ABSTRACT:
A method includes blasting the interior surfaces of the fitting to stator bar strand joint with CO2pellets to remove loose copper oxide which otherwise would interfere with proper sealing between an epoxy and the copper surfaces of the joint. After cleaning the surfaces and applying air under pressure to remove particulate material, epoxy is applied to the brazed joints followed by an evacuation of the fitting to strand joint. Subsequent release of the vacuum ensures that the epoxy fills in all crevices or cracks at the joint surfaces and minimizes or eliminates any tendency of the epoxy to delaminate.
