Overview

Our Raychem ELBC-810 Dead Break Elbow Connectors are used to connect XLPE cables to electrical equipment (e.g. RMU, switchgear, transformer, etc.), using CENELEC bushing type “C”, specified up to 17.5 kV.  

Our ELBC Connectors are made up of a highly modified EPDM rubber and are fully screened and submersible, suitable for indoor and outdoor installations. For a wide range of applications, the design incorporates one body and five stress cones to cover cross-sections from 25 mm² up to 500 mm². The overall and cut-back dimensions are designed to take up minimum space in the terminal box. The elbow connectors are equipped with a capacitive test point for determining whether the circuit is energized. This test point is protected by a conductive cap. These connectors are compatible for use with both mechanical and compression lugs which can be ordered separately. Pre-engineered design of the mechanical lug optimizes contact resistance between the connector and conductor.

 

Installation is user-friendly, requiring only a standard socket spanner and no additional space. The separable connector is easily connected with the bushing and junction that comply with EN50180/50181 DIN47636. Accessories such as test rods, earth plugs, and front terminals are compatible for use with our range of RSTI and ELBC separable connectors.
