How to Install the 35kV Ranger 2 Shrink fit Silicone Rubber Termination (R2T35M) for Tape Shielded Cables
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the 35kV Ranger 2 Shrink fit Silicone Rubber Termination (R2T35M) on tape shielded cables, including cable preparation, ground braid installation, lug/connector attachment, and termination application. Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before installation and that only competent personnel trained in high voltage safety practices perform this procedure.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Crimping tool, Wire strippers, Knife or scissors
Supplies needed:
Silicone Rubber Termination Halves, Lubricant, Gray Silicone Rubber Electrical Tape, Constant Force Spring, Preformed Ground Braid, Sealing Mastic, Copper Foil Tape, Gloves, Vinyl Tape, Connector or Lug, Oxide Inhibitor, Approved Solvent, Aluminum Oxide Abrasive (grit 120 or finer, optional)
- Prepare the Cable
De-energize all apparatus before starting. Verify the cable size fits the termination's insulation range. Train the cable into its final position and cut it to the required length, accounting for terminal lug depth and aluminum lug growth allowance. Prepare the cable according to the specified dimensions for jacket removal, tape shield, and insulation. Secure the edge of the tape shield with a single wrap of the supplied copper foil tape to prevent unrolling.
- Install the Ground Braid
Apply the first band of sealing mastic around the cable jacket, 1/4 inch (6mm) from the jacket end, using 50% stretch. Cut the mastic flush without overlapping. Position the preformed ground braid with its short tail over the tape shield and the solder block centered over the mastic. Secure the ground braid to the cable jacket with vinyl tape and press the solder block into the mastic. Apply a second mastic band over the solder block and previous mastic, maintaining the 1/4 inch (6mm) dimension, and cut flush. Wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around the mastic seal. Wrap the ground braid once around the cable tape shield, trim any excess, and secure it with the constant force spring, wrapping the spring in the same direction as the braid. Cinch the spring and secure it with two wraps of vinyl tape.
- Install the Terminal Lug or Connector
Before proceeding, ensure the termination assembly can slide over the chosen lug or connector. If it cannot, clean the cable insulation and slide the termination onto the cable *before* installing the lug, ensuring the core remains in place. Position the connector or lug and crimp it according to the manufacturer's instructions, leaving the last 3/8 to 1/2 inch (10-13mm) of the connector uncrimped. Remove any excess oxide inhibitor and all sharp crimp flashings or edges after crimping.
- Clean Cable Insulation and Lug Barrel
Wipe the cable insulation thoroughly with an approved solvent, taking care not to let the solvent contact the semi-conductive insulation shield. If abrasive cleaning is necessary, use only aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer) on the insulation, avoiding the semi-conductive shield. Ensure the cable insulation diameter is not reduced below the kit's specified allowance.
- Install the Termination Body
Create a track-resistant moisture seal by wrapping gray silicone rubber electrical tape around the base of the terminal lug. The number of tape layers depends on the lug barrel diameter relative to the cable's primary insulation. Apply a liberal coating of silicone grease to the edge of the semi-conductive insulation shield to fill the step. For the lower termination, 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. Do not push or pull the assembly during core removal. If using a second housing, pull its core down to within one coil of the bottom, slide it over the cable, and remove its core counter-clockwise, overlapping the first termination by 1-1/2 inches (40mm). Apply a thin film of silicone lubricant to the skirt and mastic seal area (avoiding skirt tabs), then carefully fold the skirt down 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 (25mm) and extending over a non-crimped region of the lug/connector barrel with a half-lap configuration. Finally, connect the ground braid to the system ground and confirm that the High-K step does not exceed 1.5 inches (38mm).
