1. Drive post (PN-33903A) at post locations 4 through 9 with an appropriate driving
head/equipment.
2. Follow Steps 3 and 4 in the “Terminal Line Posts in Driven Sleeve-Posts 4 through 9”
section above.
Terminal Cables
The cables used in the CCT are pre-stretched, consisting of three (3) precut cables with factory
applied fittings (Option A) on each end; or cables can be field cut (Option B) taken from cable
reels. The precut cable lengths are 41’-9” [12.73 m] (CRP 3), 48’-0” [14.63 m] (CRP 2), and 54’-
3” [16.54 m] (CRP 1). The field cut lengths can be the same as for precut, or can be of greater
lengths, depending on specification and shop drawing provided for the cable run.
Complete the following steps for placing the CCT cables:
Installing the Cables to the CR posts:
Option A (Precut Cables)
A. Lay out the three (3) precut cables. The right threaded end of the cables will be
attached to the CRP. The CRP 1 cable (PN-5817G) starts at CRP 1 (post location 1)
and is placed on the front side (traffic side) of the line terminal posts; the CRP 2 cable
(PN-5818G) starts at CRP 2 (post location 2) and is placed on the back side (away
from traffic) of the line terminal posts; and the CRP 3 cable (PN-5819G) starts at CRP
3 (post location 3) and is placed on the front side (traffic side) of the line terminal posts.
B. Place the right threaded end of the fitting through the hole formed by the top and
bottom CRP.
C. Place the CRP Cable Bracket (PN-33909G) on the threaded end. The angle end of
the bracket is placed up (See Figure 2).
D. Place a flat washer (PN-4903G) and hex nut (PN-4902G) on the threaded fitting on
the cable. Thread the nut approximately halfway on to it. Place on the fitting a second
hex nut up against the first nut
E. Perform Steps B-D for the other two (2) cables.
Option B (Field Cut Cables)
A. Cut three (3) lengths of cable from the cable reel (41’-9”, 48’-0”, 54’-3”). Perform the
following steps for all three (3) cables.
B. Place a right-hand and left-hand field fitting (use the same size fittings used for line
cables) on the end of the cables. See the Field Splice section for assembling the
fittings.
C. If using 1” fittings, perform Steps A-D in Option A. If using 3/4” fittings, perform Steps
A-C in Option A and in Step D replace PN-4903G with PN-3701G and PN-4902G with
PN-4959G.
Installing the Cables on the terminal posts:
1. The CRP 1 cable attached to CRP 1 will use the top two holes on line terminal posts 4
through 9.
2. The CRP 2 cable attached to CRP 2 will use the middle two holes on line terminal post
9; holes 4 and 5 on line terminal post 8; and the bottom two holes for posts 4-7.
