INSTALLATION OF THE CAP

CONNECTOR EARTHING 

AND CABLE CLAMPING

NOTE :

A connector/bushing mated combination should not be allowed to carry the full weight of the cable.

Therefore it is necessary to clamp the cable as close as possible to the connector.

IMPORTANT NOTES :

-  Never disconnect the connector from energised equipment nor energise a disconnected connector 

  without previously installing on its appropriate corresponding mating part.

-  Do not allow hydrocarbon oils or solvents to contaminate the E.P.D.M. rubber.

  In the event of contamination, wipe the surface clean with a dry cloth.

Installation on insulating plug :

-  Clean the inside of the cap and the outside surface of 

  the connector and insulating plug. 

-  Place the nylon vent rod along the insulating plug 

  (see fig.) to exhaust the air during assembly of the cap.

-  Push the cap over the connector and on to the 

  insulating plug. 

-  Press the centre of the cap on to the locking point 

  until it snaps in place. Press the cap on all sides to 

  make sure it is well positioned over the connector. 

  Position the cap with the pulling tab pointing
