This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe and correct installation of the Sweetheart "Flood-Seal" Mechanical Connector SHC 1533 SL, including cable preparation and torque specifications. Installation must be performed by trained installers in accordance with all applicable electrical codes and safety rules.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Wire brush, Torque wrench, 5/16 inch Allen wrench, 3/8 inch drive ratchet with Allen adapter
Supplies needed:
Silicone grease, Oxide inhibitor, Electrical cables (feed and service)
- Prepare the Insulating Rocket
Remove the insulating rocket from the outlet. Identify the cable size being used and select the correct cut-off ring. For the feed cable, cut the SHC 4596 SL as shown in the provided diagram. For the service cable, cut the CS 4197 as shown in the provided diagram.
- Prepare the Electrical Cable
Strip the insulation from the cable according to the table: for Outlet Size 500, strip 3 1/2 inches; for Outlet Size 350, strip 2 1/4 inches. Penciling the edge of the insulation is recommended to ease installation. Wire brush the bare conductor thoroughly to break up surface oxides. Add oxide inhibitor and brush it into the strands. Wipe the cable clean. Apply silicone grease (included in each rocket) and slide the cut rocket over the prepared cable.
- Insert the Conductor
Insert the prepared conductor into the outlet barrel, ensuring that a maximum of 1/8 inch of bare conductor is showing.
- Secure the Conductor
Tighten the setscrews down on the conductor to the specified torque. The use of a torque wrench is recommended. If a torque wrench is not available, use a 5/16 inch Allen wrench or a 3/8 inch drive ratchet with an Allen adapter. Refer to the torque table: #14 to #3 wire size requires 120 in-lbs (10 ft-lbs); #2 to 350 wire size requires 240 in-lbs (20 ft-lbs); 400 to 750 wire size requires 360 in-lbs (30 ft-lbs).
- Install the Rocket Sleeve
Slide the rocket sleeve over the outlet and onto the PVC shoulder until the rocket butts firmly against the connector bar.
