3M™ Cold Shrink QS-III Splice Kit 5535A, Longitudinally Corrugated Shield, 35 kV, 1/case
- 3M ID 7000006187
Details
Highlights
- Inline splice for joining tape shield, wire shield, UniShield® or longitudinally corrugated shielded power cables
- Special electrode design of the kit reduces the electrical stress at a critical cable/splice interface
- Designed for inline splicing, feeder and distribution circuits, size transition splicing, direct burial installations and submerged locations
- Silicon rubber-splice body provides good high and low temperature performance, and the EPDM rubber jacket offers physical protection
- Rated for 35 kV cables
- High-voltage, production-tested for partial discharge and AC ensure reliability
3M™ Cold Shrink QS-III Inline Shielded Cable Splice Kits 5535A and 5536A Series are inline splices for joining 35 kV tape shield, wire shield, UniShield® or longitudinally corrugated (LC) shielded power cables. The cold shrink splice body is a one-piece molded design made of specially formulated silicone rubbers, while the jacketing is made of EPDM rubber for its special physical properties.
Each splice is high-voltage production tested to ensure reliability. The splices can be used with standard copper (Cu) or aluminum (Al/Cu) inline compression (crimp type) connectors, and can be used for size transitions within the listed kit size range. They are designed to exceed minimum industry test standards, and have a BIL rating of 250 kV (equal to a 46 kV voltage class). The 3M™ Cold Shrink QS-III Splices 5535A and 5536A meet or exceed the 35 kV Voltage Class rating requirements of IEEE 404. Kits can be ordered with connectors packed in the kit, or the kit and connector can be ordered as separate items. Each kit makes one splice. Note: Cable sizes shown below are for standard insulation thickness. Final determining factor is cable insulation O.D.
