Mounting the T504
To mount the T504 assembly on a cable strand, you need to secure the cable
clamps that are attached to the strand interface to the cable strand.
1 Slightly loosen the nuts that fasten the two cable clamps to the strand interface,
enough for the strand support cable to fit into the cable clamps.
2 Place the cable clamps on the strand support cable.
3 Tighten the two cable clamp nuts to 22 to 27 N.m (16 to 20 ft-lbs) to secure the
mounting.
You have mounted the T504. Continue with
Earth Grounding the T504
The cable strand is usually earth-grounded, and mounting the T504 on the cable
strand earth grounds the T504 chassis as well; if this is the case, skip this procedure
and continue with

national electrical codes. For additional lightning protection, use lightning rods and
lightning arrestors.
.
If the cable strand is not earth-grounded, then continue with the following:
1 The color coding of ground wires varies by region. Before completing this step,
check your local wiring standards for guidance.
2 Using the factory-supplied ground screw and washers, use the factory-supplied
earth ground wire with ring terminal to connect a good earth ground to the T504
