To connect MI cable to a junction box, motor, or other
equipment approved for use in hazardous areas, screw
the gland connector into the threaded hub and tighten to
the recommended torque. If making a field termination,
ensure that the termination kit is the correct type for the
area classification (see Figure 22 on page 30 and Figure 23
on page 31). Use up excess cable by forming the cable
into a loop as shown in Figure 19. All installations must
be in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
NEC / CEC and any other applicable national or local codes
and standards.
