âž¡ Paper Cables (eg PILC) + Polymeric Cables (eg XLPE) = Transition Cable Joint
High Voltage Cable Preparation
Essential to the safe and reliable performance of all MV HV Joints & Terminations is the standard of cable preparation achieved by the Jointer. Pictured here is an example of excellent workmanship where the XLPE and PILC cables are stripped and prepared ready for transition jointing in the cable trench.

Ormazabal are leading manufacturers of Medium Voltage Switchgear & Electrical Distribution Products – this includes:
The following post shows the range of Euromold Connectors which are suitable for and manufacturer approved for use with Ormazabal medium/high voltage equipment bushings according to IEC 50181. BS EN 50181:2010 is the industry standard for plug-in type bushings above 1kV up to 52kV and from 250A to 2,50kA for MV-HV switchgear and transformers.
EN 50181 IEC Bushing Types
Ormazabal recommends the use of Euromold connectors for the termination of MV-HV cables as they have been tested in the Ormazabal CGMCOSMOS system cubicles.
CGMCOSMOS is part of the Ormazabal Medium Voltage Switchgear Secondary Distribution range – a fully gas-insulated modular and compact (RMU) system up to 24kV.
3 different types of EN 50181 (IEC) bushing types that are manufactured in epoxy resin and conform to the dielectric and partial tests.
• Plug-in Bushing up to 250 A
• Plug-in Bushing up to 400 A
• Screw-in Bushing up to 630 A
MV-HV bushings are located in the cable compartment or can also be placed on the side of the cubicles for direct supply to the main busbar via plug-in or screw-in connectors rated current greater than 400A or short-circuit current equal to or higher than 16kA.
250AÂ plug-in cable connectors (straight or elbow type for rear exit of cable) in outputs to transformer (cable compartment) for fuse protection functions and shielded connectors for circuit-breaker protection functions.
