Entrance Terminal IPT Location
and Mounting
2.1 Locate the terminal according to your company’s
standard operating procedure. Consider the
following points:
a) Locate the terminal inside/outside the
building/room as close as possible to the
MGN or ground wire source.
b) Locate the terminal inside/outside the
building/room as close as possible to the
cable entrance.
c) Locate the terminal on a firm mounting
surface where it will be accessible to all
technicians at all times.
d) Locate the terminal where it can be reached
without a ladder.
e) Avoid locating the terminal where it projects
out in a hazardous manner.

f) Avoid locating the terminal where it may
come in contact with chemicals, liquids or
vapor as it may cause damage to the plastic
components.
g) Place covered, solid #6 AWG wire from the
external ground bar to the approved ground
source and torque to 40 in.-lbs. (4.52 N•m).
Note: Failure to properly bond and ground the terminal
per N.E.C. or local equivalent codes may render
the protector arrestors useless.
2.2 Remove the outer door and open the splicing
chamber by removing the chamber cover.
2.3 In the upper right corner and lower right corner,
remove the 2 screws holding the front panel to
the enclosure. Remove the front panel assembly
and set aside.
2.4 Mount the terminal in the desired location utilizing
the keyholes on the back of the enclosure.
2.5 Route connector harness tails and ground
strap through the opening between the main
chamber and the splice chamber. Replace
the front panel and re-attach with the screws
