2. Label the wires and install high temperature sheathing.
3. Crimp all thermocouple wires with male contacts.
4. Insert the thermocouple wire contacts into the female plug of quick
connector ‘1T’ as per wiring schematic in the General Assembly drawing.
5. Get six spare wires crimped with female contacts in one end, insert into
the male plug of quick connect ‘1T’, and label the wires accordingly to the
female side.
6. Insert the coding pin to the male plug as per wiring schematic, if
applicable.
7. Snap ‘1T’ plugs together, run the open end of the wires to the electrical
plugs, cut the wires to the proper length and crimp them. Install high
temperature sheathing if needed.
8. Install all the thermocouple wires into electric plugs per wiring schematic
drawing in the General Assembly drawing.
9. Repeat above for each zone. Name connector number according to drop
number. Be sure to locate the connectors inside the wire armor. See
“5.10.4 Wiring Channel” on page 5-41 for further details.
5.11.3 Prepare to Wire the Bridge
CAUTION
All wires close to a heat source require high temperature sheathing.
CAUTION
1. Group thermocouple and heater wires for a single zone together and
install high temperature wire sheathing.
2. Label all heater and thermocouple zones.
3. Use heat resistant tape to group thermocouple heater zones together and
to avoid losing labels.
4. Repeat for all zones.
