This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing Thomas & Betts Flood-Seal YY-Type Disconnect Kits (YDA, YFA(AL), YDC, YFC(CU)). Installation must be performed by trained installers in accordance with all applicable local, state, and national electrical codes, installation standards, and safety rules to prevent danger of electric shock.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Wire strippers, Screwdriver, Crimping tool, Wire brush (for aluminum cables only)
Supplies needed:
Y-Type Insert & Housing (Line Side), Connecting Link (for Disconnect Kits), Nut, Bolt, Belleville Washers (2), Lugs (2), Load End Insert with Connector, Load End Twin Cap, Silicone grease (HOMAC CST 3095 or equivalent), Midget Type Fuse (1 1/2 x 13/32, not included), HM53 inhibitor or equivalent (for aluminum cables only)
- Prepare Load End Housing
Select the correct cut-off ring on the Load End housing for the cable being used. Cut off the end of the housing at the tip of the arrow, leaving only the correct cable size showing.
- Prepare Load End Cable
Wipe the cable clean. For larger size cables, bevel the end of the cable insulation for ease of installation. Apply silicone grease to the end of the cable and to the cut opening of the Load End housing.
- Insert Load End Cable
Insert the cable into the Load End housing until it extends 2 to 3 inches beyond the housing.
- Connect Load End Wires
Strip 1/2 inch of insulation from the cable ends, baring the conductor. Insert the bare wires into the connector of the Load End insert. Tighten the screws securely to hold the wires.
- Assemble Load End Insert
Apply silicone grease to the insert. Pull on the wires and/or push the insert until it is properly seated in the twin cap housing.
- Insert Fuse or Connecting Link
Insert the fuse (not included) or connecting link into the assembled YY Load Side assembly.
- Prepare Line End Housing
Select the correct cut-off ring for the cable being used on the Line End housing.
- Prepare Line End Cable
Cut and bevel the Line End cable insulation. Apply silicone grease to the end of the cable and to the cut opening of the Line End housing. Slide the cable through until it extends 2 to 3 inches beyond the housing.
- Prepare Line End for Lugs
Bare the insulation to fit the compression lug. Crimp the lugs with a proper crimping tool, ensuring the tongue portions of the lugs are back to back.
- Prepare Aluminum Lugs (Optional)
For aluminum cables only, wire brush the pads of the lugs. Apply HM53 inhibitor or equivalent and wipe off any excess inhibitor.
- Assemble Line End Insert
Assemble the Line End insert with the lugs, nut, bolt, and Belleville washers as shown in the illustration. Tighten the bolted assembly.
- Seat Line End Insert in Housing
Lubricate the Y-Type housing with silicone grease. Slide the housing up to the bottom of the insert. Push the insert into the opening of the housing. Pull on the cables while holding the Y-Type housing, sliding the housing toward the insert until it is seated.
- Connect Load and Line Ends
Plug the Load End assembly, with the installed connecting link or fuse, into the Line End insert.
- Verify Final Assembly
After completing the assembly, be sure that no bare metal extends beyond the insulating cover. Do not overstrip insulation during wire preparation.
