UTILITIES IEC SEPARABLE CONNECTORS IEC SEPARABLE CONNECTORS / 42 KV / 1250 A Chardon Front T-Body / Coupling (Rear) T-Body connectors are fully screened and fully submersible, products are used to terminate polymeric cable to dead front apparatus such as transformers, switchgear, and other equipment. They can be use at 36kV and 42 kV. Products can be used for indoor or outdoor applications, and are able to be used for all polymeric cable types ( XLPE, ETP, etc.) with copper or aluminum conductors. The design is especially suited for the harsh off-shore wind farm environment where long runs and large cable are needed.
