Cembre High Voltage Bi-Metallic Pin Connectors 11-33kV

Cembre High Voltage Bi-Metallic Pin Connectors
Copper Pin & Aluminium Barrel Pin Connectors

Cembre MTA-C bi-metallic pin or stalk connectors are made from aluminium of a purity equal to or greater than 99.5% - the aluminium crimp barrel is friction welded to the pin achieving an excellent connection between the copper pin and aluminium barrel.

Crimp barrels are capped and grease filled to avoid aluminium oxidation - suitable for 11kV-33kV electrical termination applications.

Compression Connectors for Connecting & Terminating HV Conductors
Compression (crimp) connectors are an established method of connecting and terminating high voltage cable conductors. To ensure a reliable connection or termination, the following should be observed.

*Both cable conductor and compression crimp should be cleaned down using cable cleaning wipes
*The size, shape and metal (copper or aluminium) must be correct for the cable conductor
*The correct crimp die set should be selected
*The cable conductor must be fully inserted into the crimp connector
*The correct compression or crimping sequence must be followed and the full compression pressure applied.

Failure to observe these precautions can result in a compression connector, lug or termination that fails in service.
