Connecting polymeric to PILC cables
Transitioning from PILC to XLPE or EPR MV cables presents unique challenges due to the fundamental differences in construction and insulation materials. Reliable connections require careful preparation of the cables, proper sealing against moisture, and compatible stress control between the paper and polymeric insulation to ensure long-term electrical and mechanical integrity.
Solution
LoviSil® M Splice
- Fluid silicone design – fluid insulation fills any potential cavity inside around the connection and prevents the oil impregnated paper insulation from drying out.
- Robust construction – easy-to-install, impact resistant shells. Outer shells filled with polyurethane resin providing a long-term moisture barrier.
- Easy & safe – little installation space required, less splicer dependent steps, minimal tools and flame-free installation.
