What are the four steps of tag out?

1 identifying the source of the energy to the cable. 2 securing the power. 3 hanging a red danger, tag or a lockout device on the power control and source to warn others. 4 frisking the cable.

compression bolt

A bolt that seats the compression plate and seals the cables in the assembly when tightened

end cap

A couple like device made of heat, shrinkable tubing, closed at one end. It is used to cover the ends of conductors in cables.

hanger

A device used to support and route cables, keep cables from interfering with each other, and with the equipment, and keeps cables for moving and shaving upon lose from connectors.

Drip loop

A loop formed in a cable at a point where it enters the equipment or closure. Condensation on moisture and water that forms on the cable will drop off the loop and will not enter the equipment.

Stay plate

A metal fitting that distributes the compression force evenly. These plates have ridges that keep the neoprene packing insert blocks from dislodging under pressure and keep them position within the frame they are normally place between every other full row of neoprene packing insert blocks

Compression plate

A metal form used to seat and compress the neoprene insert blocks and state plates, so that the end packing can be inserted into the transit frame

Filler tape

A partially cured rubber base tape used to fill indentations around the spice conductors. It is pliable, and may be shaped to some degree of conform to the cable contour.

Stuffing tube

A pipe or other tubular device which provides for water, tight and fire proof, penetration of a bulkhead or deck by an electrical cable. Two types of stuffing tubes are kick pipes and bulkhead tubes.

deck

A platform serving as a structural element in forming the floor of its compartments.

Vinyl sheathing, tape

A relatively heavy vinyl tape used to cover spliced areas, providing protection, for the conductors against wearing abrasion. Sometimes are made from heat, shrinkable vinyl, and have a piece of which amounts to see the tape to the cable.

Multi cable plug

A round device used to pass a small number of cable through decks and bulkheads while maintaining water tight integrity

Bulkhead Tube

A short tube to provide through a bulkhead for electrical cable. This tube provides watertight integrity and prevent the spread of fire and smoke between compartments.

Gland nut

A special night witch threads into a stuffing tube to compress the packing material to provide a seal around the cable.

frame

A steel or aluminum member welded to a deck or bulkhead opening that holds the entire assembly of an MCT together

Kick pipe

A steel or aluminum tube used to provide passage for an electrical cable through a deck. They kicked by provides physical protection for the cable, and it provides a waterproof and fire proof barrier. The cake pipe normally extends 9 inches above the deck.

Downcomer

A support that is pre-drill to aid in the placing of tears on a cable way.

Plug

A threaded device to seal the tat hole or threaded insert that is installed in the transit frame

PVC

A tough plastic resin used to shield cables.

Riser top

A tube similar in size and shape to a bulkhead tube, with the exception that the opposite end of the tube is threaded internally to except threaded pipe. When this riser top is threaded onto a section of thread pipe, it is installed in the same manner as a kick pipe or swage tube.

Crimp connectors

A tubular metal connector made to match various wire sizes, which may or may not be insulated with a plastic sleeve in fastened to the conductor ends by means of a crimping tool

Silicone, rubber, glass tape

Also called binder tape. A thin composition tape with a high dielectric constant, which is used as a primary insulator, overbear, connectors, or conductors. The adhesive coating on this team is very thin and may be made unfit for use by handling with dirty or oily fingers.

Minimum Bend Radius

An amount of space allowed when a cable changes direction to penetrate equipment or position get in around an obstacle or break off a termination.

Swage

An indentation around the circumference of a stuffing to which acts as a start for the packing materials

Bulkhead

An upright partition separating compartment.

Collars

Another term for chafing rings.

Multi-meter

Attest instrument, having a number of different ranges for measuring voltage, current, and resistance. Also known as a circuit, analyzer or multipurpose tester.

Endsealing

Covering a conductor or cable, and to insulate the conductors, prevent moisture from entering, and eliminate shock hazard.

Spray tight

Describes a device constructed I'm protected

Splashproof

Describes a device constructed to protect from external splashing, will not interfere with it operation

Non-watertight

Describes a device so constructed that it will not exclude water applied in the form of a stream from my house.

Banding buckle

Device used to secure a banding material.

Hose Clamp

Device used to secure a small runs of cable.

Banding Tool

Device used to tighten and cut banding material.

Multi cable frame

Device when welding to a bobcat or deck, opening and sealed with blocks in Spanish permits, the passage of Gables, while maintaining water tank integrity

Tag out procedure

Ensuring that the energy source to a cable is the energize before any work on that circuit begins tag out has four steps

Dead ended cable

Hey, de energized cable which is disconnected at one or both ends

Endpacking

I neoprene insert assembly use to seal the area above the compression play around the compression bolt

Insulating sealer

I neoprene liquid cement coating which forms a waterproof seal over spliced areas. A common trade name is Scotchkote.

VIC\VOC rings

Inner and outer, respectively, crimp rings, which are used to plant braided metal. She'll see each other. Application requires use a special size crimping tool.

crimping tool

Mechanical device, which is used to fasten electrical connectors to cable, conductors by forcefully compressing the connector onto the conductor. This Thome have interchangeable, dies or jaws to fit various size connectors.

Neoprene inserts

Neoprene blocks that seal the area around the cable to maintain a water, tight integrity. These blocks are half forms that are placed on top of and bottom of cable to ensure that watertight integrity. They also come as solid form is used as spares

tier

Rack. Used to support a cable.

Chasing rings

Round or oval metal shapes that cables are pass through, mounted in either a bulkhead, or a deck, that I used to protect cables from cramping and rubbing against middle ages, that would otherwise we're away the insulation and lead to breaking or shorting of cables.

Channel rubber

Rubber material used to protect an armored and non-PVC cable from being damaged by the banding applied around it.

Spare blocks

Solid neoprene pieces use to fill spares in transit in multi cable. Flags were no cables are past.

Banding material

Stainless steel strap used to secure large bundles of table.

MCP lubricant

Substance used to coach the insert blocks permitting easier insertion and providing an additional seal, normally referred to as tallow

crotch

The section between conductors that meets at the sheathing of the cable.

frisking

Using a multimeter or other instruments, such as a voltmeter to test the cable to be sure, there is no power to that cable.

Heat shrinkable tubing

Vinyl electrical installation tubing what shrinks in size when heat is applied to it. It is available in various diameter sizes.
