all for f all real use because some dimwit engineer couldnt make some rubber membrane or slideable metal sheet etc to get them in easier. a simple U shaped receiving slot that has 2 seperate squares can slide into with holes to take the metal armor clamps. 5$ of mfg cost in a 10000$ cabinet or abuse some poor electricians for an entire work day in a dangerous manner and 200x more cost.

I recall having to remove components from a European made cabinet which did not have a UL sticker, to place in an identical cabinet which did. Then the American inspector was satisfied. To me, the durability of the European cabling thing in industrial machinery is superior, but not to most American inspectors when they don't see a UL or CSA sticker.

Lovely. I still have a 1 meter section of 400mm 4core SWA complete with 100mm brass CW gland in my garage from a job I did years ago. All the scrap got weighed in but due to the novelty of it being the largest multicore I had dealt with I kept a section as a trophy. Used to regularly terminate 1000mm single core copper SWA’s but they were a doddle compared to the multicores. I was considerably fitter back then!

Metal filing trick for you if you like... You can build a dam around your drill area on the top of the enclosure from wide masking tape looped lengthwise into long tubes with the sticky side out. I dislike having to deal with filing cleanup around gear. The tape catches most of the filings automatically and you can use it like a sponge to pick up the rest.

As a consulting engineer, I try to avoid specifying above 240mm2 SWA's and going down the parallel or singles route. These cables become too unwieldy at these sizes and the bend radius becomes monstrous. Also nice to see people using cleats rather than cable ties on sub-mains.

The little trick jointtech showed you with working out gland location can be used over a much longer distance. Use a smaller piece of sac cable to work out your swoop off the ladder and transfer it to your 185, saves wrestling the big cable as much. Also you can take a few cleats off your ladder to lose some length to help get your nose into the hole. I’ve also never glanded in place like that on something as big. I’m not saying it’s wrong but I much prefer to gland first then send it in as 1

Yeah I’ve used it over far longer distances, bit of trunking lid works great too. Yeah could’ve dropped some cleats but it doesn’t always go back the same when you do that.

For sure, but when there is wresting involved the cable can get damaged by the hole in the gland plate. The bend we was trying to create while glanding would force the edge of the whole to cut into the sheath on multiple occasions. Many different ways to do it though, I’ve done both methods extensively, depends on the situation.

You should have removed the gland plate and fed cable down so when you cut armoured its the correct length and fits square on the gland. Once you move or bend that cable the armoured with move to different lengths and makes things awkward.

You’ll find it much easier glancing the cable before putting it into the panel bud. Put the lock ring on after

​​@@residualelectricalwhere as I'd have removed the gland plate, glanded both cables off and into the plate and then wrestled the plate and cables back into position. Granted its relient on pre-forming your cable bends as much as possible but my point is there's loads of ways to do the same job. All we used to have was nylon rope, a hack saw and a Stanley knife. God I feel old 😂

Putting gland fully on first only works good for smaller cable. Big cable like that you have todo it how he has else you’ll just chew the fuck out the cores

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="270">4:30</a> Ever drilled one too big on a friday afternoon then tell the guys on monday that the extra metal plate on top of the DB is for structural support around the gland? :D Also not to be that guy but at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="387">6:27</a> you should really be using a contact washer + spring washer, because the metal is painted. Just a week ago I was fixing up something like that because it resulted in a 51 ohm loop impedance on the chassis

If I had to guess that this was a test stand application since those drives are not your typical VFD. Also cable like this is typically only used for the output leads that have lots of high frequency harmonics (in the US). These cable assemblies are terrible to work with.
