the cable for termination.
c) Check and ensure the lug properly crimps and stress free fit to the terminal.
d) Ensure that correct size and type of bolt, torque wrench with valid certificate is available.
e) Clean and degrease the equipment terminal.
f) Carefully fit the cable on the equipment terminal, check and align cable in proper
manner.
g) Insert the bolt and tight carefully, torque the bolt according to manufacturer
recommendation.
h) Provide torque mark after each bolt has been done / torque.
i) Provide contact grease / moisture protection on bolt / terminal (Only if required by
manufacturer or engineering specification).
j) Fix necessary terminal cover/protection.

k) Clean the area as well as internals of panels/termination box/ cubicles/All leftover / cut
piece cables/wires shall be returned to the stores or designated/ disposal area as
instructed by client
l) Connection to SS shall be performed and followed DEWA specification and standards.
m) Regarding FO splicing, all requirements shall be followed (e.g. FOC Splicing area should
be free of dust installing some tend around the work area, etc.)
5 NATURE OF WORK
a) Confined Space - Confined Space Permit shall obtain and copy must be available at site when the
activities is being done under confined space area like cable pit etc. Section 6.2.2.7 Confined space
