INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS T-PMPI-256-PC
COPPER COMPRESSION CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
1. Use a connector marked for the wire size and wire material to be used. NEVER
use a copper connector on aluminum wire.
2. Strip wire insulation to approximate length shown on tool chart. DO NOT nick
or ring the conductor strands.
3. Clean the wire.
4. Insert stripped wire into connector until the wire stops.
5. Use tool chart on reverse side of this sheet to: a) select crimp tool to terminate
part, b) select crimp die listed under tool selection by matching crimp die color
code and die index number of crimp die to color bands and die index number
marked on connector c) Note number of crimps to be placed in connector is
shown in ( ) next to die color code and die index number in tool chart. d) Crimp
connector by placing first crimp in barrel near the tongue of the lug or wire stop
in the splice and place successive crimps in the barrel of the connector working
towards the wire entry. Evenly space crimps on barrel of the connector using barrel
stripes as a guide. Barrel stripes do not designate the number of crimps to be placed
in barrel of the connector.
6. After crimping, inspect for sharp edges, flash or burrs and remove if present.
HEAT SHRINK INSULATION INSTRUCTION
1. Refer to Panduit catalog or www.panduit.com for heat shrink material information,
tubing size, voltage rating, and shrink temperature.
2. Cut tubing to length allowing insulation coverage as desired. Allow a minimum
of 1-1/2" inch overlap on wire insulation.
3. Shrink with a standard propane torch or heat gun, MOVING FROM CRIMPED
PORTION OF CONNECTOR TOWARD INSULATED WIRE. Adhesive flow at
ends indicate shrinkage complete.
