Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Wire strippers, Wire brush, Cutting tool, Torque wrench, Screwdriver
Supplies needed:
Sweetheart Flood-Seal Mechanical Connector SHC 1534 SL, Electrical cable/conductor, Oxide inhibiting compound, Silicone grease
- Prepare the Connector Outlet
Remove the insulating sleeve from the connector outlet. Select the correct cut-off ring on the rocket sleeve that corresponds to the specific cable size you will be using.
- Trim the Rocket Sleeve
Cut off the rocket sleeve at the tip of the arrow that aligns with your selected cable size, ensuring that the correct cable size is clearly visible on the opened rocket.
- Prepare the Conductor
Thoroughly wire brush the bare conductor with an appropriate compound to break up any oxides. This ensures optimal electrical contact.
- Strip the Cable Insulation
Strip the insulation from the cable according to the specified strip length for your cable and outlet size. For S/L 14-4, the strip length is 0.750 inches. For Outlet Size 500, it is 3 1/2 inches, and for Outlet Size 4/0, it is 2 1/4 inches. Penciling the insulation is preferred but not strictly necessary.
- Apply Silicone Grease
Apply silicone grease to the prepared, bare cable conductor.
- Install the Cut Rocket Sleeve
Slide the trimmed rocket sleeve over the prepared cable, ensuring it is oriented correctly.
- Insert and Secure Conductor
Insert the prepared conductor into the outlet barrel of the connector. Tighten the set screws down on the conductor, starting with the outermost screw, to the specified torque. For #14 to #3 wire size, apply 120 in.-lbs. of torque. For #2 to 350 wire size, apply 240 in.-lbs. of torque. For 400 to 750 wire size, apply 360 in.-lbs. of torque.
- Finalize Rocket Sleeve Position
Slide the rocket sleeve over the outlet and onto the outlet shoulder until the rocket butts firmly against the connector bar, creating a secure seal.
