Im trying to think how you got to the point of having built a neuclear reactor without already having a working macerator to double your ore efficiency. Especially with the stupid amounts of copper you need to build them. You do it the same way you hook up a generator, or solar cell or bat box or any other piece of IC2 energy production and storage. Just in case you have gotten to this point without knowing how to do any of that ill take you through it from the beginning.

How much power does your reactor produce? If it's more than 128 eu/t you need to convert the high voltage down to low voltage using transformers. Start with HV cable from your reactor into an mv transformer, with will give you 128 eu/t packets which can be transferred using gold cable into an LV transformer. This then ramps the power down to 32 eu/t packets which you can connect to the macerator using copper cable.
