1. INTRODUCTION

This manual covers the operation and maintenance of Cordless Electric Power Tool Kit 1976330-1, which is

used to apply COPALUM* Splices to solid-conductor wire. See Figure 1. Read this manual carefully before

attempting to operate the tool for the first time. The performance of the tool depends largely on the intelligent

use of the information contained in this manual.

NOTE

This manual is for tooling revisions C and above.

The tool is used in the TE Connectivity Aluminum Wire Re- termination Program, which provides materials and

procedures to modify branch circuits in aluminum- wired homes in compliance with the National Electrical

Code. The program is intended only for qualified electricians and uses only materials listed by Underwriters

Laboratories.

The program consists of permanently joining a short length, or pigtail, of solid-copper wire to existing number

12 and 10 solid aluminum wires in 15 ampere and 20 ampere branch circuits. The wires are spliced using

COPALUM splices and TE tooling. The pigtailed copper wire is then connected to the electrical device.

Ordinary branch-circuit wiring methods are used. Aluminum-to-aluminum wire splices are modified by

permanently joining the wires using COPALUM splices and TE tooling.

This program covers modifications of all 15 ampere and 20 ampere branch circuit connections, such as plug

receptacles, switch devices, junction boxes, and all field-wired appliances, such as lighting fixtures, garbage

disposals, furnace fans and controls, electrical accessories on gas appliances, exterior lighting fixtures, breaker

boxes, and other electrical panels.

When reading this manual, pay particular attention to DANGER, CAUTION, and NOTE statements.

2. DESCRIPTION

Cordless Electric Power Tool Kit 1976330-1 is a portable hand tool kit featuring an integral die set with two

crimping chambers. (Refer to Figure 3.) These crimp chambers allow the tool operator to splice a wide variety

of wire sizes and combinations without having to repeatedly remove and replace die sets.

The kit contains a battery powered crimp tool, a battery pack, and a battery charger. The kit also contains the

carrying case for these components.

2.1. Electrical Requirements

The tool is powered by a removable, rechargeable battery pack, which is supplied with a recharging unit. The

recharging unit operates on 115 Vac line power, and charges the battery pack from full discharge to full charge

in approximately 30 minutes.

2.2. Functional Description (Figure 3)

With a fully-charged battery pack installed in the tool, the operator places a splice onto the wire to be crimped.

The splice is then loaded into the appropriate crimp chamber of the tool.

When the control button is pressed, the motor starts, operating a hydraulic cylinder, which pushes up on the die

anvil, bottoming the dies. A special feature of the tool ensures that each splice is fully crimped before the dies

reopen. This feature provides high-quality, consistent crimps.

The hydraulic unit incorporates an automatic retraction feature which returns the piston to its starting position

when the maximum operation pressure is reached. The integrated pressure sensor automatically identifies the

achieved crimping force during every crimping operation. If the set operating pressure is not met, an audible

alert sounds and a red LED flashes (see Figure 15).

The tool is equipped with a microprocessor which shuts off the motor automatically after the crimp is

completed, indicates service intervals, low battery conditions, and performs internal checks sending out audible

and optical warning signals in case of a detected fault.

409-10104

Rev B

5 of 12

The unit is equipped with a special brake which stops the forward motion of the dies when the control button is

released.

The crimping head can be rotated 330° in order to gain better access to tight corners and other difficult working

conditions.

NOTE

The tool is designed to provide a complete crimp with every cycle. When the control button is pressed and held, the tool will

cycle until it has returned to the starting position.

DANGER

Keep fingers clear of the crimping dies during the crimping operation.

3. OPERATION

3.1. Crimping/Die/Splice Selection

Depending on the size and type of wires encountered, the operator will use one of two splice sizes, along with

the corresponding die set in the tool. To determine the correct splice and die set for your application, refer to

Figure 3. Find the correct size, composition, and combination of wires encountered, then determine the correct

splice as shown in Figure 4.

Also listed is the color code found on the splice and on the proper die set on the tool.

3.2. Crimping Procedure

CAUTION

Make sure that you are using the correct COPALUM splice and crimp chamber for the aluminum wire or aluminum and copper

wire size combinations that you are going to crimp. The color dot code stripe on the splice and the color code and dot on the

crimping dies MUST match. Do not alter COPALUM splices by removing the internal perforated inserts. If you have any

questions concerning proper application, contact your local TE Representative.

Insert the battery pack in the tool.

Refer to Figure 4, select the proper splice, and proceed as follows:

1. Make sure that each wire extends a minimum of 25.4 mm [1 in.] from any electrical box or wall

surface.

2. If more wires must be spliced than allowed on the table in Figure 4, use “piggy back”crimps to splice

all wire. Refer to Figure 5.

409-10104

Rev B

Figure 5

3. Strip each wire to the proper length as indicated in Figure 6. When stripping the wires, do NOT nick or

cut the conductors. If a conductor is damaged, cut the wire and strip it again.

Figure 6

4. Place the correct splice on the stripped wire.

5. Insert the correct splice into the crimping chamber with the color code dot matching the color code

stripe on the splice. The back of the splice should bottom against the urethane stop behind the

crimping dies.

6. Press the control button of the tool until the moving anvil grips the splice. Check for proper positioning

of splice in the crimp chamber.

DANGER

Keep fingers away from the crimping area when operating the tool.

7. Continue to press the control button to crimp the splice. The tool should cycle and stop. Release the

control button immediately when the cycle stops. Allow tool to retract fully open position before

pressing control button again. If the tool stops mid-cycle, the battery pack must be changed. Refer to

Paragraph 3.5, Battery Charging, for detailed information on replacing the pack.

8. When the tool stops, remove the crimped splice from the tool. See Figure 7.

3.3. Crimp Inspection

1. Refer to Figure 8 and check each splice for the following:

a. Crimp centered in splice.

b. Splice size stamped on splice agrees with wire combination shown in Figure 4.

c. Die proof mark present on underside of splice (- for No.8 dies, = for No.6 dies).

d. Wire ends extend past splice end.

e. No wire insulation in crimped splice; no cross-overs

f. No open crack at splice seam.

2. Check each crimped splice with the secondary crimp gage to be sure of a proper crimp. Find the gage

end with the color code dot matching the color code stripe on the splice. Align the splice as shown in

Figure 9 and insert the splice into the gage. The splice should enter the gage easily.

Figure 8

3. If the splice does not meet the gage test, check that the proper wire sizes and combinations listed in

Figure 4 were used, cut off the splice, strip the wires, and apply a new splice.
