A plug-in type cable connector is a device used for cable connections, allowing plugging and unplugging operations without the need for a complete power outage, facilitating cable maintenance and replacement. This type of connector is commonly used in electrical equipment such as transformers, ring main units, and cable branch boxes.
Features of Plug-in Type Cable Connectors
Safety: Plug-in type cable connectors are typically fully insulated and fully sealed, allowing operation under live conditions, thereby enhancing operational safety.
Waterproof Performance: To extend the service life of plug-in cable connectors, rainproof devices are usually installed at both ends to prevent rainwater ingress and ensure optimal performance.
Protection Measures: In the event of a transformer short circuit, fuses are often installed within the plug-in cable connectors. When a short circuit occurs, the fuse blows to cut off the current, ensuring circuit safety.
Flexibility: Plug-in cable connectors offer expandability and easy assembly/disassembly, enabling “T”-type cable connections.
The outer layer includes a semi-conductive shielding layer, making it touch-safe and preventing accidents. The unique stress cone structure effectively disperses electric field stress, addressing issues at the cable shielding layer cut. Fully sealed, fully insulated, maintenance-free, submersible, and resistant to contamination. It can also be equipped with live indicators or fault indicators.
These products are widely used in 8.7-15kV voltage-level branch boxes, ring main units, and distribution cabinets for separable connections between cables and electrical equipment.
Manufactured using advanced post-injection molding processes and imported raw materials, they feature an optimized internal structure, excellent sealing, reliable operation, and flexible installation.
