An introduction to Kabeldon cable accessories 1-420 kv 2009, Edition 1 Safe junctions for reliable cable networks
Kabeldon cable accessories, safety by simplicity Making light work Modern society depends on cable networks being able to supply electric power without breakdowns. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and it is a well known fact that splices and terminations are the most sensitive system components. We have well-equipped high voltage and high current laboratories as well as a chemistry laboratory and profound expertise in the field of polymers. Fundamental technologies Our fundamental technologies within which we have accumlulated substential expertise over many years: conductor contact technology, thermal proporties, electrical stress control, polymeric materials, creepage current control and environmental protection. Reliable junctions in power cable networks Kabeldon cable accessories are used in power cable networks worldwide. Our product range contains joints, terminations and connectors for all kinds of connections between cables and equipment such as air- and gas- insulated switchgear, transformers etc. Unique, long experience Long experience brings great expertise. We have been developing and manufacturing Kabeldon cable accessories for about 70 years and when XLPE insulated cables began to be used over 50 years ago, we were involved from the outset. Since then we have always been in the forefront of developments. Professional training for professionals We offer a broad-based training in cable technology and cable accessories. The technology of cables and installation methods are constantly developing. We arrange training programmes and practical exercises in the assembly of cable accessories up to 420 kv at our facilities or at our customers premises.

Leading research and developments Our core competence is the electrical connections in power cable systems. Our watchwords are safety by simplicity. Successful product development requires proper resources.
Cable accessories 12-36 kv, outdoor and indoor Kabeldon cable accessories for 12-36 kv. Simple solutions, easy to install and with reliable function. Premoulded products The soft, flexible rubber provides active pressure towards the cable which ensures watertightness, increased electrical strength and safe performance during movements in the cable. Cable terminations for indoor or outdoor applications Kabeldon bolt technology Easy to connect safely using a torque wrench! No special tools such as compression tools or welding equipment are required. Cable connectors Insulated and screened separable cable connectors with various accessories for different applications. Prefabricated and premoulded Vital parts are integrated; the design minimizes the risk of faulty installation and enables readjustement during installation. Premoulded design enables inspection and high voltage testing prior to delivery. Cable joints Premoulded and taped joints for most types of cables. Other design features Other features for greater safety and long service life are the robust design for excellent mechanical protection and integrated control of the electrical field, optimized for each product and size. Range-taking Manufacturing the products from soft, flexible rubber means that fewer sizes are required to cope with different cable dimensions. Installation manuals with pictures Easy-to-follow installation manuals minimize the risk of incorrect installations due to misunderstandings.
Cable accessories 52-420 kv Cable accessories 52-420 kv. A wide range of cable joints and cable terminations for most XLPE-insulated cables. Outdoor cable terminations, 52-72 kv Cable terminations in different designs with porcelain or composite insulator. Prefabricated and premoulded The use of premoulded products makes it possible to perform routine testing on each body prior to delivery. The design also considerably reduces the assembly time and the risk of faulty installation is minimized. The cable terminations can be assembled on the ground under controlled conditions and then lifted into place. Outdoor cable terminations, 72-420 kv Cable terminations with premoulded stress cones and porcelain or composite insulator. Bolt technology Bolt technology provides excellent contact between connector and conductor and gives reliable current conduction. No heavy compression equipment or welding equipment is needed. Modular design Fewer kits of components combined to optimize the product for different types of cables makes it easier to choose the right specification, makes the accessories unusually easy to install and the installers become familiar with the components. GIS and trafo terminations, 72-420 kv Terminations used as a fixed connection point in gas-insulated switchgears or transformers. Geometrical stress control insensitive to frequency. Quality at all steps Factory routine tests and material inspection, reinforced cartons and boxes, professional training of jointers and easy-to-follow installation manuals.

The solutions are well known, tried and tested and Kabeldon products are world renowned for their high quality. Regardless of the type of cable you work with you will find the right accessory at ABB. We can also supply transition joints for joining different cable types. The same applies to cable dimensions and cable design. Designed for safe performance There are several demands on cable accessories. They must restore the characteristics and different layers of the cable, provide safe electrical connection, electrical field and creepage current control as well as moisture, environmental and mechanical protection. Kabeldon cable accessories are designed for safe performance. Most of the Kabeldon products are prefabricated or premoulded, easy to install and offer great flexibility. Because they are premoulded or prefabricated they can be pre-tested, an absolute must in many contexts. Sensitive components are tested as a matter of routine at the factory. Specially produced rubber compounds create active pressure around the cable, thereby sealing against moisture, helping to avoid air pockets and making sure the body surrounds the cable with a uniform pressure when the cable diameter changes under varying load conditions. Simplified installation for higher safety Prefabricated products and modular design makes the accessories unusually easy to install. The installers quickly become familiar with the components and this reduces the risk of mistakes. Vital parts and functions are integrated so the product design minimizes the risk of faulty installation and in many cases enables readjustment during installation. Easy-to-follow manuals also minimize the risk of incorrect installations. Better economy Kabeldon cable accessories provide greater safety in power cable networks. This as well as lower costs from easier and quicker installations means major savings in the long term. Our accessories are made from supple polymeric materials that are extremely flexible. Virtually every type of accessory can cope with many cable sizes, so you can manage with fewer versions. As the kits are delivered complete in reinforced cartons or boxes and have long storage life the routines for purchasing and stocking are simplified. Quality and the environment are among our top priorities. They are important and self-evident parts of the strategic plan. Our carefully considered investments in quality and the environment are based on modern principles. They lead to the fulfilment of ambitious goals for competitiveness and profitability, with a view to maximizing value to the customers. We work continuously to improve our processes. Important foundations for this work are: ISO 9001 quality standard ISO 14001 environmental standard
