- Diretrizes de seleção & Soluções de substituição
5.1 Parâmetros de seleção chave
| Parâmetro | Pontos-chave da seleção | Recommended Standard |
| Correspondência de tensão | Must match cable rated voltage | 12kV terminal for 8.7/15kV cable; not for higher voltage class |
| Core Number | Terminal core number shall be consistent with cable | 3-core terminal only for 3-core cable, not for single-core or 4-core |
| Conductor Section | Terminal range must cover cable conductor section | 70-120mm² terminal applicable to 70、95、120mm² cables |
| Shield Type | Terminal must match cable shield type | IH for copper wire shield; OH for copper tape shield |
| Ambiente de instalação | L type for outdoor; I type for indoor | Outdoor site must adopt L type with sheds |
5.2 Recomendações de substituição
Mismatched conductor section: Select corresponding range model, por exemplo. 150-240mm² use 3XIH4-L12A
Different shield type: Copper tape shield cable adopt 3XOH1-L12A
Indoor installation: Choose 3XIH1-I12A (without sheds)
Easier installation requirement: Adopt RAYCHEM cold-shrink terminal (RST series), no heating tool needed
5.3 Application Precautions
- Check cable insulation condition before installation to ensure no damage and no moisture.
- Strictly follow installation manual; control heating temperature at 300-350℃ and heating time.
- Clean and polish core insulation surface tightly to ensure close fitting of heat-shrink tube.
- Reliably connect shielding grounding wire to guarantee electrical safety.
- Perform insulation test and partial discharge test after installation; put into operation only after qualified.
- Applicable for overhead, tunnel, cable trench and other outdoor / semi-outdoor occasions; not suitable for underwater use.
