Installation Instructions for 60 Amp CPH Slide-Lok® Plug
1. Disassemble plug as shown in FIGURE 2 by remov­ing sleeve locking screw (2) and unscrew plug housing (3) from plug sleeve (1). Loosen set screw (7) and unscrew gland nut(6). Remove ground screw (11) from plug sleeve (1) and take out contact block. It is not necessary to remove female contacts (13) from contact block (9). Make sure grounding contact with strap (12) is in proper location. See FIGURE 4.
2. Strip the cable jacket and individual conductors per TABLE A.
3. Select proper grommet (4) and cable clamp (14) orientation per TABLE B. Reverable cable clamps (just remove screws and ip over and replace screws) permit wide cables range. Convenient in installations having different cable sizes.
4. Slide gland nut (6), steel ring (5), proper grommet (4) and housing (3) in that order over cable.
5. Connect wires to proper terminals in contact block by loosening (but not removing) terminal pressure screws on contacts (10). Then inser t conductors including all strands into contact terminals according to your estab­lished wiring scheme. Tighten terminal pressure screws (10) to a minimum
WARNING
If any parts of the plug, receptacle or cable connector appear to be missing, broken or show signs of damage DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY. This condition could cause serious / fatal personal injury due to electrocution and or equipment damage. Repair with the proper replacement part(s) before continuing service.
WARNING
Electrical power must be turned "OFF" before and during installation and maintenance. Failure to do so may result
in serious or fatal injuries due to electrocution.
of 30 in-lb. torque. (Conductors must bottom in contact terminal well and installation must extend below surface of contact block). See FIGURE 3.
6. Position contact block assembly (9) in sleeve (1), attach ground strap (12) to sleeve (1) with ground strap screw (11) and torque to 25 in-lb. min. / 30 in-lb. max. Screw the combination of sleeve and contact block assembly into housing(3) until the hole in the sleeve (1) is aligned with the hole in the housing (3). thread in sleeve locking screw(2).
7. Slide proper grommet (4) and steel ring (5) up and as close to housing as possible. Force cable into wiring chamber to induce a minimum of 1/8 in. slack in the wire between the clamp and the terminals. Screw gland nut (6) onto housing (3) and torque per TABLE C. Finally, torque the set screw (7) in place to 10 in-lb. min. / 15 in-lb. max.
8. refer to TABLE B and FIGURE 5 for correct cable clamp (14) orientation. Tighten cable clamp screws (8) to a torque of 30 in-lb. min. / 35 in-lb. max. Screws were lubricated at the factory but if needed, relubricate with a good grade of grease.
WARNING
Do not modify these devices in amy way. Replace any missing or broken parts with proper replacement parts form Appleton Electric LLC. Modifi cation of these devices or substitution of parts with non-standard parts may result in serious / fatal personal injury from electrocution.
WARNING
Use cable with diameters within the specifi ed range given in TABLE B for any given grommet size and clamp orientation. failure to do so may result in over­stressed conductor terminations which could cause the conductors to pull out of the contacts and cause serious / fatal injuries due to electrocution.

Electrical Testing:
Do not connect to power until conducting the following electrical tests.
• Test continuity of wiring to verify correct phasing and grounding connections.
• Measure insulation resistance to be sure system does not have any short circuits or unwanted grounds.
FIGURE 3
A wire scheme must be followed so that
WARNING
the same color wire is always put into the same numbered contact opening in all plugs, connectors and receptacles in the system. This will insure the correct polar­ity for the system and helps to eliminate possibilities for equipment damage and / or personal injuries due to electrocution.
CAUTION
Plug and cord connections are rated for use with Type SO or equivalent portable cord with copper conductors ONLY.
CAUTION
Care must be taken not to cut into the individual conductor insulation when removing the outer cable cable jacket and to not damage the conductors when removing individual wire insulation. Failure to do so will seriously degrade the electrical properties of the cable and may produce overheating / electrical hazard due to electrocution.

WARNING
Use cable with diameters within the specialized range given in TABLE "B" for any given grommet size and clamp orienta­tion. Failure to do so may result in over stressed wire terminations which could cause the conductors to pull out of the contacts and cause serious / fatal injuries due to electrocution.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance:
Electrical and mechanical inspection of all com­ponents must be performed regularly. It is recom­mended that inspection be performed a minimum of once a year.
WARNING
If any parts of the plug, receptacle or cable connector appear to be missing, broken or show signs of damage DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY. This condition could cause serious / fatal personal injury due to electrocution and or equipment damage. Repair with the proper replacement part(s) before continuing service.
1. Inspect all contact wire terminals for tightness. (Retorque). Discoloration due to excessive heat is an indicator of possible problems and should be thor­oughly investigated and repaired as necessary.
2. Check grounding and bonding for correct installa­tion and secure connection. (Retorque).
3. Check gaskets for deterioration and replace if necessary.
4. Clean exterior surfaces making sure nameplates remain legible.
5. Inspect gland nut and cable grip tightness to ensure proper cord / cable gripping.
6. Torque all screws as described in instructions before reusing device.
7. Inspect housing parts and replace those which are broken or excessively worn.
8. Check contacts for signs of excessive arcing or burning and replace if necessary. In addition to these required maintenance proce­dures, we recommend an Electrical Preventative Maintenance program as described in the National Fire Protection Association Bulletin NFPA No. 70B.
