Capnut terminations are field assembled
units which offer complete system flexibility and over 60
years of field proven reliability. Interchangeable aerial
lugs, hoodnut connector assemblies, porcelains, bodies and
cable entrance fittings enable these terminations to accept
any construction of extruded dielectric, paper insulated or
armored cable on distribution systems up to 46kV. Various
styles of single and three conductor units are available.
Capnut terminations are designed and tested in accordance
with IEEE-48, 1975 standards for Class 1 terminations.
Application
Capnut terminations are generally used where insulated cables
are connected to generators, switchgear, transformers, overhead
lines or sectionalizing equipment. Single conductor units
are available in ratings of 15, 25, 34.5 and 46kV and will
accept conductors within the range of 1/0 to 2000 kcmil. Three
conductor units are rated 15, 25 and 34.5kV for conductor
sizes through 1000 kcmil. All units are available for either
bracket of flange mounting.

| Features: |
 |
Maximum
external insulation — High grade, wet process
porcelain provides excellent mechanical strength and
electrical characteristics. Porcelains are designed
with thick wall construction and maintain safe creepage
and strike distances. Various styles of petticoated
or corrugated type porcelains are available for either
indoor, outdoor, inverted or equipment mounted applications.

 |
Reliable
stress control — Stress relief cone kits
consisting of insulating tapes and shielding braid are
available depending upon cable construction. Various
compounds or oils are available as an internal insulating
medium for the terminators depending upon the application.
|
 |
Versatility
— Interchangeable aerial lugs, hoodnut connector
assemblies, porcelains, bodies and cable entrance fittings
provide maximum system flexibility. Terminations are
available for any size and type of paper insulated,
extruded dielectric and armored cable rated up to 46kV.

Spreader Heads
Various styles of spreader heads are available for use with
single conductor terminations when a greater phase-to-phase
aerial spacing is required for 3/C cable applications.
