**************************************************************************
IEEE Std 48, Class 1. Provide terminations as specified herein for
terminating single conductor PILC cable. Cable termination must be a
one-piece cold shrink 15 kV or 25/28 kV Class device and meet all 15 kV, 25
kV (+ prorated 28 kV) requirements for Class 1 terminations as recorded in
IEEE Std 48. Termination must be a molded rubber unit where the built-in
stress relief mechanism uses the concept of high dielectric constant
capacitive stress grading. Molded rubber insulator must be made from
silicone rubber.
2.1.8
Medium Voltage Cable Joints
Provide joints (splices) in accordance with IEEE Std 404 suitable for the
rated voltage, insulation level, and insulation type of the cable. Upon
request, supply manufacturer's design qualification test report in
accordance with IEEE Std 404. Connectors for joint shall be tin-plated
electrolytic copper, having ends tapered and having center stops to
equalize cable insertion. Connectors shall be rated for voltage of 35 kV
minimum.
a.
Heat-shrinkable joint: Consists of a uniform cross-section
heat-shrinkable polymeric construction with a linear stress relief
system, a high dielectric strength insulating material, and an
integrally bonded outer conductor layer for shielding. Replace
original cable jacket with a heavy-wall heat-shrinkable sleeve
with [hot-melt adhesive coating.] [waterproof mastic seal on both
ends.]
b.
Watertight taped-type joint: Consists of an approved connector,
self-fusing or self-bonding insulating tape, self-fusing
semiconducting tape, tinned copper shielding tape or braid, and
plastic tape.
[c. Vulcanized-type joint: Heat-pressure process of an approved type
and employing materials and equipment suitable for the type and
voltage of cables for which it is used. Materials used in the
jointing process shall be fully and permanently compatible with
materials in the cables. Vulcanized-type joints are limited to 5
kV systems.]

[d. Cold-shrink rubber-type joint: Joint shall be of a cold shrink
design that does not require any heat source for its installation.
Splice insulation and jacket shall be of a one-piece factory
formed cold shrink sleeve made of black EPDM rubber. Splice shall
be packaged three splices per kit, including complete installation
