Nexans Euromold 480TB Separable Tee Connector

Interface C (for up to 42 kV, 630 A – 1250A )

Nexans Euromold 480TB Separable Tee Connector is designed to connect polymeric insulated cable to equipment (transformers, switchgear, motors, etc.) with interface C bushings. It can also be used to connect cable to cable when using the appropriate mating parts.

These are available for the following voltage classes:-

  • 6/10 (12kV)
  • 6.35/11 (12kV)
  • 8.7/15 (17.5kV)
  • 12/20 (24kV)
  • 12.7/22 (24kV)
  • 18/30 (36kV)
  • 19/33 (36kV)
  • 20.8/36 (42kV)


Specification & Standards –

  • The 480TB separable connector meets the requirements of CENELEC HD 629.1.

Technical Characteristics –

  • A thick conductive EPDM jacket provides a total safe to touch screen.
  • Each separable connector is tested for AC withstand and partial discharge prior to leaving the factory.

Design –

Separable connector comprising:

  1. Conductive EPDM insert.
  2. Conductive EPDM jacket.
  3. Insulating EPDM layer moulded between the insert and the jacket.
  4. Type C interface as described by CENELEC EN 50180 and 50181.
  5. Conductor contact.
  6. Basic insulating plug.
  7. Cable reducer.
  8. Conductive rubber cap.
  9. Clamping screw.
  10. Earthing lead.

The screen break design enables cable outer sheath testing without removing or dismantling the connector. These connectors are also known as Touch-proof screened separable connectors or touch-proof terminations. There are various applications of this product viz. GIS cable termination, RMU cable termination, Switchgear connection, Transformer termination etc.
