ABB APECB 170 Cable Terminations

This cable termination consists of an insulator installed on a box body made of aluminium castings. The box body consists partly of insulating material, which provides an insulated installation. The base part is to be installed on a bracket.

The electrical stress control component is a pre-molded rubber stress cone.

The insulator has sheds of short-long type and is filled with synthetic insulating oil. The composite insulator design includes grey silicone rubber sheds and a fibreglass reinforced epoxy resin hollow core.

It is light-weight and less sensitive for outer damages. The porcelain insulators are available in brown on request. A bolt clamp in the top fitting is used to connect the conductor to the top bolt. Top bolt and bolt clamp are included in the kit.

ABB APECB 170 Cable Terminations are used for installations in which the termination is to be used as a fixed connection point and meets the requirements of:

  • IEC 60840, < 170 kV
  • IEC 62067, 245–420 kV
  • IEEE 48

With the technical, commercial and engineering support of ABB Power Products divisions, T&D can deliver Fuses, Transformers, Surge Arresters, Vacuum Contactors and Capacitors for the protection and distribution of medium voltage and high voltage electricity and cable systems.
