Product information
Introduction
The Eaton Cooper Power series Deadbreak Elbow Connector
is a fully-shielded and insulated plug-in termination for
connecting underground cable to transformers, switching
cabinets and junctions equipped with deadbreak bushings.
The elbow connector and bushing comprise the essential
components of all deadbreak connections.
Wide cable ranges are sized to accept cables insulated at
either 175 mil or 220 mil within a given conductor size. The
wider cable ranges increase installation flexibility.
The coppertop (bimetal) compression connector is a
standard item to transition from the cable to the deadbreak
probe. An aluminum crimp barrel is inertia-welded to a
copper lug. The aluminum barrel makes the connector easy
to crimp and the copper lug ensures a reliable, tight, cool
operating connection with the probe contact.
CAUTION
The 200 A Deadbreak Elbow Connector is designed to
be operated in accordance with normal safe operating
procedures. These instructions are not intended to
supersede or replace existing safety and operating
procedures. The elbow connector should be installed
and serviced only by personnel familiar with good
safety practices and the handling of high-voltage
electrical equipment.
