2.3
Cut the phase cores to the appropriate length. 
Cores of Cable X should be 33" (838 mm) when
measured from the cable jacket end or 31 1/2"
(800 mm) when measured from end of the armor.
Cores of Cable Y should be 25" (635 mm) when
measured from the cable jacket end or 23 1/2"
(597 mm) when measured from end of the armor.
2.4
Bind the metallic shields of both Cable X and 
Cable Y cores with a copper tape strip at a point 
11 1/2" (292 mm) from the end of each conductor. 
Remove the metallic shields to the copper tape 
binding. 
If the phase cores are individually jacketed, remove 
the individual jackets a distance of 15" (381 mm) 
from the end of each conductor.

Remove cable semi-conductive insulation screen 
from cores of  both Cable X and Cable Y for
a distance of 8 1/2" (216 mm) from the end of each 
conductor.
Note:
Cables must be within Insulation O.D. range of
the splice kit. 
2.6
Remove cable insulation from conductors ends of  
both Cable X and Cable Y
Remove cable insulation for 1/2 connector length plus
an allowance for increases in  connector length due
to crimping.  Insulation removal length shall not
exceed 3 1/4" (83 mm) from conductor end.
Do not install connectors now. 
*Note: This assumes that the installer has determined
the increased length of an aluminum connector 
crimped with a specific tool and die.
