How to Install the 35kV Ranger 2 Shrink Fit Silicone Rubber Termination on 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, covering cable preparation, ground braid installation, lug connection, and termination application. Ensure all apparatus is de-energized before starting.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Crimping tool, Wire strippers or cable knife, Measuring tape or ruler, Solvent saturated pads, Aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer)
Supplies needed:
Silicone Rubber Termination Halves, Lubricant (Silicone grease), Gray Silicone Rubber Electrical Tape, Constant Force Spring, Preformed Ground Braid, Sealing Mastic, Copper Foil Tape, Gloves, Terminal Lug or Connector, Vinyl Tape, Approved solvent
- Prepare the Cable
DANGER: Ensure all apparatus is de-energized during installation. Check cable size against the termination selection chart. Train the cable into position and cut to the required length. Prepare the cable by removing the jacket (13-1/2"/340mm), allowing for 2" (50mm) depth of terminal lug plus growth allowance. Hold down the tape shield edge with a single wrap of the supplied copper foil tape. Provide additional exposed conductor distance for aluminum lugs (1/4" to 3/4" depending on Kcmil).
- Install the Ground Braid
Wrap one band of mastic (50% stretch) around the cable jacket 1/4" (6mm) from the jacket end, cutting flush. Position the preformed ground braid with the 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. Wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around the mastic seal. Wrap the ground braid around the cable tape shield once, trim excess, and secure with the constant force spring, wrapping in the same direction and cinching it tight. Secure the spring with two wraps of vinyl tape.
- Install the Lug or Connector
Check that the termination assembly fits over the selected lug. If the lug will not fit through the termination core, clean the insulation and slide the termination onto the cable before installing the lug (do not remove the core at this time). Position the connector/lug and crimp according to the manufacturer's directions, avoiding crimping the last 3/8" to 1/2" of the connector. Remove any excess oxide inhibitor and all sharp crimp flashings and edges after crimping.
- Clean Cable Insulation and Lug Barrel
Wipe the cable insulation with an approved solvent, ensuring the solvent does not touch the semi-con insulation shield. If abrasive is necessary, use it only on the insulation (do not use abrasive on the semi-con insulation shield) and use aluminum oxide abrasive, grit 120 or finer. Be careful not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below the kit's allowed range.
- Install the Termination Halves
Create a track-resistant moisture seal between the termination insulator and lug/connector using gray silicone rubber electrical tape around the base of the terminal lug (max 2 layers if barrel diameter is equal to or greater than cable primary insulation, or build up to insulation diameter if smaller). Cover the edge of the semi-con insulation shield with a liberal coating of silicone grease 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 flush with the bottom. Slide the termination body onto the cable, align with the mastic seal, and carefully remove the core by unwinding counter-clockwise. Ensure the termination body, not the core, is butted against the leading edge of the mastic seal. Do not push or pull the termination assembly during core removal.
- Complete Termination Installation and Grounding
Using the second housing, carefully pull the core down within 1 coil of the bottom. Slide the termination over the cable and carefully pull the core counter-clockwise, overlapping the first termination by 1-1/2" (40mm). Apply a thin film of silicone lubricant to the skirt and mastic seal area (do not lubricate skirt tabs). Carefully fold down the skirt over the mastic seal. Complete the lug area moisture seal with the remaining gray silicone rubber electrical tape, overlapping the termination insulator by approximately 1" and extending over a non-crimped region of the lug/connector barrel with a half-lap configuration. Connect the ground braid to the system ground. Confirm that the High-K step does not exceed 1.5".
