Installation Requirements
For proper installation of
these devices, the correct
crimp tool and a heating
tool with a reflector
attachment must be used.
The AD-1522 crimp tool and
HL1910E/ HL2010E heating
tool are recommended.
You will find ordering infor-
mation for these tools in
Section 10.
Refer to TE installation
procedure RPIP-821-00 for
detailed instructions.
Installation
1. Select splice of appropri-
ate size. Strip wire 7.5
mm (5/16 in). Insert into
crimp barrel.
2. Crimp using AD-1522
crimp tool for preinsu-
lated crimps.
