Conductor Repair Sleeves

  are used where the strands of the overhead line conductor are broken. The conductor repair sleeve is simply compressed over the damaged section of the overhead line conductor. The diameter and the length of the repair kits vary in order to suit the applicable overhead line conductor.

• All cable/conductor lugs and connectors shall be of class A, which intended for electricity distribution networks in which they can be subjected to short-circuit of relatively high intensity and duration.
• Cable/conductor lugs and connectors shall meet or exceed the performance of conductor in all respect.
•  All cable/conductor lugs shall be four bolt mechanical connectors type.
• Cable/conductor lugs shall be suitable for cable sizes listed inTable-1
• Manufacturer’s drawings shall show the outline of the lugs together with all pertinent dimensions. Any variation in these dimensions due to manufacturing tolerances shall be indicated.
• 1. Material:
• Cable/conductor lugs and connectors shall be made from copper metals as specified in the technical data schedule. It should be decided during detail engineering or as per EEU Requirement.
• All copper lugs and connectors shall be made of copper as per DIN-40500 with tin plated surface of thickness not less than 5 microns.
  1. Construction
     • The construction details and dimensions are given in the attached drawings which form part of this specification.
     • A summary of cables and conductors for which the lugs and connectors shall be used is given in Table-1
