It is highly recommended that a tool suitable for the removal of the semi-conductive screen is used to provide a reliable discharge free termination screen point Use a propane gas torch with a soft flame Avoid a pencil like blue flame which is caused by unregulated supply Keep the flame on the move to ensure even shrinkage of all the materials and also helps to reduce scorching Ensure that all components are kept clean and grease free during installation Allow to cool before applying any mechanical strain X Remove Outer Cable Sheath: VOLTAGE 7. 2kV 12kV 17. 5kV 24kV 36kV INDOOR L 150mm 190mm 250mm 310mm 510mm OUTDOOR L 200mm 270mm 300mm 360mm 600mm LENGTH OF LUG BARREL + 10% X L Table 1 Single Core Armoured Cables If the Cable is Armoured, bonding of the Armours must be completed using the appropriate Armour Earthing kit. A) For Indoor Terminations (Cable End Box) - Order Bolt On Aluminium Earth Gland Ref: SPS 560* B) For Outdoor Terminations (Pole Top) - Please advise Conductor and Voltage rating. 60 mm Fig1 * SPS 560 size range = 50-630mm2 7. 2-36kV IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PURCHASER:- Sellers and Manufacturere's only obligation shall be to replace such quantity of the product proved to be defective. [. . . ] Ensure the Moisture Block in the Braid is bedded into the Red Mastic and apply one more turn of Tape over this point. Note:- A full range of Solderless Earth Bonding kits are available for all Voltages and Conductor sizes. Fig 2 CONSTANT FORCE 40mm 30mm MOISTURE BLOCK Fig 3 PRIMARY INSULATION CONDUCTIVE LAYER 20mm 40mm RED MASTIC CONSTANT FORCE SPRING 3. Conductive Layer Treatment Extruded Conductive Layer Fig 4 Remove the Conductive layer using a suitable Tool to the dimensions shown in Fig 3 and 4. Do not roughen the Insulation with Emery Cloth. PRIMARY INSULATION 10mm 10mm STRESS RELIEF TAPE Fig 5 Soluble Conductive Layer Cover the Conductive screen with Non adhesive Tape for 40mm on Wire Screened Cables and 20mm on Copper Tape Screened Cables (see Fig 4). Remove the layer after this point with a suitable solvent until totally clean. Remember to remove the Tape when finished. STRESS RELIEF TAPE 10mm 10mm 4. Apply Stress Relief Tape Fig 6 Remove the release paper, stretch the TS31785Y Yellow Stress Tape to double its length and apply around the end of each Core Screen to cover Copper Tape(if present) and Insulation by 10mm (see fig 5, 6). STRESS CONTROL TUBES 5. Stress Control Tubes Position the Stress Control Tubes so that they cover the Earth connection point and the Conductive Screen end. However do not extend past this point onto the Outer Cable Sheath. Fig 7 Shrink the Tubes one at a time starting from the bottom. Ensure the tubes are wrinkle free and have an even wall thickness. 6. Installing Cable Lugs The Cable should be cut to dimension L+X as given in Table 1. Remove the Insulation at X and install the Lug using the appropriate method. L+X X Fig 8 RED SEALANT TAPE Preheat each Lug and wrap two layers of Red Sealant Tape over the Lug barrel and extend onto the Insulation by approx 10mm. Installing Anti-Track Tube Position the Anti-Track Tubes so that they overlap the Earth connection point and outer Cable Sheath by 60mm as shown in Fig 10. User may trim the Tubes at the Lug end with a sharp knife if necessary. [. . . ] See Fig 14 showing the bending radius.
