14.1Apply sealant to enclosure ports after termination#

SEAL PORTS– After termination of the cables, the ports must be sealed with a two bottle sealant - a clear solution and a blue solution.

MIX SEALANT – Pour all of the clear solution and blue solution into the gel mixing bag.

SHAKE – Immediately shake the mixture vigorously for 20 seconds until well combined.

POUR IMMEDIATELY – Apply liquid sealant by pouring into ports, being careful not to overfill ports and flood the base.

CAUTION – Be careful not to move the cables around in the sealant prior to it setting to avoid compromising the seal.
