How to Install the R2T35J2-T0240 35kV Cable Terminator

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and proper installation of the R2T35J2-T0240 35kV Ranger 2 Cable Terminator on concentric and jacketed concentric neutral cables for indoor/outdoor applications.

Estimated time: 2h

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Measuring tape or ruler, Utility knife or cutting tool, Solvent applicator (e.g., clean cloth), Abrasive pad (aluminum oxide, grit 120 or finer, if needed), Safety gloves

Supplies needed:

R2T35J2-T0240 Silicone Rubber Termination Halves (2), Silicone Lubricant, Grey Silicone Rubber Tape, Sealing Mastic, Terminal lug or connector (compatible with cable), Vinyl tape or binding wire, Approved solvent for cable cleaning, Cable Support Bracket (optional)

  1. Perform Pre-Installation Checks and Safety Measures

    Before starting, ensure all apparatus is de-energized. Verify the cable size fits within the kit's range using the Termination Selection Chart. Inspect all kit components for damage and compatibility. Read the entire instructions and have all required tools and supplies ready. Wear appropriate safety gloves.

  2. Prepare the Cable for Termination

    Train the cable into position and cut it to the required length, ensuring sufficient neutral wire length for grounding. Prepare the cable using the specified dimensions: 13-1/2 inches (340mm) for the jacket, 2 inches (50mm) for the semi-con, and 1/4 inch (6mm) for the conductor, allowing for terminal lug depth and additional conductor length for aluminum lugs. Wrap one band of sealing mastic around the cable jacket 1/4 inch (6mm) from the jacket end, stretching 50% and cutting flush. Bend the neutral wires back, press them into 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, stretching 50% and cutting flush. Finally, wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around the mastic seal, carefully maintaining the 1/4 inch (6mm) dimension.

  3. Install the Terminal Lug or Connector

    If using a lug that will not fit through the termination core, slide the termination onto the cable before installing the lug. Position the connector or lug and crimp it according to the manufacturer's 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.

  4. 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 only aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer) on the insulation only, avoiding the semi-con shield, and ensure the cable insulation diameter is not reduced below the kit's specifications.

  5. Prepare and Install the First Termination Half

    Create a track-resistant moisture seal by wrapping gray silicone rubber tape around the base of the terminal lug. If the barrel diameter is smaller than the cable primary insulation, build up the tape to match the insulation diameter. Apply a liberal coating of silicone grease to the edge of the semi-con insulation shield to fill the step. For the lower termination with a fold-down skirt, pull the loose end of the removable core through the top until it 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, ensuring the termination body butts against the mastic seal without pushing or pulling the assembly.

  6. Install the Second Termination Half

    Using the second housing, pull its core down to within one coil of the bottom. Slide this terminator over the cable, overlapping the first terminator by 1-1/2 inches (40mm), and carefully pull its core counter-clockwise. Apply a thin film of silicone lubricant to the skirt and mastic seal area (avoiding skirt tabs), then carefully fold down the skirt over the mastic seal.

  7. Complete Final Sealing and Grounding

    Complete the lug area moisture seal using the remaining gray silicone rubber tape, overlapping the termination insulator by approximately 1 inch and extending over a non-crimped region of the lug/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.
