ANSI Connectors | Medium Voltage Power Cable Connectors for Transformers & Switchgear Bushings from Cooper Power Systems
Cooper Power Systems Separable Connectors (ANSI) & Bushings are rated for 15kV, 25kV and 35kV medium voltage power systems in accordance with the following ratings.
What is ANSI?
The American National Standards Institute is a private non-profit organization that oversees the development of voluntary consensus standards for products, services, processes, systems, and personnel in the United States.
ANSI Separable Connectors are waterproof cable connectors that can be easily installed – these cable accessories use imported high quality EPDM rubber for reliable field performance and are widely used in pad-mounted switchgears and pad-mounted transformers on MV Power Systems.Â

Connectors
Eaton’s Cooper Power Systems 200 A and 600 A connector products are designed for applications on XLPE, EPR or other solid dielectric insulated underground electrical cables. In order to maintain a reliable termination, the cable accessories must be sized correctly with the cable conductor size and cable insulation diameter.
The cable conductor size is used to determine the compression connector used. Proper sizing is important to ensure reliable current transfer from the underground cable conductor to the elbow connector.
Conductor diameters are dependent on the conductor size in AWG or kcmil, and conductor type (stranded, compressed, compact or solid). The cable insulation diameter (the diameter over the insulation) is critical because it is important to maintain a tightly sealed fit between the cable insulation and the elbow housing at the cable entrance. As the insulation thickness changes, so must the range of the cable accessory. Cable insulation diameter can be determined from the cable manufacturer’s specification, or by referring to pages 8 (for cable made to the AEIC Standard including the ± 0.030 inch tolerance) or 9 (for cable made to the ICEA Standard) for minimum and maximum diameters.
