How to Install a Star Teck ST250-478S Cable Fitting
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the proper installation and sealing of a Star Teck ST250-478S cable fitting, ensuring a secure and compliant connection for armored cables.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Hacksaw, Wrench
Supplies needed:
Star Teck ST250-478S Cable Fitting, Armored Cable
- Select the Appropriate Fitting
Select the appropriate Star Teck cable fitting (e.g., ST250-478S) that is compatible with both the enclosure and the specific armored cable being used. Refer to the product table in the instruction sheet for compatibility and specifications.
- Prepare the Cable
WARNING: Disconnect all power before beginning installation to prevent risk of shock. Determine the working length of the conductor required 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 exposed armor, then trim the outer jacket to adjust the exposed armor strip length as indicated in the product table. CAUTION: Do not nick or cut the conductor insulation during this process.
- Insert Cable into Fitting
Feed the prepared armored cable through the gland nut opening of the fitting. Push the cable firmly until the cable armor makes contact with the internal end stop of the fitting.
- Tighten the Gland Nut
Tighten the gland nut until an appropriate seal is achieved around the cable's outer jacket. Alternatively, tighten to the maximum torque specified in the product table for your specific fitting. Ensure the bushing seals evenly around the cable's outer jacket and that the cable remains centered within the fitting to obtain an optimal and secure seal.
