Raychem screened, separable connection system RSTI-Large
for large cross sections 1250 A up to 42 kV
Features
The insulation of the connector is
made of a highly modified silicone
rubber characterised by high tracking
resistance, elongation at break and
non-flammability.
A thin walled screen is permanently
bonded onto the insulation and pro
tects the connection system against
accidental contact.
The screened connector need not be
removed for over sheath testing.
The screened cable connector
exceeds CENELEC HD 629.1 S2
requirements, which includes BS;
VDE and other international
specifications.
Design fits 630 A and 1250 A bush
ings (Interface C1 and C2) as spec
ified by EN 50180 and EN 50181.
The compact design supports the
use of double T connections inside
standard terminal boxes.
The wide application range covers
cable cross sections from 400 to
800 mm2.
Conductor connection with
mechanical lugs.
Easily accessible rear plug with
capacitive test point.
Complete kit including lugs facilitates
installation and storage.
Raychem RSTI screened separable
connectors are designed to connect
single- and three-core polymeric cables
to medium-voltage gas insulated
switchgear and other equipment using
CENELEC bushings Type C1=630 A and
C2=1250 A, specified up to 42 kV.
Made of a highly modified silicone
rubber and protected by a thin walled
outer conductive screen connected
to earth, Raychem RSTI connectors are
equally suited for indoor and outdoor
application.
Supporting a wide application range,
the design incorporates one body
and three stress cone adapters to
cover all cross-sections from 400 to
800 mm2 and all voltage classes from
12 to 42 kV. The overall and cut back
dimensions are designed to take up
minimum space in the terminal box.
Raychem RSTI connectors are equipped
with a capacitive test point for deter
mining whether the circuit is energised.
A conductive cap protects this test
point.
