Heat Shrink Cable Joints to suit Paper Insulated Lead Covered Cables, 600/1000v-3.3kV

Heat Shrink Cable Joints - BS6480, EEMUA 133
Paper & Polymeric Lead Sheathed Cable Joints

Paper or polymeric (PILC or XLPE) lead sheathed cables are specified for power distribution in the oil, gas, petroleum and chemical industries where underground cables are exposed to waterlogging and corrosive liquids and vapours - cable construction including lead sheath cover protects against penetration and degradation of electric cable insulation.

Heat shrink cable joints for Paper Insulated Lead Covered (PILC) cables include heat shrink breakout boots, core tubes and lead sheath earthing kits for 2, 3 and 4 core PILC /SWA power cables to BS6480.

BS6480 Standard is for impregnated paper insulated lead or lead alloy sheathed cables up to and including 3.3kV.

EEMUA 133 Standard is for underground armoured cables protected against solvent penetration and corrosive attack.

Heat shrink PILC cable joints suit 25sqmm, 35sqmm, 50sqmm, 70sqmm, 95sqmm, 120sqmm, 150sqmm, 185sqmm, 240sqmm and 300sqmm stranded copper conductor, steel wire armoured, 600/1000v and 3.3kV cables.

Heat shrink jointing kits are also available for XLPE insulated lead sheathed cables for petrochemical site installations - this covers the cable jointing of EEMUA 133 type cables.

SPS heat shrink cable joints are suitable for underground, vertical and cable tray jointing of PILC power cables providing the cable jointer with these benefits :

· No resin to mix or curing delays - no hazardous class jointing resins
· Immediate energisation and backfill capability of heat shrink cable joints
· Suitable for ducting, vertical and overhead cable jointing
· Light and compact heat shrink cable joints for space and weight savings
