4 Pole Mount Installation
Introduction
You can install an ECN on any standard utility pole, in either the supply space or
the common area. The ECN provides a carrying loop that you can tie with a rope
so that you can easily carry the ECN while climbing the pole. The ECN is also
small and light enough that you can carry it while working from a boom lift.
After installation, the ECN can withstand a 1330 J/m (300 ft-lb) force, for
example, from a utility worker standing on the unit. The ECN is designed to be
small enough that a utility worker can gaff up the pole and around the unit with
minimal difficulty.
The installation includes a bracket that you attach to the utility pole. You then
attach the ECN to the installed bracket. Subsequent replacement or installation
of an ECN can reuse the installed bracket, thus substantially reducing
replacement installation time and effort. In addition, you can connect or
disconnect the ECN from either power or the communications network easily,
without having to uninstall the entire unit.
Required Tools
To perform the installation for the ECN and the Pole Mounting Bracket, you will
need the following tools:
• A drill, with drill bit appropriate for a 1.6 cm (5/8 inch) diameter bolt that
is 12 to 70 cm (4.5 to 27.5 inches) in length
• A 1.6 cm (5/8 inch) wrench
• A wire stripping tool
• A fiberglass or plastic cable puller tool
• A standard Phillips
®
screwdriver, Point Size 2
In addition to the tools listed above, you need an ECN Pole Mount Kit, which
includes the following components:
• Pole Mounting Bracket
• Support bolt: 12 to 70 cm (4.5 to 27.5 inches) in length (depends on the
pole class and the planned installation height for the ECN), 1.6 cm (5/8
inch) in diameter
• Two 1.6 cm (5/8 inch) washers
• One 1.6 cm (5/8 inch) square-head nut
• Input power cable accessory:
o The input power cable accessory is available in three lengths: 3
m, 9 m, and 12 m (10 ft, 30 ft, and 40 ft).
o The cable type conforms to the specifications for 2.05 mm (12
AWG) stranded copper conductors. Two conductors are covered
with black UV jacket insulation (600 V rating), and one with
white UV jacket insulation (600 V rating).
o The end of the cable that connects to the ECN input power
connector is fitted. The other end of the cable is not fitted.
