After installation: 1) Visual inspection, 2) Continuity test, 3) Insulation resistance (>100 M\u03a9), 4) Hi-pot test, 5) Water test (optional). Document results. Never deploy untested.<\/p>\n

### Step-by-Step<\/p>\n

**Step 1: Visual Inspection**
\n– Connector fully mated
\n– Coupling tightened
\n– No visible damage
\n– O-rings seated
\n– Cable strain relief secure<\/p>\n

**Step 2: Continuity Test**
\n– Pin-to-pin: <1 \u03a9\n- pin-to-housing: open circuit\n- cable continuity: <1 \u03a9 per conductor\n\n**step 3: insulation resistance**\n- pin-to-pin:>100 M\u03a9 at 500V DC
\n– Pin-to-housing: >100 M\u03a9
\n– Pin-to-shield: >100 M\u03a9<\/p>\n
