Installation Instructions.
The 252LRJS is designed to terminate UD jacketed and non--jacketed cable having concentric neutral wires or copper tape
shielding. The elbow provides a voltage test point and an operating interface for connecting to an 12/20 (24)kV 250ampere
deadbreak bushing or accessory device. Designed with a fold down extension on the cable entrance for sealing to the jacket of
jacketed cable. When other types of UD cable are to be terminated, an appropriate Elastimold cable shield or grounding device
must be used.
