6. If a higher reading is measured on one of the tests
all connections are not completed and there is not
continuity for one or both of the bus wires.
7. If resistance values of braid to A and braid to B are
not within 20% of each other inspect all connec-
tion kits (splice, tee, and cross) between the power
connection and the cable end that is being tested.
8. If resistance values of braid to A and braid to B are
within 20% of each other the cable continuity is
intact. Continue with system installation.
9. Repeat test procedures for all branch lines to
verify entire heat tracing circuit.
10. After entire circuit passes continuity test, remove
wire nut on power connection kit and connect to
heat trace controller.
Note: Readings can be taken at a previously
installed RayClic power, splice, tee or cross con-
nection by using the test ports available inside the
component (see figure 26). Testing at a RayClic will
only confirm continuity to the previous components;
it will not verify continuity to the cable end seal.
