11kV EPR Triplex Cable Joints Using Lovink Enertech Medium Voltage LoviSil Cable Joints

Published 13 May 2021

Lovink Enertech LoviSil cable joints are developed on the basis of fluid silicones, a technology that can boast 25 years proven field experience with an extremely low cable joint failure rate.Lovink

Due to the construction and characteristics of the silicone-based insulation material, the Lovink LoviSil medium voltage cable joint is particularly suitable for applications with both polymeric and paper-insulated cables – the ideal transition joint, but also the perfect universal straight through joint. 

Lovink LoviSil cable joints have been adopted by Western Power Distribution (WPD) due to their acknowledged low failure rate for the jointing of 11kV EPR cables.

The cable jointer utilises mechanical shearbolt connectors for fast and simplified jointing of conductors without resort to hydraulic crimping tools and die sets.

The white inner casing is a polyester material which is bolted together and then sealed around the outside lip with a poly type resin which is very important to get level. The connections inside the case are filled with LoviSil dielectric silicone fluid. The outer red casing is filled with ProtoSil polyurethane resin.

The cable jointed on this occasion was 11kV Triplex 185sqmm with EPR insulation and bonded screen (WPD Specification).
