How to Install K655/K675LR Deadbreak Elbow Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe installation, cable preparation, and connection of 655/675LR and K655/K675LR deadbreak elbow connectors on 15kV and 25kV class systems.

Estimated time: 1h 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Wire brush, Crimping tool, Torque wrench, Hotstick, Suitable sensing device

Supplies needed:

Lubricant, Threaded stud, No. 14 AWG Copper wire, HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s), Silicone lubricant, Waterproofing material, Terminal connectors, Tape marker

  1. Prepare for Installation and Ensure Safety

    DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before beginning installation. Inspect all package contents for completeness and damage, and verify component compatibility and fit with the cable and mating products. Remove any protective shipping covers and replace them with appropriate HV insulated caps or connectors if the circuit will be submerged or energized. Have all required tools ready and maintain a clean work area.

  2. Prepare the Cable

    Assemble the cable in its final position with enough slack for elbow removal. For concentric neutral cable, unwind the wires. Cut the cable 1-3/4 inches (45mm) from the centerline of the mating product. Clean the outer surface of the cable for a distance of 24 inches (610mm) or up to the bent back concentric neutral wires. Remove the outer jacket (if applicable) and prepare the cable insulation, semi-con shield, and tape marker according to the specified dimensions (9-3/4in, 10-3/4in, 12-3/4in).

  3. Install the Cable Adapter

    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, working towards the semi-con shield. Install the cable adapter, small end first, until it is flush with the edge of the tape marker.

  4. Prepare the Conductor

    Carefully remove any protruding cable insulation by cutting it even with the end of the cable adapter. Ensure not to cut or nick the cable adapter or the conductor. The exposed conductor length must be between 4-1/4 inches and 4-9/16 inches (108mm-116mm); otherwise, redo the assembly.

  5. Crimp the Compression Lug

    For copper conductors, fully insert the conductor into the compression lug. For aluminum conductors, wire brush the conductor immediately before fully inserting it. Measure the 'Check Dimension' before crimping; it must be less than 6-3/8 inches. Crimp the compression lug following the supplied instructions. After crimping, wipe off all excess inhibitor. The distance from the end of the compression lug to the cable adapter must be between 6-3/8 inches to 7-1/8 inches (162mm-181mm).

  6. Install the Elbow onto the Cable Adapter

    Lubricate the cable adapter and the inside of the elbow's cable entrance. Install the elbow onto the cable adapter, pushing until it cannot advance further. Verify that the cable adapter remains flush with the tape marker; reposition if necessary. Finally, remove the tape marker.

  7. Connect the Elbow to Mating Products

    DANGER: Do not connect or disconnect mating products while energized, and do not energize while disconnected. Remove protective caps from both the elbow and the mating part. If the mating part lacks a stud, hand tighten the threaded stud supplied with the elbow into it. Clean and lubricate both the elbow and the mating part thoroughly. Push the elbow onto the mating part, aligning the hole in the compression lug with the stud. For the opposite end, clean and lubricate the mating part, insert it into the elbow, engage the threads, hand tighten, and then torque according to the mating part's instructions. If using an insulating plug, clean and lubricate the inner surface of the voltage detection cap and push it onto the elbow until it snaps into place.

  8. Ground the Cable Shield and Waterproof the Jacket

    Insert one end of a wire, with ampacity at least equivalent to No. 14 AWG Copper, through the grounding eye and twist to form a small loop without damaging the eye. Connect this wire to ground using a suitable connector. The cable shield must be grounded either through a grounding device or an alternate method. It is also recommended to waterproof the cable jacket at this point to prevent moisture ingress.

  9. Verify Torque for L-Kits (If Applicable)

    CAUTION: If constructing 600-amp L-Kits, ensure that each component is tightened to the specified torque according to the instructions provided with the L-Kit.

  10. Perform Voltage Test

    WARNING: The voltage test point is a capacitance device and is not directly connected to the conductor. Do not use conventional voltage measuring equipment. Remove the test point cap with a hotstick, peeling it off at an angle. Use a suitable sensing device, designed for capacitive test points, to determine if the cable is energized. Be aware that contamination, moisture, or incorrect equipment can lead to a false 'no voltage' indication. Always treat the elbow as energized until the 'no voltage' indication is confirmed by other means to prevent serious or fatal injury. After testing, clean and lubricate the inside surface of the cap with silicone lubricant and replace it on the test point.
