Overview

The ABB STE100 Star Teck Extreme fitting, SKU STE100, represents a significant advancement in cable management for industrial applications. As the industry's first range-taking Teck fitting, it fundamentally simplifies the process of matching cables to fittings. This innovative design drastically reduces the need for extensive inventory, as a single Star Teck Extreme fitting can accommodate the range previously requiring three different conventional Star Teck fitting hub sizes. This translates to improved efficiency and cost savings for electrical contractors and maintenance teams. Key to its design is the range-over-jacket capability, specified from 0.950 to 1.375 inches for the 1-inch hub size. This broad range ensures a secure and reliable connection across a variety of cable diameters, minimizing the risk of improper fit and potential system failures. Furthermore, the Star Teck Extreme fitting introduced the now-standard removable armour stops. This feature enhances installation flexibility and safety, allowing for precise adjustment and termination of the cable armour.

How to Install Star Teck Extreme STE Cable Fittings

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the proper installation of Star Teck Extreme STE series cable fittings, including cable preparation and sealing. Ensure power is disconnected before starting.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Wire strippers, Torque wrench, Screwdriver

Supplies needed:

Star Teck Extreme STE cable fitting (e.g., STE100), Armored cable

  1. Disconnect Power and Select Fitting

    WARNING: Disconnect all power to the circuit before beginning installation to prevent risk of shock. Select the appropriate Star Teck Extreme STE cable fitting that matches the enclosure and the armored cable being used. CAUTION: This product must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes.

  2. Prepare the Armored Cable

    Determine the required working length of conductors inside the enclosure or device. Carefully remove a portion of the cable's outer jacket to expose the armor. Using a hacksaw, cut the exposed armor to the strip length specified in the provided table (refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 in the original document for specific measurements for your STE model, e.g., STE100). Trim the outer jacket to adjust the exposed armor strip length as needed. CAUTION: Do not nick or cut the conductor insulation during this process.

  3. Feed Cable into the Fitting

    Feed the prepared armored cable through the gland funnel entry of the STE fitting. Push the cable until its armor firmly hits the internal armor stop (refer to Figure 3). NOTE: If the inner conductor bundle is too large to pass through, unscrew and discard the armor stop (refer to Figure 6), then repeat this step. Ensure the cable armor is correctly positioned to guarantee proper cable armor grounding.

  4. Tighten the Gland Nut for a Secure Seal

    Tighten the gland nut of the fitting until an appropriate seal is achieved or to the maximum torque specified in the table for your specific STE model (refer to Figure 4). Verify that the bushing and collar ring seal evenly around the cable's outer jacket and are flush with the glandnut face (refer to Figure 5). Ensure the cable remains centered within the fitting to achieve an optimal and watertight seal.
