable connection to standard ANSI-386 600 amp 15kV, 25kV, or 35kV bushings. Ensure all apparatus are de-energized during installation to prevent serious or fatal injury.
Estimated time: 2h
Tools needed:
5/8-11 tap (if applicable), Hex wrench (supplied), Torque wrench with 15/16 socket, Wire strippers, Crimping tool
Supplies needed:
Receptacle housing, Bushing adapter, Cable adapter, Aluminum holding collar, Hex head bolt, Hose clamp (35kV only), Crimp connector, Belleville washer, Flat washer, Nylon venting rod, Lubricant (supplied), Brass bolt, Bushing converter contact, Loctite, Tape marker, No. 14 AWG copper wire (or equivalent), Suitable connector (for neutral and grounding wires), Cable (to be connected)
- Prepare Apparatus Bushing
DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation. If a stud is present in the apparatus bushing, remove it and re-tap the hole using a 5/8-11 tap. Clean and lubricate the apparatus bushing and bushing converter interface. Apply 3-4 drops of Loctite to the threads of the brass bolt. Assemble the bushing converter onto the apparatus bushing with the bolt hole facing out, using the 5/8” brass bolt. Torque to 60 ft.-lbs.
- Cut Cable End Squarely
Train the cable end and straighten it into its final position. Cut the cable squarely to ensure maximum available length for crimp growth.
- Manage Concentric Neutral Wires (If Applicable)
If applicable, unwrap the concentric neutral wires a distance of 30 inches (76cm). DO NOT CUT them. Bend and fold them back out of the way.
- Clean Cable Outer Jacket
Wipe the outer jacket clean for a distance of 38 inches (96.5cm) or up to the concentric neutral wires.
- Slide Receptacle Housing onto Cable
Slide the receptacle housing onto the cable a distance of 30 inches (76cm).
- Prepare Cable Insulation and Install Cable Adapter
Remove the semi-con shield and install a tape marker to the dimensions shown in the documentation (10-1/4” (26.04cm) from cable end, 11-1/4” (28.58cm) for shield removal). Do not cut or nick the cable insulation. Bevel the end of the cable insulation at a 45-degree angle, approximately 1/4 inch (6mm) back. Thoroughly clean and then lubricate the cable insulation, always working toward the semi-con shield. Install the cable adapter, small end first, until it is flush with the edge of the tape marker.
- Expose Conductor to Correct Length
Remove the protruding cable insulation by cutting it even with the end of the cable adapter. Do not cut or nick the cable adapter or the conductor. Verify the length of the exposed conductor is 4 3/4” – 5” (12.06cm–12.7cm). If the length is incorrect, redo the assembly from previous steps.
- Secure Holding Collar
Position the holding collar over the conductor and flush against the cable adapter. Using the supplied hex wrench, tighten the setscrew.
- Prepare and Insert Conductor into Crimp Connector
Remove the protective cap from the crimp connector. If using aluminum cable wire, brush the conductor and immediately insert it into the crimp connector, which contains inhibitor. Ensure the conductor is fully inserted into the crimp barrel. Measure the distance from the end of the connector to the holding collar. If this distance is over 7” (17.8cm), do not proceed and redo all previous work.
- Confirm Component Alignment
Confirm that the receptacle housing, cable adapter, crimp connector, and contact adapter are oriented in the correct order as shown in the documentation. Crucially, confirm that the bolt hole in the crimp connector is aligned with the bolt hole in the contact adapter.
- Crimp Connectors
Crimp the connectors following the instructions packaged with the connectors. Rotate each crimp 90 degrees. After crimping, measure the distance from the end of the connector to the holding collar. If this distance is over 7” (17.8cm), do not proceed and redo all previous work.
- Assemble and Torque Bolt
Assemble the washers and bolt in the following order: Flat washer against the spade contact, Belleville washer (concave side down), then the hex-head bolt. Hand tighten the assembly. Using a torque wrench with a 15/16 socket, tighten to 50-60 ft.-lbs. Do not attempt to move or reposition any part of the assembly after the bolts are tightened.
- Lubricate Adapters
Generously apply the supplied lubricant or ELASTIMOLD approved lubricant to the outside of the cable adapter and the area of the bushing adapter as shown in the documentation. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE other lubricants, as they may be harmful to this product or its mating product.
- Seat Receptacle Housing and Connect Ground
Slide the receptacle housing over the cable adapter and up to the edge of the interface. Insert the supplied nylon venting rod. Slide the receptacle housing onto the bushing converter until it is fully seated. Remove the venting rod. Connect a short piece of No. 14 AWG copper wire (or equivalent) to the grounding eye of the receptacle housing, making a small loop and twisting tightly. Gather the concentric neutral wires and, using a suitable connector, connect them with the grounding wire.
- Install Hose Clamp (35kV Only)
For 35kV installations only, position the hose clamp between the locator bumps on the receptacle housing. Tighten the clamp until an audible click is heard.
