Overview

The ABB STAR TECK EXTREME fitting (SKU: STE150GRL) is a range-taking aluminum jacketed cable fitting designed for Teck cable installations. This fitting eliminates the need for multiple hub sizes by covering the range of three conventional STAR TECK fittings in a single unit, reducing inventory complexity and costs. The 1-1/2 inch hub size accommodates cable jackets from 1.440 to 1.965 inches in diameter, providing flexibility for varied cable sizes without precision matching. A key innovation is the removable armour stop, which simplifies installation and maintenance by allowing easy adjustment and removal without disassembling the entire fitting. The Bond Star grounding locknut ensures secure electrical continuity, meeting grounding requirements for hazardous and non-hazardous locations. This fitting is compatible with Teck-style cables commonly used in industrial, commercial, and utility applications, including power distribution, control systems, and motor connections. The aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments, while the design maintains IP66/IP67 ingress protection when properly installed. The STAR TECK EXTREME fitting is part of ABB’s Installation Products line, a trusted brand in electrical infrastructure solutions.

How to Install the Star Teck Extreme STE150GRL Cable Fitting

This guide provides detailed instructions for preparing armored cable and properly installing the Star Teck Extreme STE150GRL cable fitting to ensure a secure, sealed, and grounded connection.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Wire strippers, Torque wrench, Screwdriver

Supplies needed:

Armored Cable, Star Teck Extreme STE150GRL Cable Fitting

  1. Prepare for Installation and Select Fitting

    WARNING: Disconnect all power before beginning installation to prevent electrical shock. CAUTION: This product must be installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with all national and local electrical codes. Select the appropriate Star Teck Extreme STE150GRL fitting that is compatible with your enclosure and the specific armored cable being used.

  2. Prepare the Armored Cable

    Determine the required working length of the conductors inside the enclosure. Carefully remove a section of the cable's outer jacket to expose the armor. Using a hacksaw, cut the exposed armor and trim the outer jacket to match the strip length specified in the fitting's table (refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2). CAUTION: Exercise extreme care to avoid nicking or cutting the conductor insulation.

  3. Feed Cable into the Gland Funnel

    Insert the prepared armored cable into the gland funnel entry of the fitting. Push the cable firmly until the cable armor makes full contact with the internal armor stop (Figure 3). Correct positioning is crucial for ensuring proper cable armor grounding.

  4. Optional: Remove Armor Stop (If Necessary)

    If the inner conductor bundle is too large to pass through the fitting with the armor stop in place, unscrew and remove the armor stop (Figure 6). After removing the armor stop, repeat Step 3 to feed the cable through the gland funnel entry.

  5. Tighten the Gland Nut for a Secure Seal

    Tighten the gland nut until a proper seal is achieved, or to the maximum torque value specified in the fitting's table (refer to Figure 4). Confirm that the bushing and collar ring create an even seal around the cable’s outer jacket and are flush with the glandnut face (Figure 5). Maintain the cable in a centered position to achieve an optimal and watertight seal.
