3M™ Modular Splicing Kit 5815 is a fully shielded separable connector system. It allows a complete dead front connection that is suitable for operating in submerged or locations. This kit is used with the 3M Modular Splicing System 5815 Series that is rated for 5 to 25 kV and 600 amp industrial shielded power cables.
3M™ Modular Splicing Kit 5815 includes 1 cable adapter, 1 aluminum compressed connector, 1 cold shrink jacketing tube, 2 silicone lubricants and more. It provides installation information for wire shield, tape shield, UniShield® and jacketed concentric, neutral type solid dielectric cables. For use with 5815 kits to provide for It is suitable for dead ending, splicing and connecting to dead front apparatus like switches, switchgear and transformers that are equipped with bushings. It has an insulating plug that provides a safe means of testing the circuit without disturbing the bolted connection. Simply adding or removing modular components helps the system for future modification. Meets ANSI/IEEE Standard 386.
