How to Install the 15kV Ranger 2 Shrink-Fit Silicone Rubber Termination
This guide outlines the installation process for the 15kV Ranger 2 Shrink-Fit Silicone Rubber Termination (R2IT15M series) for indoor applications. It covers cable preparation, ground braid installation, lug connection, cleaning, and termination body installation for various cable shield types. Note: This indoor kit does not restore a moisture-resistant seal.
Estimated time: 2h
Tools needed:
Crimping tool, Wire strippers, Measuring tape, Utility knife, Solvent applicator pads, Aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer, optional)
Supplies needed:
15kV Ranger 2 Shrink-Fit Silicone Rubber Termination kit, Copper foil tape (for tape shield cable), Vinyl tape, Terminal lug or connector, Cleaning solvent, Semi-conductive rubber tape (e.g., Scotch No. 13, if applicable)
- Prepare the Cable
Check your cable size against the Termination Selection Chart (Page 1 of IS-1135) to ensure compatibility. Train the cable into its final position and cut it to the required length for installation. Prepare the cable jacket, semi-con, and insulation according to the specific dimensions provided for your cable type (Tape Shield, Wire Shield, or UniShield®). Ensure you allow for the terminal lug depth and any growth allowance required for aluminum lugs. Safety Warning: Always ensure the cable is completely de-energized before commencing any work.
- Install the Ground Braid
Carefully wrap one band of vinyl tape 1/4” (6mm) from the cable jacket end; this will serve as a crucial marker. Position the preformed ground braid with its short tail over the cable shield (tape shield, shield wires, or UniShield® wires) and center the solder block over the vinyl tape marker. Secure the ground braid to the cable jacket using additional vinyl tape. Apply a second vinyl tape band directly over the original tape marker and ground braid solder block, meticulously maintaining the 1/4” (6mm) dimension. Wrap the ground braid around the cable shield for one complete wrap, trim any excess to prevent overlap, and secure it firmly in place with the constant force spring. Wrap the spring in the same direction as the ground braid and cinch it tightly after the final winding. Secure the constant force spring with two additional wraps of vinyl tape. Note: For cables with cloth or paper semi-conductive insulation shields, it is recommended to overwrap the shield with one half-lapped layer of highly stretched semi-conductive rubber tape (e.g., Scotch® No. 13).
- Install the Terminal Lug or Connector
Before proceeding, verify that the termination assembly will fit over your selected lug. If the lug will not fit through the termination core, clean the insulation and slide the termination body onto the cable *before* installing the lug (do not remove the core at this time). Position the connector or lug and crimp it precisely according to the manufacturer’s instructions. It is critical not to crimp the last 3/8” to 1/2” of the connector. After crimping, meticulously remove any excess oxide inhibitor and all sharp crimp flashings or edges to ensure a smooth surface.
- Clean Cable Insulation and Lug Barrel
Thoroughly wipe the cable insulation with solvent-saturated pads to remove any contaminants. Caution: Do not allow the solvent to touch the semi-conductive insulation shield. If abrasive cleaning is deemed necessary, use it exclusively on the insulation and never on the semi-conductive insulation shield. Employ only aluminum oxide abrasive, grit 120 or finer, and exercise extreme care not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below the minimum allowed by the kit specifications.
- Install the Termination Body
Apply a liberal coating of silicone grease (lubricant) to the edge of the semi-conductive insulation shield (or semi-conductive jacket for UniShield® cables); this silicone is used to fill the step at the semi-con cut-off. Slide the termination body onto the cable. Align the termination edge (or skirt, depending on cable type) with the forward edge of the vinyl tape marker. Carefully begin to remove the core by pulling it counter-clockwise. Recheck the termination position and continue to remove the core steadily. Warning: Do not push or pull on the termination assembly while removing the core, as this can cause damage. Finally, connect the ground braid securely to the system ground.
