T&D are UK Distributors for Nexans Power Accessories – this includes WINDLINK a range of medium and high voltage accessories including cable joints, terminations and connectors suitable for wind turbines on offshore and onshore wind energy projects.
Nexans Power Accessories provide a complete range of accessories suitable for energy distribution networks such as pre-moulded EPDM rubber connectors and silicone terminations for cables, epoxy bushings for transformers and switchgear, a wide range of cold and heat shrinkable terminations and joints up to 66kV as well as customised, rated jumper cables for medium voltage applications.
Low Voltage
With the Nexans & Euromold product portfolio of Cable Accessories is a whole range of products for low voltage networks: terminations, straight and branch joints, gel or resin filled, heat or cold shrink joints.
Connection technology
Nexans manufactures ferrules and cable lugs to connect low, medium and high voltage power lines and cables. A wide range of cable crimping joints and lugs, mechanical connectors and cable lugs with shear-off-head bolts for connecting different conductor cross-sections of aluminium and copper cables is available.
Cable Terminations
Terminations are used to connect polymeric insulated cables to MV-HV electrical equipment and for the outdoor terminating onto overhead lines or busbars. Indoor terminations are designed for use in controlled environmental conditions and subject to light condensation.
Outdoor cable terminations are designed for prolonged exposure to sunshine and other weather conditions.
Cable Joints
Straight joints are designed for jointing screened polymeric cables to be laid in air or directly buried – these cable joints are fully screened and fully submersible.
Junction solutions
For offshore wind power parks, the Offshore Junction Cabinets and the Offshore Junction Frames are used as a connecting point for internal tower cables to external subsea power and array cables. Nexans OJC and OJF product lines are part of our dedicated WINDLINK offer.
Separable connectors
Separable connectors are designed to connect polymeric insulated cables to equipment such as 11kV/33kV transformers or switchgear. These cable connection products are suitable for indoor and outdoor use with thick conductive EPDM jacket to provide a total “safe to touch” screen which ensures safety for personnel.
Cable jumpers
Cable jumpers are prefabricated lengths of cable on which a separable connector or a cable termination is installed at each end.
Surge arresters
Surge arresters are designed to protect medium voltage components, including transformers, equipment, cable and accessories from high voltage surges caused by lightning and switching up to 66kV.
Equipment bushing
Equipment bushings are epoxy insulated parts for use in oil or gas insulated equipment, such as transformers, switchgear and capacitors up to 66kV.
High Voltage Cable Accessories up to 66/72.5kV
Slip-on cable accessories for 66kV/72.5kV wind applications: separable connectors to connect cable to switchgear or transformers, slip-on terminations to connect cable to equipment and for outdoor termination of cables onto overhead lines or busbars, slip-on joints with mechanical connectors for jointing cables inside the wind park.
