this will burn the Heatshrink, also be careful around the ends of the tube as too much heat
will damage the Black PVC Outer Sheath, Semi-Conductive Tape and White XLPE Insulation.

600mm Heatshrink tube into place over the cable, again ensuring that the
nd
Semi-Conductive tape is not damaged, overlapping the previous Heatshrink tube by at
least 3cm. Shrink about 7cm of the upper end of the Heatshrink into place so that it will
sit flush with the base of the Plastic Mast Butt Adaptor when fitted back into place.
Shrink the rest of the Heatshrink, ensuring that it overlaps the previous piece of
Heatshrink by at Least 3cm. (Figure 34) Ensure the rest of the Heatshrink has a smooth
overall finish. Note: If required, feed the cable through the mast sections & guying ring.
Replace the plastic Mast Butt Adaptor section of the Terminal Base Assembly back onto
the brass connector and ensure that the M6 Phillips Head screw is tight and secure.
