N OTICE
ALWAYS follow proper cable-installation
practices. When installing cable that will be
attached to the switchgear, provide a strain-
relief segment to minimize the load on the
bushings. Cables must be allowed to expand
and flex without putting a significant load on
the bushings. For a pit, either loop the cable
in the pit or bring it into the pit horizontally
and up to the gear at a 90º angle. Failure
to follow these precautions can result
in damage to the bushings and bushing
wells.
STEP 4. Install cable-support brackets in accordance
with the appropriate reference drawing included
in the installation and operation information
kit. See Table 2.

① (catalog number suffix “-P1”) RD-7568
① Cable-support brackets are not required if the switchgear assem-
bly is supplied with a pad-mounted style enclosure to be installed on a
concrete pad.
STEP 5. Terminate the cables with user-furnished
separable insulated connectors, following the
manufacturer’s instructions.
