Cable Terminations
Raychem cable terminations using heat shrink technology can operate under severe environmental conditions for connecting and terminating MV HV cables in both indoor and outdoor applications.
Polymeric insulated cables of various designs and cross sections can be adopted with respect to shielding and metal sheath. Composite housings with different creepage lengths up to 50 mm/kV are available for the most common and also extreme pollution levels according to IEC 60071-1 and IEC 60071-2.
Brugg cable stripping tools were used by the cable jointer to strip tand prepare the single core high voltage 2500sqmm XLPE insulated cables.
High voltage products help enhance the safety, reliability and efficiency of power networks while minimising environmental impact in applications such as substations, power transmission, enabling smart grid and enhancing eco-efficiency.
Operating and maintaining high voltage systems requires experienced operatives with specialist skills.
