Busbar Heat Shrink Tubing for Switchgear 11kV 33kV

SPS Medium Voltage Busbar Tube

SPS BMT100/40 High Voltage HV Busbar Heat Shrink Tubing

 

T&D supply global switchgear manufacturers and contractors involved in the installation, refurbishment and maintenance of medium-high voltage switchgear, 11kV 33kV.

Shrink Polymer Systems BMT and BTT heat shrink busbar insulation tubings provide flashover protection against accidental bridging of straight or angled, rectangular and round HV busbars, 11kV-33kV.

BMT and BTT busbar tubes substantially improves clearance dimensions within installations and are highly flexible for use on straight or angled bars. Also vailable on spools for reduced waste.

SPS busbar tubings are suitable for enclosed and exposed bus work and for high voltage connections in switchgear line ups and substations. High voltage busbar heat shrink tubes also enable clearance reduction within high voltage electrical insulation applications, 11kV-33kV.

SPS BMT are red high voltage, thick walled, heat shrinkable tubes installed onto HV busbars to provide insulation at 6.6kV, 11kV, 15kV, 17.5kV, 24kV and 33kV. The high voltage insulation value of both medium wall (BMT) and thick wall (BTT) busbar heat shrink tubing allows substantial reductions in Phase-Phase and Phase-Earth clearances compared with air-insulated HV systems.

HV High Voltage Heat Shrink Busbar Tubing Applications

• Rectangular, square and round busbars
• Inline bolted connections of rectangular bus bars
• Copper or aluminum bus bars
• Metal-clad high voltage switchgear
• Metal-enclosed bus bar
• Substation switchgear
