Section 1: Installation Instructions for Multi-pin Male Plugs
To avoid electrical shock or electrocution, if any parts of the
plug or receptacle appear to be missing, broken or show
signs of damage, DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.
Replace with the proper replacement part(s) before
continuing service.
WARNING
SHOCK HAZARD
To avoid electrical shock or electrocution, electrical power
supply must be OFF before and during installation and
maintenance. Installation and maintenance procedure must
be performed by a trained and competent electrician.
To avoid electrical shock or electrocution, connectors with
male pins must not be used as the power source, as the
user may come in contact with energized contacts or other
components.
Set screws are an integral part of explosion protection and
must be fully tightened while products are in use.
Do not separate plug and receptacle while energized.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Covers must be installed while not in use and must be fully
engaged to each other while plug and receptacle are mated
to protect integrity of device.

6. Continue to populate remaining pin locations on
insert with pins. WARNING: ALL INSERT LOCATIONS
MUST BE FULLY POPULATED WITH PINS.
C. To reassemble male plug:
1.
Thread coupling nut (4) onto environmental cover (3).
2.
Thread cable adapter (1) (left hand thread) onto the male
skirt (2) and tighten to torque value found in Table 9.
Verify male skirt (2) is wrenched fully to the shoulder of
the cable adapter (1) to ensure environmental integrity.
3A. Torque cable gland (5) to cable adapter (1) per
torque value found in Table 9. Verify sealing washer
(10) in place between cable gland and cable adapter.
3B. Finish installing cable gland to cable per cable gland
manufacturer’s instructions.
4A. If using mechanical clamp (9) or basketweave (7), fill
connector with potting compound per Section 9.
4B. Screw basketweave (7) or mechanical clamp (9)
onto the end of the cable adapter (1). Screw it
down tight enough to squeeze the bushing (8)
firmly against the cable. Fully tighten with wrench.
4C. For mechanical clamp, tighten cord grip screws to
torque found on Table 9.
Section 2: Installation Instructions for Multi-pin Female In-line and Square Flange Receptacle
A. To disassemble female in-line receptacle:

and press desired pin into insert. Follow pin insertion
instructions from Section 7.
5. Continue to populate remaining pin locations on
insert with pins. WARNING: ALL INSERT LOCATIONS
MUST BE FULLY POPULATED WITH PINS.
C. To reassemble female in-line receptacle:
1.
Thread cable adapter (1) (left hand thread) onto
female skirt (2) and tighten to torque value found in
Table 9. Verify female skirt (2) is wrenched fully to the
shoulder of cable adapter (1) to ensure environmental
integrity.
2A. Torque cable gland (5) to cable adapter (1) per torque
value found in Table 9. Verify sealing washer (10) in
place between cable gland and cable adapter.
2B. Finish installing cable gland to cable per cable gland
manufacturer’s instructions.
3A. If using mechanical clamp (9) or basketweave (7), fill
connector with potting compound per Section 9.
3B. Screw basketweave (7) or mechanical clamp (9) onto
the end of the cable adapter (1). Screw it down tight
enough to squeeze the bushing (8) firmly against the
