3M QT-III | Cold Shrink Terminations | Video Demonstration
Published 17 Jan 2022
High Voltage Cable Terminations
- Tight Cable Sealing – HV termination retains resiliency and pressure after prolonged aging and outdoor pollution exposure
- Flexible Cold Shrink – QT-III accommodates all power cable manufacturers bend radius tolerances and recommendations
- Reliability – high dry and wet insulation resistance for switchgear, transformer or outdoor pole termination
- Versatile – QT-III Cold Shrink terminations install quickly and accommodates a wide range of cable sizes
- Dependable – proven long-term reliability and safe operation at overload temperature on MV HV power system networks
- Time Efficient – reduced installation time for the Jointer compared to heat shrink, electrical taping or resins
- Ozone, Heat and UV Resistance – the physical characteristics of silicone rubber Cold Shrink provide excellent performance over the very wide temperature range of -150°F (-100°C) to 600°F (315°C)
Cold Shrink Reliability Record Low Failure Rates*: – 0.067% for Cold Shrink Cable Joints/Splices – 0.022% for Cold Shrink Terminations
*Data based upon U.S. failure data of U.S. manufactured 3M Cold Shrink Medium & High Voltage Cable Accessories between 2009 and 2012.
