ERITECH ® ERICORE down-
conductor cable has been
specifically designed to cope
with extremely high impulse
voltages and currents. Due
to the nature of the cable
construction, and its working
environment, it is very
important that each step
is followed and carried out
exactly as per the following
instructions.
The special insulation cutting tools have
been supplied to facilitate the cutting
of the cable’s insulation layers, while
preventing damage to other layers, such as
the copper foil.
It is important to cover all
exposed metallic surfaces
(copper, hose clamp, lug,
ground rod clamp, etc.) To
avoid the risk of corrosion.
14. Place the ‘VITAL WARNING’ label
(supplied in the kit) in a suitable place near
the downconductor.
Note: If an upper termination has
already been performed on the cable,
then start with STEP 23 on page 37.
