After each channel has been loaded with cables and attached with
harpoon ties, fairleads and retainers, examine the looms to make
sure they remain in position in the channel throughout their
length.
R (4) Repair of cables in raceways
R ____NOTE : When a cable is damaged or broken the standard procedure is to
R replace it with a cable that has the same P/N.
R For more data refer to chapter : Electrical wire repair -
R 20-53-2x.
R ____NOTE : In some cases, a parallel splices NSA936809 and sealing sleeve
R NSA937493 will be used for wire repairs.
R Take care to install the splices :
R - with cables in each end (refer to 20-43-12 Figure 002)
R - fully enclosed within the raceway channel
R - within a straight section of the raceway
R - between harpoon ties
R - not on a curved or angled section
R - not at a gap
R - not under a cable tie or other fastener
R - fully visible for inspection
R - with the environmental sleeve that extends a minimum of 15mm
R either side of the splice barrel
R - with the sleeve fully shrunk onto the cable to make sure
R that the meltable liner gives environmental sealing of the
R spliced joint.
R For more data refer to chapter : Electrical wire repair -
R 20-53-2x.
R Also refer to chapter: splices - 20-43-12.
R (5) Replacement of harpoon tie
(Ref. Fig. 001, 002)
- Great care shall be taken at all times during the replacement of
raceway ties.
This will usually require the removal of an existing tie.
- Removal will usually require the cutting through of the located
harpoon tie head, which is probably best carried out by the use of
sidecutters. Since most harpoon tie heads are located in generally
inaccessible positions, make sure that when the applicable head is
being cut that adjacent harpoon heads are not damaged. Cutting
tools do not damage the raceway or other surface treatments.
- When the harpoon tie head is removed, do not try to pull the
harpoon tie tail from the loom without first parting the cables to
assist the passage of the tie platform at the base of the tie.
