G&W’s
EPOX cable transition modules provide an efficient
method
of connecting extruded dielectric cable using separable
connectors
to oil or gas filled paper insulated lead cable (PILC)
for
systems rated through 35kV. Various models permit either
deadend
or feedthrough of the PILC cable. Modules can
accommodate
both 200A or 600A bushing interfaces which
conform
to ANSI/IEEE 386 standards.
| Features:

Application
Flexibility – Modules are rated for submersible
vault or direct buried applications. A positive
oil stop prevents migration of oil or gas from the PILC
to extruded cable. Mounting brackets and complete
splice kits are available. |
|
Rugged
construction using EPOX technology – G&W's
EPOX quality process uses time-proven epoxy resin to
assure a void-free, extremely durable system impervious
to environmental contamination. The epoxy system
is UL listed and provides excellent mechanical and electrical
properties, excellent fracture toughness, and outstanding
thermal endurance.
For
15/25kV modules, the system ground shield is accomplished
through the stress cone on the PILC cable to the permanently
bonded, external semi-conducting coating of the module
housing providing a fully shielded system.
For
35kV modules, an internal copper band around each interface
point is carried through the module housing to the external
semi-conducting coating providing a fully shielded system. |

Tested
Reliability – G&W transition modules
are designed and tested to applicable sections of IEEE
386, IEEE 592 and ANSI C119.4 standards. Production
tests include X-ray, corona, withstand and pressure
tests. |
