Method C: Electrical Termination
8.6.1

mechanically grip and electrically terminate the overall shield to:
•
The wire bundles or multi-core cables.
•
Connector backshell and ‘CRA’ accessory, providing an interface to a conduit
system.

The following outlines the procedure for the Fixed Connector With SCHSA & CRA
Accessory.
8.6.3
Strip cable outer insulation exposing the screen for a length of 170mm.
8.6.4
Cut back the screen leaving a length of 100/125mm.
8.6.5
Crimp the contacts on, load the connector and assemble the grommet as per the

Braid Sock Assembly
8.6.6. Cut the braid sock to the required length and remove inner storage tube. Slide the
braid sock over knurled section of the inner component of CRA accessory and
terminate using a securing band shown in Appendix C. Ideally apply the band close to
the end of the knurled section checking for a neat termination with no twisting of the
band. Do not fold back braid screen when terminating braid to the CRA shell. When
terminating, trim edges to produce a clean cut so as not to damage the ‘O’ring seal.
8.6.7. Slide the chosen conduit assembly down the cable and away from the work area.
