5/15KV Jumper Cable
5kV/15kV Jumper Cable
Flexible rubber insulated and sheathed cable
- Conductors: Annealed flexible stranded tin coated in accordance with ASTM B 33 and ASTM B-173
- Separator: Semi-conducting tape separator between the conductor and insulation
- Insulation: Ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR)
- Outer jacket: A synthetic thermosetting CPE compound
- Color of outer jacket: Red
- Features: Excellent flexibility. Water resistant. Temperature range –40ºC to +90 ºC. Ink jet printed for easy identification.
- Application: Suitable as a flexible power lead for temporary connections. Other industrial applications
5/15KV Unshielded/Non-shielded Jumper–Exciter
Transformer Lead Wire
- Voltage: 5/15KV
- Conductors: Flexible stranded soft drawn copper, per ASTM.
- Insulation: Heat and moisture resistant 175mil thick ethylene propylene (EPR) insulation.
- Jacket: Heavy duty chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), which is sunlight, oil and moisture resistant. The jacket is available in either red or black.
- Standards: ASTM B-172 ICEA S-75-381
- Application: 5/15KV Jumper-Exciter Transformer Lead Wire is primarily used for flexible power leads, which permit temporary connections or bypassing energized power lines at voltages up to 15KV, phase to phase. These lead wires must be positioned away from contact with grounds, transformer cases, cross-arms, etc., to avoid possible high stress and capacitance leakage due to the jumper is not protected against prolonged contact with other conductors or grounds by shielding. The cable is rated for temperatures of -40°C to 90°C.
