Coupling sleeve for water-cooled power cable - joins cable to coupling block, by welding points and bores for conductors

摘要

A join sleeve for electrical cables that are water cooled consist -s of a block (6) with cylinderical sleeves that receive the inner tube (1) of the cable(3). Each cable end has the wires cut back to leave the projecting tube clear. Fitted onto the end of the cable, is a bush (2) is held by inset O-ring (13,14) seals. Tubes (10,11) are provided for supplying coolant to the inner tube of the cable. The terminal block and bushes are welded (17,18) together. ADVANTAGE - Joins without reducing cable cross-section.
