Kristof Rottiers (Area Technical Customer Manager – Asia Pacific at Nexans Power Accessories) commented, “this type of cable termination installation is common in New Zealand. The Nexans AFN series of outdoor slip-on termination is the preferred technology due to its harsh climate and closeness to the coast line.”
Nexans AFN 10/AFN 20/AFN 30/AFN 36 outdoor slip-on cold applied cable terminations are tested to International Standard HD 629.1 S2 providing exceptional service and reliability in heavily polluted and condensation locations.

CABLE JOINTER TRAINING FOR MV HV CONNEX CONNECTORS
PFISTERER have announced the launch and opening of their Medium Voltage CONNEX Training Courses covering CONNEX Size 1 to 3-S-XL products up to 52kV – the training courses are being conducted from their new purpose built training facility in the UK.
Safety and reliability are essential factors in medium voltage power system applications placing particular demands on assembly and installation skills of the cable jointer.
It is therefore imperative that all medium / high voltage cable jointers who work with CONNEX products are trained and certified by PFISTERER.
You can contact Thorne & Derrick to arrange your PFISTERER training course today.
