(c) Installation Considerations
(1) Determining Wire Length: The length of wire from the point at which the shield
is split off to the terminations in the connector must be as short as possible to
allow the wire to lay in the backshell without straining the wires.
(2) Grounding: Taylor Backshells have an external tapped hole that can be used to
attach a ground strap. This can be used at the installer's discretion.
(3) Shell Aperture: When the strain relief is tightened against the wire bundle
ensure that there are no large openings in the shell back and that the wires are
held securely. A different size strain relief can be required if the wire bundle is
too small. Wrapping wires in the connector throat is acceptable to bring the
bundle diameter up to a size that can be properly clamped.
