THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY COMPETENT PERSONAL WITH ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT AND IN
SAFETY CONDITIONS.
READ CAREFULLY ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE STARTING CABLE PREPARATION. CHECK THAT ALL
COMPONENTS LISTED ON THE BILL OF MATERIAL ARE AVAILABLE.
HEAT SHRINK THE TUBES FOLLOWING THESE GOLDEN RULES:
Use only butan or propane gas torch.
Flame must be soft.
Heat the tubes uniformely.
Move the flame all around the circumference of tubes.
Start the heat-shrinking from the tubes end, directing the flame slowly towards the opposite side unless
otherwise indicated in the instructions below.
Do not insist on the same part.
Stop when completely shrunk.
1.1 Prepare the cable in such a way to simulate the final position, find the point where it must be cut then remove the exceeding
length.
1.2 Remove, from the head of a cable, the outer jacket for a dimension of “ 960 mm + X “ (X corresponding to the LUG DEPTH
+ 5 mm).
1.3 Roughen, by abrasive cloth contained in the kit, the outer jacket for about 100 mm, starting from the edge.
The sealing tape ELCOMASTIC 84 must be applied stretching it up to reduce the original width to the half,
approximately.
2.1 Apply two half-lapped layers of ELCOMASTIC 84 on the outer jacket edge for a tract of 50 mm starting from the edge.
3.1 Remove eventual containing tape, the equalizer copper tape too. Don' t cut the wires of the metallic screen, but turn back
completely on the outer jacket and fix them on to the cable at 100 mm (top tape edge) from the outer jacket edge, by some
laps of PVC tape ELCOPLAST 51.
3.2 Joint and twist the wires of the metallic screen together in order to obtain a strand-shape conductor, trim the wires edge,
and apply to the end the screen LUG available in the kit and crimp or screw it with a suitable tools.
4.1 Remove the cable semiconductor (if necessary use appropriate tool) leaving exposed 90 mm from the outer jacket edge.

5.1 Remove the insulation in such a way to expose the conductor of a cable for a dimension “ X ” (X corresponding to the LUG
DEPTH + 5 mm). Pay attention do not damage the conductor. Verify the other dimension shown.
5.2 Chanfer the insulation edge using the supplied abrasive cloth.
6.1 Insert a suitable Lug, onto the appropriate mating cores, ensuring that the lug is within the size specifications listed the bill
of material enclosed. Orient it correctly.
6.2 Crimp or shear it with a suitable tool following any instructions together.
6.3 If necessary, smooth the insulation surface, to be sure that all semiconducting traces are removed, using the supplied
abrasive cloth.
6.4 Chanfer the semiconductive edge using the supplied abrasive cloth.
- Remove any anti-oxidant paste that migrates of the lug;
- Remove any traces present on the lug using the abrasive cloth;
- Clean the insulation of the cable through the supplied cleaning tissue,
proceeding from the lug to the semiconductor to avoid dragging semi-
conductive particles on the insulation, if necessary, clean the semiconductor
being careful not to touch the insulation clean before;
- Fill properly with mastic the surface irregularities formed on the lug, following
the failure of the screws or crimp void.
The stress control tape ELCOSTRESS 11 must be applied stretching it up to reduce the original width to the half,
approximately.
7.1 Wrap four half lapped layers of ELCOSTRESS 11 tape, on the semiconductor edge, start the taping on the semiconductor
overlapping it for about 20 mm, continue on the insulation as far as to overlap it for about 50 mm.
7.2 Apply the ELCOSTRESS 11 on the exposed conductor, which is between insulation and lug, in such a way to level these
surfaces. Then continue to apply it with at least two half lapped layers or however, reaching the insulation's diameter, until
to overlap the cylindrical part of the lug itself for 20 mm and the insulation’s for 20 mm.
8.1 Apply the ELCOMASTIC 84, overlap the cylindrical part of the lug and the ELCOSTRESS 11 tapping for some mm, with at at
least two half lapped layers or however, reaching the insulation's diameter.

in such a way to position the bottom edge at 40 mm from the outer jacket edge.
10.2 Heat shrink the tube, as per the GOLDEN RULES, starting from the edge locate on the semiconductor towards the top.
REMOVE ELCOIL 21 AFTER THE HEATH SHRINKING AND CLEAN THE TUBE WITH APPROPRIATE SOLVENT.
11.1 Apply the ELCOSTRESS 11 around the top edge of stress control tube MCC.
12.1 Apply, wear the gloves contained in the kit, an uniform layer of ELCOIL 21, on the MCC HV tube starting at 150 mm from
the outer jacket edge and continue on it as far 50 mm from the edge see figure.
