RSES – RSSS 36KV 400A

Raychem screened, separable elbow connection system RSES 400 A for 24 kV and 36 kV

Features

• The insulation of the connector is made of a highly modified silicone rubber characterised by high tracking resistance, elongation at break and non-flammability.
• A thin-walled screen is permanently bonded onto the insulation and protects the connection system against accidental contact.
• The screened connector need not be removed for oversheath testing.
• The screened cable connector exceeds CENELEC HD 629.1 S2 requirements, which includes BS, VDE and other international specifications.
• Design fits 400 A bushings (interface “B”) as specified by EN 50180 and EN 50181.
• The wide application range covers cable cross-sections from 50 to 300 mm2.
• Conductor connection with mechanical lugs, designed to accept aluminium and copper conductors.
• Easily accessible capacitive test point.
• Few accessories required for system test.
• Complete kit including lugs facilitates installation and storage.

Raychem RSES screened, separable elbow connectors are designed to connect single- and three-core polymeric cables to medium-voltage gas-insu la ted switchgear and other equipment using CENELEC bushings Type “B” specified for 400 A up to 36 kV.

Made of a highly modified silicone rubber and protected by a thin-walled outer conductive screen connected to earth, RSES elbow connectors are equally suited for indoor and outdoor installation. Supporting a wide application range, the design incorporates one body and two stress cone adapters to cover all cross-sections from 50 to 300 mm2. The overall and cut-back dimensions are designed to take up minimum space in the terminal box. RSES elbow connectors are equipped with a capacitive test point for determining whether the circuit is energised. This test point is protected by a conductive cap.

After cable preparation and lubrication, the stress control adapter is simply slid into place, followed by the screened connector body. These two components can be installed under virtually any conditions.

A separable mounting system ensures easy installation of the connector onto the bushing.
All kits include high-performance multi-range mechanical lugs matching the design of the RSES elbow connector.
