Heat Shrinkable single core outdoor termination kits are used for terminating single core power cables that are used in outdoor environments where there is a risk of moisture, dust, and other environmental factors.
The heat shrinkable single core outdoor termination kit usually includes a range of components such as stress control tube, outer sealing tube, insulating layer, and other accessories that are required to create a waterproof and high-performing termination point for the cable.
To install a heat shrinkable single core outdoor termination kit, follow these general steps:
Check the cable size and termination kit - Before installation, make sure to check the cable size and the termination kit size to ensure that they are compatible.
Clean the cable - Clean the exposed cable ends with a lint-free cloth and alcohol solution to remove any dirt or moisture that could impact the quality of the termination.
Install the stress control tubes - Install any stress control tubes that come with the kit onto the cable, ensuring that they are centered and properly positioned.
Slide on the outer sealing tube - Slide the outer sealing tube onto the cable, making sure that it is in place before continuing.
Install the insulating layer - Slide the insulating layer onto the cable end, ensuring that it covers and seals the exposed wire ends.
Apply heat - Use a heat gun to shrink the termination kit components around the cable tightly and evenly.
Inspect the termination installation - Inspect the termination installation to ensure that all components are properly installed, and there are no gaps or exposed areas that could allow moisture or contaminants to enter.
It is important to follow the specific instructions that come with the heat shrinkable single core outdoor termination kit to ensure that it is properly installed and providing optimal performance.
