Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Measuring tape

Supplies needed:

Cable fitting, Cable

  1. Select the appropriate fitting

    Choose the correct ST300-480S cable fitting that accommodates both the enclosure and the cable being used. Refer to the provided table for specifications.

  2. Prepare the cable

    Determine the required working length for the conductor inside the enclosure. Remove a portion of the outer jacket to expose the armor. Cut the armor using a hacksaw and trim the outer jacket to achieve the correct exposed armor strip length as indicated in the table and figures.

  3. Insert the cable into the fitting

    Feed the prepared cable through the gland nut opening of the ST300-480S. Push the cable until the armor makes contact with the end stop within the fitting.

  4. Tighten the gland nut

    Tighten the gland nut until an appropriate seal is achieved or until the maximum torque specified in the table is reached. Ensure the bushing seals evenly around the cable's outer jacket and that the cable remains centered for optimal sealing.
