How to Install the R2T28J2 28kV Ranger 2 Cable Termination
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for preparing the cable, installing the lug, cleaning the insulation, and installing the silicone rubber termination for 28kV Ranger 2 cable terminations on concentric and jacketed concentric neutral cables.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Approved solvent, Aluminum oxide abrasive (optional, grit 120 or finer), Vinyl tape or binding wire
Supplies needed:
Silicone Rubber Termination, Lubricant, Grey Silicone Rubber Tape, Sealing Mastic, Gloves, Connector or Lug, Silicone grease
- Perform Safety Checks and Initial Preparation
DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before installation. This product must be installed by competent personnel trained in high voltage electrical equipment safety practices. Check the kit contents for completeness and damage. Verify all components fit the cable and mating products. Read the entire instructions and have all required tools ready, maintaining cleanliness throughout the procedure.
- Prepare the Cable for Termination
Confirm the cable size fits within the kit range. Train the cable into position and cut to the required length, allowing sufficient neutral wire length for grounding. Prepare the cable using the specified dimensions, accounting for terminal lug depth and conductor growth during crimping. Wrap one band of sealing mastic around the cable jacket 1/4 inch (6mm) from the jacket end, using 50% stretch, and cut flush without overlapping. Bend the neutral wires back over the mastic and secure them to the cable jacket 4-6 inches (100-150mm) from the cut edge using vinyl tape or binding wire. Apply a second mastic band over the neutral wires and the first mastic, using 50% stretch, and cut flush. Wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around the mastic seal, carefully maintaining the 1/4 inch (6mm) dimension.
- Install the Lug or Connector
If using a lug that does not fit through the termination core, clean the cable insulation and slide the termination onto the cable before installing the lug (do not remove the core at this time). Position the connector or lug and crimp it according to directions, ensuring not to crimp the last 1/4 to 3/8 inch of the connector. After crimping, remove any excess oxide inhibitor and sharp crimp flashings.
- Clean Cable Insulation and Lug Barrel
Wipe the cable insulation with an approved solvent, taking care not to allow the solvent to touch the semi-con insulation shield. If abrasive cleaning is necessary, use it only on the insulation, not the semi-con shield. Use only aluminum oxide abrasive, grit 120 or finer, and be careful not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below the kit's allowed range.
- Install the Termination Body
Create a track-resistant moisture seal by wrapping a band of gray silicone rubber tape around the base of the terminal lug. Adjust the number of tape layers based on whether the barrel diameter is equal to or smaller than the cable primary insulation. Liberally coat the edge of the semi-con insulation shield with silicone grease to fill the step at the semi-con cut-off. For terminations with a fold-down skirt, pull the loose end of the removable core through the top of the termination until the core is flush with the bottom. Slide the termination body onto the cable, aligning it with the forward edge of the mastic seal. Carefully remove the core by unwinding it counter-clockwise, starting with the loose end. Ensure the termination body, not the core, is butted up to the leading edge of the mastic seal, and avoid pushing or pulling the termination assembly during core removal.
- Finalize Sealing and Grounding
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 tape, overlapping the termination insulator by approximately 1 inch and extending the tape wrapping over a non-crimped region of the lug or connector barrel with a half-lap configuration. Twist the concentric neutral wires together and connect them to the system ground. Finally, confirm that the High-K step does not exceed 1.5 inches.
