Medium Voltage Cable Termination Lugs

The abb method of installing compression connectors on power cables is designed to provide a high degree of reliability in electrical wiring.

Medium voltage cable termination lugs.

Medium voltage cable accessories eaton s mission is to improve the quality of life and the environment through the use of power management technologies and services. 3m mechanical shearbolt lugs. Pfisterer sicon screw type bolted connectors are installed directly onto cable conductor ends lugs or to connect sections of jointed cable at medium high voltages typically used to connect cables at 11kv 33kv with voltage rating suitable also for hv up to 66kv 72kv. Medium high voltage cable preparation it is necessary to begin with a good cable end.

3m electrical lugs and connectors. The termination is made from pre stretched rubber wrapped around a core. Heat shrink cold shrink push on and slip over cable accessories enable the jointing terminating and connection of 11kv 33kv and 66kv 132kv cables to oil air or gas insulated. Network rail pads approved connectors.

All of our medium voltage terminations feature. No special tools required. When the core is removed the rubber provides a constant inward pressure on the cable forming a seal which expands and contracts with variations in temperature and load. Continuous and smooth shearing.

T d distribute the most extensive range of hv high voltage cable joints terminations connectors from manufacturers including 3m prysmian nexans euromold elastimold pfisterer connex and shrink polymer systems. This method allows electrical workers to make installations with little effort and at a considerable savings in time. The mv connectors use shearbolt technology to suit aluminium and copper conductors with sector shaped stranded or solid cores 600 1000v cables.

More than 3 million pre moulded cable joints cable terminations and cable connectors have already been installed by customers in electricity distribution networks all over the world. We provide sustainable solutions that help our customers effectively manage electrical hydraulic and mechanical power more safely more efficiently and more reliably. 3m offers mechanical and crimp electrical lugs and connectors for underground electrical cables to be used in medium voltage applications with splices terminations. All terminations meet or exceed ieee 48 requirements.

A key to good cable preparation is the use of sharp high quality tools. When the various layers are removed cuts should extend only partially. For this reason it is common practice to cut off a portion of cable after pulling to assure an undamaged end. All this combined with the screw technology that we use in our cable connectors and cable lugs results in a reliable system.
