Appendix 3: Cable Expansion Lid
Appendix 3: Cable Expansion Lid
Note: The GP2 case has 9 cable glands for 3-6 mm diameter cables. Additional and/or
larger cables can be fitted using this expansion lid.
GP2-G5-LID
This GP2 lid has 5 general purpose cable
glands.
Each gland can accept either a cable with an
outer diameter of 3 to10mm diameter, or it can
take 2 cables of diameter 3 to 4.5mm - using a
gland insert with two holes.
Appendix 7: Make sure the GP2 is properly sealed
on page 24.
For larger cables separate
the inner and outer
sleeves and use only the
outer sleeve
When using the twin hole insert, ensure both holes
are used – if using only one cable, then a blanking
plug (or similar) must be put into the other hole.
Failure to do this will mean the enclosure is not
sealed, and may damage the insert.
