CGB, CGD and CGE Series Connectors
Installation & Maintenance Information
APPLICATION
Eaton's Crouse-Hinds series CGB, CGD and CGE cord and cable fittings are listed for use
with flexible cord and TC, TC-ER, TC-ER-HL, ITC, ITC-ER, ITC-HL, PLTC and PLTC-ER cables
of specific sizes to provide an adequate cord or cable entrance bushing and strain relief
for internal electrical connections when assembled to standard threaded openings or
standard knockout openings. They are suitable for use in wet locations. They have not been
investigated for use in hazardous locations.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INSTALLATION
1.
Install body securely in conduit hub or fasten in knockout with locknut.
2.
Slide gland nut, gland washer and bushing over cable, in that order.
3.
Install cable through the body far enough to allow wire connections (see Figure 1). If
cable does not pass through the body, remove sufficient outer covering of cable to
allow conductors to pass through the connector body.
4.
Install bushing into body, slide gland washer against bushing and thread gland nut
onto body. Tighten gland nut to cause bushing to grip cable firmly so liquidtight seal
is formed.
