Instructions For Tape Shielded Cable
2.0 Prepare Cable
2.1 Check to be sure cable size fits within kit size range as shown in Table 1.
2.2 Prepare cable using dimensions shown in Figure 1. Refer to Table 2 for semi-con cutback dimension.
BE SURE TO ALLOW FOR DEPTH OF TERMINAL LUG. If necessary to prevent tape shield from
unrolling, hold down edge with a single wrap of 3M™ EMI Copper Foil Shielding Tape 1181.
NOTE: Provide additional exposed conductor distance to account for growth during crimping of ALUMINUM
lugs or connectors as follows:
Aluminum Connector
Growth Allowance
NOTE: It is imperative to remove all remnants of the semi-con layer, even if the semi-con layer comes off as one
layer. There should not be any remaining black areas, or particles, on the cable insulation layer.

4.2 Position connector or lug and crimp according to manufacturer's directions. Remove excess oxide inhibitor and
sharp crimp flashings following crimping.
5.0 Clean Cable Insulation and Lug or Connector Barrel Using Standard Practice
5.1 Wipe the cable insulation with one of the solvent saturated pads from the 3M™ Cable Cleaning Preparation Kit
CC-2. DO NOT ALLOW SOLVENT TO TOUCH SEMI-CON INSULATION SHIELD!
5.2 If abrasive must be used:
a. Use on insulation only. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE ON SEMI-CON INSULATION SHIELD!
b. Use only aluminum oxide abrasive; grit 120 or finer, included in the 3M™ Cable Cleaning Preparation Kit
CC-2.
c. Be careful not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below that allowed by the kit.
