How to Install the R2T15M4 Shrink Fit Silicone Rubber Termination
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of the R2T15M4 15kV Shrink Fit Silicone Rubber Termination on tape shielded cables, including cable preparation, grounding, and termination sealing.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Utility knife, Measuring tape/ruler, Cleaning cloths/pads, Gloves
Supplies needed:
R2T15M4 Shrink Fit Silicone Rubber Termination Kit, Lubricant (Silicone Grease), Gray Silicone Rubber Electrical Tape, Preformed Ground Braid, Sealing Mastic, Copper Foil Tape, Vinyl Tape, Terminal lug/connector, Approved solvent, Aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer)
- Safety and Initial Checks
DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before starting. This product must be installed by competent personnel trained in high voltage safety. Inspect all kit contents for completeness, damage, rating, and compatibility with mating parts. Read these instructions fully before proceeding.
- Prepare the Cable
Verify the cable size fits within the termination's insulation range. Train the cable into position and cut to the required length. Prepare the cable by removing the jacket to a length of 7.5 inches (190mm) plus 2 inches (50mm) for terminal lug depth and additional growth allowance (1/4 to 3/4 inch for aluminum lugs). Secure the tape shield edge with a single wrap of the supplied copper foil tape.
- Install the Ground Braid
Wrap one band of mastic around the cable jacket 1/4 inch (6mm) from the jacket end, using 50% stretch, and cut flush. Position the preformed ground braid with the short tail over the tape shield and the solder block centered over the mastic strip; secure with vinyl tape and press the solder block into the mastic. Apply a second mastic band over the solder block. Wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around the mastic seal. Wrap the ground braid around the cable tape shield one complete wrap, trim excess, and secure with the constant force spring, cinching it tightly and securing with two wraps of vinyl tape.
- Install the Terminal Lug or Connector
Check that the termination assembly fits over the selected lug. If not, clean the insulation and slide the termination onto the cable before installing the lug (do not remove the core yet). Position the connector or lug and crimp according to the manufacturer's directions, ensuring not to crimp the last 3/8 to 1/2 inch of the connector. Remove any excess oxide inhibitor and all sharp crimp flashings and edges.
- Clean Cable Insulation and Lug Barrel
Wipe the cable insulation with an approved solvent, ensuring the solvent does not touch the semi-conductive insulation shield. If abrasive cleaning is necessary, use only aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer) on the insulation only, and be careful not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below the kit's allowed range.
- Prepare the Termination for Installation
Create a track-resistant moisture seal between the termination insulator and the lug/connector using the gray silicone rubber electrical tape. Wrap a band around the base of the terminal lug, using up to two layers if the barrel diameter is equal to or greater than the cable primary insulation, or building up the tape to the insulation diameter if the barrel is smaller. Liberally coat the edge of the semi-conductive insulation shield with silicone grease to fill the step. Pull the loose end of the removable core through the top of the termination until it is flush with the bottom.
- Install the Termination Body
Slide the termination body onto the cable. Align the termination with the forward edge of the mastic seal. Carefully begin to remove the core by unwinding it counter-clockwise, starting with the loose end. Ensure that the termination body, not the core, is butted up to the leading edge of the mastic seal. Continue to remove the core completely, taking care not to push or pull on the termination assembly during this process.
- Complete Termination Sealing
Apply a thin film of silicone lubricant to the skirt and mastic seal area, but do not lubricate the skirt tabs. Carefully fold down the skirt over the mastic seal. Complete the lug area moisture seal using the remaining gray silicone rubber electrical tape, overlapping the termination insulator by approximately 1 inch and extending the tape wrapping over a non-crimped region of the lug/connector barrel with a half-lap configuration.
- Final Grounding and Verification
Connect the installed ground braid securely to the system ground. Confirm that the High-K step of the termination does not exceed 1.5 inches (38mm) to ensure proper electrical performance and safety.
