G&W Electric’s Capnut Terminations are designed and tested in accordance with IEEE-48, 1975 standards for Class 1 terminations. They are used where insulated cables are connected to generators, switchgear, transformers, overhead lines or sectionalizing equipment.
Features and Benefits
Single conductor units in ratings of 15, 25, 34.5, and 46kV for 1/0 to 2000 kcmil cables.
Three conductor units are rated 15, 25, and 34.5kV for conductor sizes through 1000 kcmil.
Bracket and flange mount models for pole or equipment mounting.
Accepts any construction of extruded dielectric, paper insulated or armored cable.
