AINTENANCE
The splicing maintenance consists of connecting the wire pairs of the HRE-712 cable stub to the main cable
located in the splice case.
The following sections contain step-by-step procedures for:
•
Preparing the stubs for splicing into the main cable, see
•
Splicing the stubs into the main cable, see
“Splicing Procedure” on page 29
•
Dressing and taping the final splice in the splice case, see
“Post-Splicing Procedure” on page 31

Cable Stub Construction
When using these procedures to splice stub pairs into the main cable, maintain cable pair integrity by following
local practices as required.
Pre-Splicing Procedure
Perform the following steps to pre-splice the enclosure cable stub:
1
Strip a sufficient length of outer jacket, aluminum shield, and mylar sheath from the cable stub.
2
Strip the main cable, as required by the cable manufacturer.
3
Install shield bonding connectors in accordance with standard practices.
Ground the HRE-712 enclosure before splicing the cable stubs into the main cable. The
grounding method discussed in
“Grounding the HRE-712 List 1 and List 2” on page 13
or an
accepted local grounding method must be in effect at all times to safeguard personnel.
The HRE-712 comes with a screened cable stub that is precut and capped.
The cable butt is considered to be the end of the cable stub most distant from the enclosure.
