3. While rotating the turnbuckle, prevent the two threaded ends from rotating. Rotate the
turnbuckle until both threaded ends are into the turnbuckle beyond the 1-1/2” [38 mm]
mark. See Figure 6 for the complete assembly.
Field Applied Fittings with Turnbuckle
There are two situations where a field applied fitting will be used: either when a fitting is required
to complete an assembly; or when no factory applied fittings are used and field applied fittings are
needed to make all of the cable connections. See Figure 6a for a 1” Cable Splice (PN-5633G)
and Figure 6b for 3/4” Cable Splice (PN-5698G).
Perform the following steps to complete a splice using a field applied fitting and a turnbuckle:
1. Ensure that the cable has a clean square cut by using a saw with an abrasive blade or an
electric band saw.
2. Insert the cut end of the cable into the field housing (PN-4190G) through the triangular
end.
3. With the cable inside the housing, separate the cable with two flathead screwdrivers for
insertion of the tapered triangular wedge (PN-4199B) between the three strands of cable.
4. Insert the wedge into the cable with the smaller diameter end towards the triangular hole.
Ensure that the wedge is pushed 1/2” [13 mm] beyond the end of the cable (plus or minus
1/8” [3 mm].
