INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR TC CABLE CONNECTOR

CABLE CONNECTOR COMPONENTS

1. “O” Ring

2. Entry Component

3. Seal Insert*

4. Nut Insert*

5. Seal Nut

Note*: The Seal and Nut inserts are only used in

connector sizes 40 (1-1/4”) and below to
give two cable size ranges.

PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION

1. If using the smaller cable range there is no need to disassemble the connector. (Size ranges are
marked on the connector).

53 421

3. Secure the complete connector into the equipment.

4. Determine the conductor length to suit the geometry of the equipment and prepare the cable
accordingly, removing part of the outer sheath where required to reveal the insulated conductors.

2. Slacken the seal nut (5) to relax the seal.
Try to pass the cable through the connector. If
this is possible, move to stage 3.

If not dissassemble the connector and remove
the seal insert (3) and the nut insert (4).

This will allow the cable to pass through the
connector.

5. Pass the cable through the gland to the desired position hold the entry component (2) with a
spanner then tighten the seal nut until heavy resistance is felt. This will occur when:-

A) The seal nut (5) has clearly engaged the cable and cannot be further tightened without
the use of excessive force by the installer.
B) The seal nut (5) is metal to metal with the entry component (2). (This should only
happen on minimum cable sizes.)
