Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / Cable joints
English term or phrase: Shape or train
Shape or train cable to its termination point and cut off any excess cable. Prepare the cable to the dimensions shown in tables 1 and 2.

Está dentro de las instrucciones para preparar los cables para un empalme. Me gustaría alguna palabra exacta que defina esta acción, me imagino, presentar/llevar/estirar/ ???
Muchas gracias

Explanation:

train en otros contextos es guiar, tutorar (p. ej. en jardinería), creo que iría un poco por ahí. De forma general y abarcando las dos palabras creo que se podría decir: tienda el cable hasta el punto final...
Espero que ayude,

... haga el cableado hasta el punto final... podría ser otra opción que abarque shape y train
