Electrical Test
• Attach the mating test-tool-half to the connector to be tested.
• If both cable ends have connectors, attach a mating end
termination at the opposite end. If there is no connector on the
opposite cable end, prepare it according to steps 1 through 6 and
twist together wires 1 & 2. Also join wires 3 & 4.
• Use an ohmmeter to measure the resistance between the test
tool posts.
• The resistance between the 2 longest posts or the 2 shortest
posts should be ≈ 2.5x cable length (ft) (i.e. A 100 ft. (30 m)
cable should measure ≈ 250 Ω between the two longest posts
and ≈ 250 Ω between the two shortest posts.)
• The resistance between the 2 intermediate length posts should
be greater than 20 megohms.
• If the assembly fails any of the resistance tests;
1) Check the twisted wires at the opposite able end.
2) If necessary, cut off and discard the connector and install a
new one.
• Before mating the connector assemblies, slide the unlabeled
shrink tube (Part E) onto one of the cables. Connect the pin
and socket connectors together firmly. Center the unlabeled
shrink tube over the pin/socket connection. Heat shrink
the tube over the connection, beginning in the center and
shrinking towards the ends until the tube fully conforms to
the shape of the connection and adhesive flows from each
end of the tube.
•
• Avoid overheating Part E. The thin wall unlabeled shrink
tubing requires less heat than the SCT cable shrink tubing.
• Let the entire connector area cool before handling the cable.
Note: Do not leave connector open to environment. If the
connector becomes wet or contaminated, it will need to
be replaced.
CAUTION: Burn Hazard. Do not get hot adhesive on
your bare skin. The hot adhesive will burn your skin.
