Step 15
Check tightness of termination
•
Check tightness by hand by moving T-body forward and
back (perpendicular to the apparatus frontplate). Do not
move side to side as this may loosen the connection.
•
If tight:
• Re-torque to 55 ft-lbs.
•
If loose:
• Remove BLRTP and T-body from apparatus bushing.
• Inspect threads of the stud and BLRTP for damage. If
damaged, replace damaged component and re-install
per previous installation instructions.
• If no damage is found, re-install per previous installa-
tion instructions.
Step 16
Cap the 200 A interface
•
Clean and lubricate 200 A interface of BLRTP and mating
product (i.e., Protective Cap, Grounding Elbow, M.O.V.E.
Arrester) with lubricant supplied. (Refer to Figure 29.)
•
Follow installation instructions supplied with product
used.

Step 14
Install reducing tap plug
•
Clean and lubricate mating interfaces of T-body and reduc-
ing tap plug (BLRTP).
•
Insert BLRTP into back of T-body engaging the threads of
the stud. See Figure 27.
•
By hand, turning clockwise, thread BLRTP in as far as
possible.
•
Using a 3/8" drive torque tool and HD635 (5/16" hex
shaft), complete threading clockwise until tight. Torque to
55 ft-lbs. See Figure 28.
