CONNECTOR ARRANGEMENT WITH PENETRATOR IN A SUBMERSIBLE ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLY

摘要

A connector arrangement in a submersible electrical assembly including an electric equipment or electrical power consumer housed in an enclosure filled with conductive fluid. Power is supplied to the power consumer in a connecting area defined through a dielectric containment located inside the enclosure, and to a penetrator comprising power cable termination components enclosed in a penetrator housing extending from a rear end to a forward end of the penetrator. The rear end is arranged to seal about a power cable receivable in the housing from the rear end. The forward end exposes a connector arranged for electrically connecting the power consumer to the penetrator. The penetrator housing in the forward end is extended beyond the connector through a housing section projecting into the power consumer enclosure and terminated in a forward end by an end wall. The end wall has a passage sealable about a power consumer conductor mateable with the connector of the penetrator in a connecting mode.
