“Energy connectivity with reliability & constancy, for everyone and everywhere.”

We believe in energy connectivity with reliability & constancy, for everyone and everywhere. Our aim is to make innovative Energy connectivity solutions available to everyone at the time it matters.

Worldwide, Heat Shrink Outdoor Termination ( Heat Shrink Terminations ) is widely used to Joint and Terminate MV electric cables. The technology deploys Heat Shrink tubings and moulded shapes.

Description

Heat Shrink Tubings

Heat Shrink Outdoor Termination Kit uses speciality polymers, extruded into tubings and moulded into various shapes for providing a range taking, long lasting, easy to install technique for Jointing and Terminating MV solid dielectric and paper insulated cables.

The formulation uses polyolefins mixed with various chemicals to make it suitable for use over cables. The following process is followed:

Moulded Shapes

Generally, the moulded shapes are designed to insulate, provide environmental seals, anti- tracking surfaces and creepage extensions. These are normally injection moulded and expanded using SPM’s and special mandrels / fixtures.

Conductor Connection

The conductors used for cables are generally aluminium or copper. For joining / terminating these conductors the following technologies are used for underground cables:

Crimping

Thermal Welding

Mechanical Connectors

Insulation Piercing Device (LV)

PCA Cable Joints are designed to accommodate crimp and mechanical connectors.

Designs

Standard kit designs are based on cables conforming to IEC / IS standards. PCA excels in designs of customised cable accessories as per the application and need of its customers.

Key variables necessitating customisation :

Cable dielectric

Cable construction and dimensions

Electric stressSystem fault levels

Earthing parameters Application

10 Tips For Proper Installation Of Screened Separable Connectors

Oct 11, 2020  pctechman  T Shaped Screened Separable Connector  0 Comments

Ensure semi-con cutback dimensions are accurate and there are no cuts on the insulation.

Do not nick or cut the shield, insulation or conductor when preparing the cable. This can lead to over-heating and dielectric failure.

Brush conductors before inserting them into the connector to remove any oxide layers.

Do not remove the grease from connectors. It is there to help break up the oxide film and improve current transfer.

Use the correct tool and die and make the recommended number of crimps when installing the compression connector. Rotate successive indents 90 or 180 to prevent distortion.

Use supplied grease only; other lubricants may separate during thermal cycling and leave stuck elbows.

Do not use silicon oil on separable connectors. Oil is for permanent installations such as splices and live-front terminators.

Ensure air release while installing back insulator.

Ensure no dust particles exist on the connector assembly or on cable insulation surface during installation.

Follow the installation guide, recommended work practices and be safe.
