torch.
a. Score and remove 3” of the outer jacket

and cut about 1 1/2” squarely off the end of the
heater, making sure the conductors are not in
contact with each other.

d. Apply heat to shrink the sleeve around the
heater. While the sleeve is still hot, squeeze the
open end of the sleeve with the needle nose pliers
and hold together until cool to seal the shrink sleeve
end. If end does not remain visibly sealed when
pliers are removed, repeat this sealing step. The
end must remain visibly sealed when the pliers are
removed.
e. Slide the braid over sealing shrink sleeve and
twist end of braid into a pigtail.
f. Slide the 3/4” x 4” long piece of shrink sleeve
over the braid so that 3/8” extends out past the end
of the pigtail.
