How to Install the In-Line Reducing Splice Connector
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing an In-Line Reducing Splice Connector, ensuring secure and reliable electrical connections.
Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Crimping tool, Heat tool (Panduit Model No. HSG-115V-650 recommended)
Supplies needed:
In-Line Reducing Splice Connector, Heat shrink tubing, Copper conductors
- Prepare the conductors
Strip the insulation from the larger conductor to the length specified in the tool chart. Ensure not to nick or damage the conductor strands.
- Insert conductors into the connector
Slide the heat shrink over the smaller conductor. Insert both conductors fully into the splice connector, ensuring that the strands are visible through the inspection holes.
- Crimp the connector
Using the appropriate crimping tool, match the color code and die index number on the connector to the crimp dies. Make the required number of crimps in the designated zones, starting from the inspection holes and moving towards the conductor entry.
- Apply heat shrink
Slide the smaller heat shrink over the splice connector and shrink it using the heat tool, moving from the center towards the ends. Repeat with the larger heat shrink, ensuring it overlaps the smaller one by approximately 1/4 inch.
- Inspect the connection
Check the heat shrink for any holes or voids and ensure that the die index numbers on the crimps are visible through the heat shrink.
