Capnut Terminations

Capnut Terminations are designed to be used where underground cables are connected to generators, switchgear, transformers, overhead lines or sectionalizing equipment. All terminations are tested in accordance with IEEE 48, 1975.

Used to terminate insulated cables connected to generators, switchgear, transformers, overheads lines, or sectionalizing equipment.

Features and Benefits

  • Single conductor units in ratings of 15kV, 25kV, 34.5kV, and 46kV

  • Bracket and flange mount models for pole or equipment mounting

  • Modular design allows for customization based on application and cable design

  • Three conductor units are rated 15kV, 25kV, and 34.5kV

  • Accepts any construction of solid dielectric, paper insulated or armored cable

  • Tape stress cone allows for field adaption when working with legacy cable systems where information may be limited
