Cable to Cast Iron
Note:
When making connections to steel pipe, the mould must be adapted to the round steel surface.
This is done by adding a letter-code suffix to the mould type.
Example:
Type HA, 25 mm2 copper stranded cable to steel pipe O.D. 100 mm mold required HAA-Y1-G
Notice:
In some cases, a larger mold might be required when welding on pipe instead of on a flat surface.
