A. Prepare Cable
1. Check to be sure cable size fits within kit range as shown in Table 1 (cover page). 2. Prepare cable using dimensions shown in (Figure 1). Be sure to allow for depth of terminal lug. If necessary to prevent tape shield from unrolling, TEMPORARILY hold down edge with a single wrap of vinyl electrical tape. NOTE: Provide additional exposed conductor distance to account for growth during crimping of ALUMINUM lugs or connectors as follows: Aluminum Lug Growth Allowance Figure 1 Jacket Removal Length Depth Of Terminal Lug + Growth Allowance 9I (229 mm) 3I (76 mm) 1 1/2I (38 mm) 2 350 1/4I (6 mm) 400 650 1/2I (13 mm) 750 1000 3/4I (19 mm) 1250 2000 Field Determined

2. Position pre-formed ground braid with short tail over tape shield directly adjacent to cable jacket cut edge. Position long tail of ground braid, extending over cable jacket with solder block over mastic strip (Figure 3). Secure ground braid to cable jacket 4 1/2I (114 mm) from cable semi-con edge using vinyl tape (Figure 3). NOTE: Position vinyl tape with care, it also serves as a marker for positioning the termination. Figure 3

5. Wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around mastic seal, constant force spring and exposed tape shield (Figure 5). NOTE: Take care not to cover exposed semi-con insulation shield. A minimum of 1I (25 mm) must be exposed. SPECIAL NOTE FOR CLOTH OR PAPER SEMI-CON INSULATION SHIELD In cables with cloth or paper semi-conductive shields it is recommended the shield be over wrapped with one half-lapped layer of highly stretched semi-conductive rubber tape such as Scotch No. 13.

2. Position connector/lug and crimp according to manufacturers directions. Remove excess oxide inhibitor and sharp crimp flashings following crimping.
E. Install Termination
1. Slide the termination body onto the cable and remove core. Pull while unwinding, counter-clockwise, starting with the loose end (Figure 7). Make sure the termination body (not the core) is butted up to the edge of the vinyl tape marker previously applied (Figure 7). NOTE: Once the termination insulator has made contact over the mastic seal area, there is no need to continue supporting the assembly. Do not push or pull on the termination assembly while unwinding the core. Figure 7 Counter-Clockwise
2. When using a short barrel lug or connector on smaller size cable it may be necessary to trim any excess termination insulator from the lug or connector. 3. Connect ground braid to system ground according to standard practice.

NOTE: To ease jacket removal, install constant force spring as shown in Figure 18 and ring cut 80% through jacket. Remove jacket sections by pulling against constant force spring. DO NOT BELL SEMI-CON JACKET. Remove constant force spring. Some UniShieldR cables feature dual-layer semi-conductive jackets. Both layers must be removed during cable preparation.

2. Wrap ground braid around cable shield wires one complete wrap, trim excess to prevent overlap and secure in place with constant force spring. Wrap spring in same direction as ground braid (Figure 21). Cinch (tighten) the spring after wrapping the final winding. 3. Select second mastic strip from kit and remove white release liners. Apply a second mastic band over solder block on ground braid and previously applied mastic (Figure 21). Cut off excess. Figure 21
