TAP Installation
HTAP Cover Installation
1. Locate desired position of TAP along main wire run.
Allow clearance for tap wires (and cover installation
if applicable). See clear cover table on page D3.13.
2. Strip insulation from wires to the length shown in
the TAP table on page D3.14. Use care to avoid
damaging the conductors.
3. Position wires in the appropriate tap grooves.
4. For easier installation, apply one of the flame retardant
cable ties (provided) around the wires and through the
slots in the TAP. The head of the cable tie
must be positioned along the side of the TAP as shown in
Figure A. Tension and cut off excess length of tie. Additional cable ties may be used adjacent to the TAP to
secure the wires.
5. Install the correct dies (see page D3.94) into the crimping tool. Position the locator die into the stationary die
holder. Note: The color code and die index number shown on the HTAP and crimping dies
must match.
6. Position the TAP against the locator in the stationary die holder of the crimping tool.
7. After crimping, if desired, cut off the cable tie head or remove the entire cable tie. Note: In some cases, the
cable tie head must be cut off in order for the crimped connector to fit inside the insulating cover.
1. If labels are being utilized, cut labels to the dimensions
shown below. Note: When using a Panduit
®
Pan-Ther
™
LS8E printer, the length dimensions
can be easily programmed to provide cut-off marks.
2. Position the label(s) in the pockets inside the cover and
snap in the label retainer(s) as shown in Figure B.
Information can be marked on the matte finish label
retainers in lieu of using a separate label.
3. Position one cover half around the crimped connector
assembly. Align the second cover half with the first and
snap together.
4. Install the two flame retardant cable ties (provided) in
the grooved areas on the cover. Tension and cut off
excess lengths of ties.
