Medium Voltage Cable

Termination Kits

RHTI/RHTO – X1 For Single Core Polymeric Insulated Cables (XLPE/EPR) up to 36kV

REPL Heat Shrink Cable Termination Kits are extensively tested and used worldwide for
reliable cable junctions in the voltage range from 7.2kV to 36kV.The kits are designed 1
for either indoor or outdoor applications for cables with polymeric (XLPE or EPR)
insulation and can be used with both compression or mechanical type lugs (which can
be supplied in the kit if specified).
The termination kits combine the anti-tracking external tubing for excellent weathering 2
T

and electrical properties together with an internal stress control tube for field control at
the insulation screen cut.
Where applicable, sheds are included for extending the creepage distance – kits can be
3
tailored with extra sheds for areas with high pollution or for coastal installations.
E

For cables with armouring, a solderless earth kit is included to create a consistent 4
connection from the cable screen and armour.
All kits come with adequate mastic tapes for sealing and easy to follow installation 5
instructions.
E

The termination kits can be used in conjunction with other REPL accessories such as 6
insulating boot kits, gland plates and pole top mounting brackets and insulators.

Notes
*the diameter of insulation values are based on typical designs – due to manufacturing tolerances and conductor construction, the range of cables sizes
suitable for each kit may change dependent upon actual cable to be terminated.
For cables with copper tape screens/armouring, additional earthing kit can be supplied with the kit – specify suffix - /E after kit number, i.e. RHTI 12X 95-240-
1/E
A full range of cable insulating boots, cable glands, earthing kits for special cable constructions and pole mounting brackets are available – please see relevant
RHTI/RHTO-X1 23V1

data sheets
For special applications not covered by standard kits, please consult your local REPL sales office.
