MV Heat-Shrinkable Joints 36JTS1 W (CS) – 42JTS1 W (CS)

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

Up to Umax 42 kV 

APPLICATION 

36-42JTS1 W 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 

36-42JTS is the NEW high performance, compact and easy to install joint. 

Double bodies with all the electrical functions integrated! 

The Nexans 36-42JTS is an integrated coextruded “stress control field + insulating” nested in a coextruded “insulating + conductive” tube, which can withstand high voltage applications up to 42kV. 

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 by a tinned copper stocking with constant force roll springs in case of copper/wire tape screen (CS type) or with a  standard tinned copper tape plus an earthing ferrule in case of only copper wire screen (W type). 

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

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

– 36JTS type tested with BIL at 200 kV
