Installation Guide

4. Beginning over the installed electrical tape, twist the Itron cable armor onto the pit module
cable using a right-handed twist.
Important! You must twist—not wrap—the cable armor onto the pit module
cable. Wrapping the cable armor can cause the stainless steel jacket to warp. You
must begin twisting the cable armor over portion of the cable protected by the
electrical tape. If you do not begin to twist the cable armor over the protected
portion of the pit module cable, a cut cable could cause an pit module/register
communication failure.
5. Continue to twist the cable armor onto the pit module cable until the cable armor covers the
entire cable.
