Cable preparation

N ote: If a non-Eaton 600 A T-body is being used, use the
stripback lengths given in the T-body kit, then proceed
to Step 7 of these instructions.
Step 1
Train cable
• Position cable so that it is centered between apparatus
bushing and parking pocket, parallel to apparatus
frontplate.
• Provide adequate cable slack for cable movement
between standoff bushing and apparatus bushing.
• Support cable as needed to maintain position.

bushing. (Refer to Figure 2.)

Cutbacks for concentric neutral cable
• If cable is not concentric neutral (metallic tape shielded,
longitudinally corrugated, wire shielded, or UniShield™)
use Eaton's SA series adapter kit with the same cutback
dimensions as concentric neutral below. If another
manufacturer's metallic shield adapter is used, follow the
cutback instructions in the shield adapter kit.
• Take care not to cut into the cable insulation.

• Cut a 45° chamfer into the end of the cable insulation.
• Clean the cable insulation wiping towards the semi-con
insulation shield.
• Apply a thin coating of the supplied lubricant to the cable
insulation and to the cable entrance of the cable adapter.
• Slide cable adapter onto the cable until the black portion
of the adapter touches the vinyl tape marker.
