Description
Insulation Piercing Connectors (IPCs) are used in Medium Voltage Covered Conductor (MVCC) systems. They enable connections without stripping the conductor’s insulation, offering reliable performance and ease of installation. IPCs are commonly used to continue the line over the pole, for tapping, or for network connections to extend the MVCC system.
Material
- Body: Black high-strength engineering polymer for mechanical reliability of the connector.
- Contact Plates: Tinned copper or aluminum alloy.
- Fasteners: Galvanized steel.
- Shear Nut: Aluminum or engineering polymer.
Features and Benefit
- Standard Compliance: Complies with national and international testing standards (BS EN 50397-2).
- Quick Installation: Eliminates the need to strip the conductor, reducing installation time.
- Reliable Electrical Connection: Ensures a low-resistance connection through precision-engineered contact points.
- Safety: Minimizes the risk of conductor damage or errors during installation.
- Cost-Effective: Reduces the need for additional tools and operational downtime.
