TRANSITION JOINT: Transition cable joints are designed to joint multicore Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) to paper (PILC) insulated, steel wire armoured (SWA) cables, 600/1000v and 3.3kV - 3M Scotchcast resin LA range transition cable joints with TX supplementary paper cable transition kits are suitable for both XLPE to paper and paper to paper
3M low voltage transition cable joints (XLPE to PILC) feature the Advanced Resin Delivery System for cable jointer safety with totally enclosed mixing and pouring - preventing cable jointer contact with hazardous jointing resins and reducing spillage.
Transition cable joints are supplied with range taking mechanical shearbolt connectors for jointing imperial to metric cables and dissimilar copper to aluminium conductors - hydrocarbon resistant power cable joint kits are also available to transition joint EEMUA 133 XLPE lead sheathed to PILC cables for oil, gas and petrochemical sites.
Ferul is an cylindrical instrument with a separation in the middle of it. On one side the XLPE cable is inserted and on the other side the PLC cable.
The stick used to seal the box enclosing the cable joint by gas welding it is called plumbing D-metal.
XLPE: Cross-linked polyethylene, commonly abbreviated PEX or XLPE, is a form of polyethylene with cross-links. It is formed into tubing, and is used predominantly in building services pipework systems, hydronic radiant heating systems, domestic water piping and insulation for high tension (high voltage) electrical cablesPEX tubing ranges in size from imperial sizes of 1/4-inch to 4-inch, but 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, and 1-inch are by far the most widely used.[1] In metric PEX is normally available in 16 mm, 20 mm, 25mm, 32 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm and 63 mm sizes.
PAPER INSULATED CABLE: PLC (paper insulated cable) are usually used nowadays for insulation of high tension cables. The cross section area of Paper Insulated Cables
