Raychem TFTI/TFTO Push-on elastomeric medium voltage terminations for indoor and outdoor applications for single core polymeric cables up to 42 kV

Product range The product line is designed for single core plastic cables up to 42 kV cables. This coverage is completed with a minimum number of designs. Pre-expanded versions are available. The products are fully tested to CENELEC specification HD 629 and to IEEE Std. 48-1996 which encompasses international standards such as IEC, British Standard (BS) and VDE. For cable box applications TFT can be combined with either Raychem bushing boot (RCAB) or Raychem insulated connection system (RICS) to fit most types of switchgear currently available in todays market place. For pole top applications we can supply TFT along with polymeric insulators (EPBI), Polygarde surge arresters and most fittings required for installation. Under regular circumstances, all of the TFT components have full traceability back to the origin of manufacture and raw materials. The TFT includes: a non-tracking, silicone-based elastomeric body a stress control patch self amalgamating sealant tape These components combine to provide the same important functions as heat-shrink products: electrical performance, stress control, and moisture sealing. Because of the inherent physical property differences between semi-crystalline and rubbery polymers, the TFT stress control and sealant materials are tailored to achieve optimum performance with an elastomeric system.

Kit content Each TFT product will generally consist of the termination body unexpanded or expanded, a stress control patch, sealant tapes, silicone grease, a small PE bag as assembly tool and installation instructions. For special applications contact your local sales representative. The right kit for your cable range can be selected with the help of the selection table. Installation Each kit contains an easy to follow installation instruction with excellent visual displays of the installation steps. Installation is both fast and simple.

Raychem TFTI/TFTO Pre-expanded elastomeric medium voltage terminations for indoor and outdoor applications for single core polymeric cables up to 42 kV

Benefits Compact design Few components Simple and fast to install Re-positioning after installation possible Superior application ranges Designed for both indoor and outdoor use in all climate conditions, the TFT range covers applications on single core plastic cables up to 42 kV. The TFT has been developed to complement the Raychem termination product line. TFT includes an elastomeric body material in contrast to the semi-crystalline polymeric body of the heat-shrink terminations. Both types of bodies consist of crosslinked polymer networks and both types of terminations are easy to install over a range of cable sizes.

The TFT includes: a non-tracking, silicone-based, pre-expanded elastomeric body a stress control patch self amalgamating sealant tape These components combine to provide the same important functions as heat-shrink products: electrical performance, stress control, and moisture sealing. Because of the inherent physical property differences between semi-crystalline and rubbery polymers, the TFT stress control and sealant materials are tailored to achieve optimum perfor-mance with an elastomeric system.

General CSJA joints offer a reliable, fast and easyto-install jointing system to assure and maintain high network reliability. All key components are pre-expanded on one holdout system, allowing a very short parking length during cable preparation. A silicone rubber joint body with integrated geometrical stress cones and Faraday cage provides excellent electrical stress control. CSJA joints are designed to cover a wide range of applications and to accommodate the variety of cable and conductor types in the networks. Range-taking mechanical connectors ensuring reliable installation and service are supplied with the kit. 1 Mechanical shear bolt connectors CSJA joints are provided with Tyco Electronics BSM mechanical connectors fitted with shear head bolts to ensure a reliable connection for different conductor materials, shapes and types used in todays network. The pre-set shear torque of the bolts ensures that the correct contact pressure is always achieved. The specially designed contact surface on the inside of the connector breaks up any oxide layer and ensures reliable service over the entire life of the joint.

Different sizes of mechanical connectors with wide application ranges are available. The connectors have been tested in accordance with IEC-61238-1 class A. For the installation of mechanical connectors using shear-head bolts a cordless impact wrench can be supplied (IT-1000-023). 2 Pre-expanded silicone joint body The silicone rubber joint body is delivered in a pre-expanded condition on a spiral holdout system. Silicone materials with excellent mechanical properties allow high expansion forces and therefore guarantee a wide application range. Integrated stress control mechanism and conductive outer layer provide exceptional electrical performance. The joint body can be easily removed from the spiral holdout with low release forces, particularly designed for joint applications.

3 Electrical stress control Electrical stress control is fully integrated in the silicone joint body by well defined conductive areas. Conductive cones with an exactly defined geometrical design over the screen cut area provide excellent electrical stress control. The electrical stress control of the connector area is made with an integrated conductive screen performing as a Faraday cage. The coverage of voids and edges at the connection area with void fillers is not necessary.

4 Shield continuity The integrated pre-expanded copper mesh is connected to the cable screens by constant force roll springs. This connection method reliably operates during loadcycling and thermal short circuits of the conductors on all cable types regardless of whether the oversheath is PVC or PE. It provides a smooth profile which is resistant to mechanical impacts. The solderless earth connection has more than 25 years service experience in Tyco Electronics Raychem joint systems used worldwide.

5 Outer sealing and protection The CSJA joint has an integrated outer protection system which is already expanded onto the joint body and requires no additional parking distance. The EPDM sleeve combined with a high performance sealant forms a reliable moisture seal and corrosion protection. It is easy to install by just rolling out the flipped back rejacketing.
