Table 3:  Electrical hardware components. 
5.3  Check o-rings (size 214) on all parts listed, making sure there are no cuts, nicks or 
scratches, install and replace as necessary. Lubricate o-rings and male threads only 
with a thin coating of clean downhole grease. 
5.4  Make up the firing head to the extension mandrels. The extension mandrels are used 
to protect the running tools from the detonation shock. 
5.5  Make up the firing head and extension mandrels to the running tools, making sure 
the firing head or CCL is made up to the electric wireline cable. Check fire and CCL 
function. Correct all problems before proceeding and recheck until correct. 
5.6  Ensure that cable is in the ‘SAFE’ position. Ensure a stray voltage and current survey 
has been performed and grounding lines are attached. Ensure ‘Radio Silence’ is in 
place. Clear the assembly and arming area of non-essential personnel. 
5.7  Check the firing circuit for the presence of stray voltage with a blasters multimeter in 
the volts position, between the lower contact and the body of the extension mandrel; 
first in the DC and then in the AC voltage position. Ensure that no voltage is present 
between the conductor and ground.
