Installing the flexible connectors
……...
Fig. 42: Connection sleeve (example)
To connect the bus bars (Fig. 42/3 and 7), two flexible
connectors (Fig. 42/4) at the top and bottom are
installed using bolted connections (Fig. 42/2).
A bolted connection (Fig. 42/6) is used to fit two
contact springs (Fig. 42/5), at the top and bottom, to
the contact tube of the connection sleeve (Fig. 42/1).
Preparing the bolts
………………………
1.
Push the washers onto the bolts.
2.
Insert the bolts through the drilled hole in the
flexible connector (Fig. 43/1).
In the process, make sure the hole for the contact
springs (Fig. 42/5) remains free.
Installing the Al elast contact discs

3.
Fasten the Al elast contact discs to the underside
of the flexible connectors (Fig. 43/2).

discs
4.
In the process, fit the Al elast contact discs
alternately
to the flexible connectors (Fig. 44).
The center of one side of the Al elast contact disc is a
peak, while the opposite side is a valley. To place
them alternately, simply apply the contacts such that
they alternate peaks and valleys. This distributes
contact and pressure more evenly.
