3M
Kit Includes Everything Needed to Make Loadbreak Elbow Connection
London.The 200
AMP Industrial Loadbreak Elbow Kit is now available from the
3M Electrical Products Division. The complete kit includes
everything needed to make a loadbreak connection.
Rated to connect 5, 8 and 15kV shielded power
cables to ANSI/IEEE 386 loadbreak bushings, the 3M brand 5810
Series 200 AMP Industrial Loadbreak Elbow Kit is designed
for use with tape shield, wire shield, UniShield® and
jacketed concentric neutral cable types.
The elbow is a fully shielded, insulated plug-in
termination for connecting underground cable to transformers,
switchgear and junctions equipped with loadbreak bushings.
Molded from high-quality, peroxide-cured EPDM insulation,
each elbow features a coppertop connector, tin-plated copper
loadbreak probe with an ablative arc-follower tip, stainless
steel reinforced pulling-eye and a capacitive test point.
Available as accessories are the Insulated Protective
Cap and the Loadbreak Bushing Insert. The Insulated Protective
Cap electrically insulates and mechanically seals loadbreak
bushing interfaces and the Loadbreak Bushing Insert threads
into a universal bushing well to provide the same function
as an integral loadbreak bushing. Special tools are not required
to install these accessories.
