3M™ Motor Lead Pigtail Splicing Kits 5380 Series are designed for splicing motor lead cables to incoming feeder cables. These kits are removable and reusable.
3M™ Motor Lead Pigtail Splicing Kits 5380 Series can accommodate pigtail (stub) connections, 5/8 kV shielded and non-shielded feeders. The splice’s main component, the slip-on splice cover, is made from EPDM rubber. Mastic is used for the moisture seal on the pigtail kits. The kits utilize a high dielectric constant (K) stress control termination for the feeder cable’s electrical stress control. These kits are designed to be used with copper compression lugs. After being crimped onto the cables, the lugs are bolted together, then insulated and sealed with the 3M™ Motor Lead Splicing Kits. Each kit contains all the necessary materials (except lugs) needed to make three splices. The lugs must be purchased separately. 3M™ Scotchlok™ Copper One Hole Lug Series 30000, or other UL listed copper lugs, can be used. Kit contents include: • (3) Lug covers • (3) Cold Shrink terminations • (12) Mastic sealing strips • (3) Copper tape strips • (3) Cleaning kits • (6) Tubes of silicone grease • (3) Cold shrink jacket tubes • (3) Constant force springs • (3) Cable ties • (3) Ground straps • (1) Instruction sheet
