* Splices (including size transitions) can be made to smaller or larger conductors (but larger

conductors may require special neutral handling), provided both cables are within the Insulation
O.D. Range and the connector meets the dimensional requirements shown below.

CAUTION

Working around energized high-voltage systems may cause serious
injury or death. Installation should be performed by personnel familiar
with good safety practice in handling high-voltage electrical equipment.
De-energize and ground all electrical systems before installing product.
