Heat Shrinkable Joints

“The term Heat Shrinkable is applied to extruded or moulded polymeric materials, which are cross linked either by irradiation, or by chemical means, such that when their temperature is raised beyond the normal base polymer crystalline melting point, they do not melt but merely become rubbery. In this state, if the material is then mechanically expanded and held in this position until the temperature falls below the crystalline melting point. It remains in the expanded state. Subsequent heating in an unconstraint state will then result in the material recovering or shrinking to its original extruded or moulded size and shape” - The Electricity Association.

To maintain the continuity of Cable specially for long length, the cable jointing systems came into existence. The power cable jointing systems can be Straight Through for XLPE to XLPE or PILC to PILC Cable and can be Transition Cable Joint type for connection of XLPE to PILC Cable. The voltage grade is from 1.1 KV onwards. The cable jointing system works properly in underground cable even with water stagnation in the ground.
There are wide range of cable jointing systems available today, which can be classified by the way they are applied such as taped type, pre-moulded / push-on / slip-on type, cold application type and heat shrinkable type. The selection criterion for an appropriate type of cable jointing system by the user should be dependent on the site conditions, operating parameters, voltage applications and cable types.

TERMINATIONS

For connection of Cable to Switchgear Terminal, Transformer Terminal, Poles etc. Termination kits are required. The Heat Shrinkable Termination kits can be Indoor or Outdoor based on actual application. It can also be single core or 3 core / 3.5 core based on cable configuration. Termination can be for XLPE & PILC Cable and can be used in extreme hazardous atmosphere conditions.

VENUS offers a comprehensive range of medium and high voltage cable terminations aimed at the local and export markets. The terminations cater for all cable types including PILC and XLPE for both indoor and outdoor applications in size ranges from 16 upto 1000sq mm up to 33KV.

These terminations have been independently tested to the requirements of VDE 0278, CENELEC HD629.1 S1 and IEC 60502 Parts1-4.

The range of medium voltage cable termination kits are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use on PILC or XLPE cables from 6KV up to 33kV.

The terminations are supplied in sets of three and are complete with solderless earth kits.
These terminations are suitable for use on XLPE/ Aerial Bundle Conductors (ABC) and in all environment including high contamination. All of the terminations have been independently tested and exceed the requirements of CENELEC HD629.1 S1
