Figure 28 Tightening the Connector
The following number refers to Figure 28 above:
1 = Tighten the connector by rotating the ribbed part of the connector
by hand. Do not use tools.
NOTE Verify that the connector is properly tightened to avoid water leakage and
damage to the sensor. If water leaks into the connector, the warranty for
WMT703 is voided.
Checklist for Connection Cables
Take the following issues into account when installing WMT703:
- Routing of the cables depends on the mounting option selected for
WMT703. When mounting to a mast, the cable can be routed either
outside or inside the mast, depending on the mast type and other
equipment (for instance, lightning rods) installed to the mast.
- Make sure that the cable is properly attached to the mast or cross arm
before starting the installation. Otherwise, it may slip and fall down
during the installation.
- It is important to attach the cable properly to avoid strain to the
connector. Too much strain may cause the cable to fall off, damage
the cable or connector, or make the cable or connector susceptible to
water leakage. The recommended minimum bending radius for the
cable is 70 mm.
WARNING Make sure that you connect only de-energized wires.
