MV Heat-Shrinkable Joints 17JTS3 CW – 24JTS3 CW

NEXANS HEAT-SHRINKABLE MV STRAIGHT JOINTS FOR UNARMOURED THREE CORE POLYMERIC CABLES WITH COPPER WIRE OR COPPER TAPE SCREEN 

Up to Umax 24 kV 

APPLICATION 

17-24JTS3 CW heat-shrinkable straight joints are designed for unarmoured, plastic insulated cables with Cu wire or Cu tape screen, to accommodate either crimped or mechanical connectors. 

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND DESIGN 

17-24JTS is the NEW high performance, compact and easy to install joint. 

A single body with all the electrical functions integrated! 

The Nexans “TRIPLE GT125” is an integrated stress control field, insulating and conductive tube, which can withstand high voltage applications up to 24kV. 

A double layer pad with conductive rubber inside and HK orange mastic outside ensure a Faraday cage and smooth the effect of the electrical field and of the voltage gradient in the connector area. 

The electrical continuity of the screen is ensured with a standard metallic tape plus earthing ferrules (CW type) while for tape screen an additional earthing braid is provided (AW type). 

The outer sheath is restored with heavy/medium wall adhesive lined tubing. 

Vapor barrier protection available upon request (VS). 

MC types are supplied with “Nexans GPH” mechanical connectors. 

– 17JTS type tested with BIL at 95 kV, PD at 2Uo (≤ 10 pC) 

– 24JTS type tested with BIL at 150 kV, PD at 2Uo (≤ 10 pC)
