Securing and terminating cables
Once a cable has been prepared for termination, it must be connected to a unit or cabinet.
Prerequisites
Electrical installations can only be done by certified electricians. All necessary tools and
instruments required must be available. The installation shipyard must prepare detailed
drawings of the electrical system, and identify each cable.
Context
Observe the relevant cable plans, cable lists and/or interconnection drawings for the
EK80.
Procedure
1 Referring to the wiring diagram and ensuring that there is 5 to 10 cm slack cable
inside the cabinet, prepare and connect the cable cores to the appropriate terminals
and/or plugs within or onto the cabinet.
2 Secure the cable using cable clips.
3 Check the terminal connections against the wiring diagram to ensure they are
correct. Follow the same procedure for all the cables and cable glands.
4 Check the cabinet to ensure all tools and rubbish are removed, then close the
cabinet door.
5 Take the appropriate safety measures, then replace the fuses and apply power to
the system.
6 Perform a relevant system test to ensure the installation has been made successfully.
