1. Align the tap cable perpendicular to the main
run cable with a 3.18-mm [.125-in.] gap between
the cables. Fold back the top blue vinyl shield of
the tap cable. Cut and separate the top blue vinyl
only (approximately 457.2 mm [18 in.]). See
Figure 4. DO NOT cut the bottom blue vinyl
shield.
2. Carefully separate the main conductors and
tap conductors along the perforations for a length
of 152.4 mm [6.0 in.].
3. Ensure that the cable is clean by wiping it with
a dry, clean, soft cloth.
Figure 4
4. Position a tap connector around the
appropriate conductor on each cable starting with
position 1 of the crimping order shown in
Figure 5. Then, using Hand Tool 91392-1, crimp
the connectors as follows.
Refer to 408-10267, included with the tool, for
instructions on how to use the tool.
It is

a. Remove the cover paper from the tap
connector to expose the adhesive film.
b. Slide the tap connector around the
appropriate conductors.
c. With both cables lying flat on the floor, press
the tap connector firmly against the cable to
affix the adhesive.
d. Crimp one end of the tap connector onto one
end of the cable.
e. Crimp the other end of the tap connector
onto the other end of the cable.
f. Position and crimp the remaining tap
connectors following the crimping order shown
5. After crimping all of the tap connectors, install
Cable Insulator 556411-1 over all of the tap
