How to Install Star Teck Cable Fittings (ST050-466SS Series)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing Star Teck cable fittings, including cable preparation and proper sealing. Ensure all safety precautions are followed and installation is performed by a qualified electrician.

Estimated time: 20m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Torque wrench, Wire strippers

Supplies needed:

Star Teck Cable Fitting (e.g., ST050-466SS), Armored Cable, Enclosure or Device

  1. Select the Correct Fitting

    Select the appropriate Star Teck cable fitting that matches both the enclosure and the specific cable being used. Refer to the product table in the documentation for compatibility based on cable range over armor and jacket.

  2. Prepare the Cable Armor

    WARNING: Disconnect power before installation to avoid risk of shock. Determine the required working length of the conductor inside the enclosure or device. Carefully remove a portion of the cable's outer jacket to expose the armor. Use a hacksaw to cut the armor, then trim the outer jacket to achieve the exposed armor strip length specified in the product table. CAUTION: Do not nick or cut the conductor insulation during this process.

  3. Insert Cable into Fitting

    Feed the prepared cable through the gland nut opening of the fitting. Push the cable until its armor firmly contacts the internal end stop of the fitting.

  4. Tighten the Gland Nut

    Tighten the gland nut until an appropriate seal is achieved, or to the maximum torque specified in the product table. Ensure the bushing seals evenly around the cable's outer jacket and that the cable remains centered within the fitting to obtain an optimal, secure seal.
