Note: Ensure that the heat gun or gas torch is not pointed in the same area for too long as this
will burn the heatshrink. Also be careful around the ends of the tube as too much heat will
damage the black outer sheath, semi-conductive tape and black insulation.
Figure 30.
11. Place the 2nd 600 mm heatshrink tube into place over the cable, again ensuring that the
semi-conductive tape is not damaged, overlapping the previous heatshrink tube by
approximately 6 cm. Shrink about 7 cm 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. Note: That there is a mark on the lower finial connector indicating where the heat-
shrink needs to be fitted to. Shrink the rest of the heatshrink from the top down, ensuring
that it overlaps the previous piece of heatshrink by at least 6 cm Figure 31. Ensure the rest
of the heatshrink has a smooth overall finish. Note: Do not bend the cable while the heat
shrink is still hot.
Note: If required, feed the cable through the mast sections & guying ring prior to refitting the
mast butt adaptor. Replace the plastic mast butt adaptor section of the mast base assembly
back onto the lower finial connector and ensure that the M6 Phillips head screw is tight and
secure.

12. The lugged HVSC Plus is now ready to be connected to the base of the Stormaster
terminal. Screw the terminal onto the completed terminal base assembly and secure with
the supplied M6 locking grub screw.
