STRIP LENGTH

1. Prepare the cable by cutting the jacket and armour to suit the Installation. Strip the jacket back a further
distance as shown in the tables above. Cut any fillers or sheath around the cores flush with the end of the
armour.

2. Using a clean cloth wipe the cable cores to remove any dust. Wrap some tape around the end of the cable
cores so that the resin seal is not damaged when the cable is fitted to the connector.

3. Secure the TMCX connector to the equipment by screwing it into a threaded entry. To maintain IP66/68 ensure,
that the thread gasket is in place for metric entry threads.
If the gland has NPT entry threads then IP68 (2m) can be achieved by applying one of the following tested and
approved grease types to the thread:- Renolit Lubrene CA700 or LX220 EP2, Renolit LC-WP2 or Moly LX2, or
Dow Corning 4 Electrical Compound.

  
4. Slacken the body  to relax the internal spring and rubber seal. DO NOT fully unscrew the body. Do not

slacken the captive nut .

5. Introduce the cable into the connector carefully so that the resin seal  is not damaged. Push the cable
forward until the cable armour contacts the end stop . (If it is not possible to pass the cable cores
through the bore of the plastic end stop then remove the end stop from the gland as it is not needed for
that cable size. The cable armour will then contact a step within the gland entry item.) The tape can be
removed from the cable cores.

6. Tighten the body  to close down the earthing spring onto the cable armour. Continue tightening until 
the outer seal contacts the jacket and then tighten the body one more full turn.   

7. Slacken the captive nut  fully whilst withdrawing the connector body. The connector assembly should
come free leaving only the entry item  in the equipment. The connector assembly should now be
positioned so that it is vertical , ready for the liquid resin to be introduced into the barrier pot . Separate
the cores slightly to allow resin to flow between them.

8. Remove the cap ⑪ from resin applicator and attached the mixing nozzle ⑫ (use extension nozzle for small
multicore cables). Whilst holding the barrier pot sub-assembly  upright inject the resin into the resin
chamber*. Ensure the resin fills all the way to the top of the protective resin pot  and wipe any excess
resin away.


Wait for the resin to set from a liquid to a gel, this should take:
• 15 minutes at 10°C
 
• 7 minutes at 20°C
• 6 minutes at 30°C ⑪
• 5 minutes at 40°C

For installations in less than 5°C Ambient, warm the Resin tube in warm water at ± 50°C. ⑫
If there is still resin left in the tube, discard the mixing nozzle ⑫ and replace the cap ⑪ for
use with the next gland.


* The installation is acceptable if the cable sheath is pushed 2mm or 3mm into the resin seal.

9. Once the resin has cured the connector assembly can be re-introduced into the entry item. Tighten the captive nut  to complete the assembly.
