PC J~Pow er C able Joints utilize perm a-
nently crim ped connectors. PC J H ousings
are fully insulated, shielded and sealed for
direct buried, vault, subm ersible and other
severe service applications. U nits have
been designed and tested per IEEE
Standard 404 to assure system m atched

TERMINATIONS
Elastim old cable term inations are
available in single piece or m odular
designs. Term inators allow connection
and transition from shielded, under-
ground cable to bare overhead
conductors and live-front equipm ent.
U nits are designed and rated per IEEE
Standard 48 for riser pole, padm ount,
indoor and outdoor applications.
PC T1, PC T2, 16TH G and 35M TG
term inators provide sufficient creep,
strike and w eather sealing for class 1
outdoor service. PC T1 and PC T2 also
include an integral cable jacket seal.
The 35M TG I term inators and 35M SC
stress cones are rated for class 2 and
class 3 indoor service respectively.
O ptional m ounting brackets, aerial lugs
and equipm ent connectors are avail-
able as required.

ELA STIM O LD M etal O xide Varistor (M O V)surge arresters are fully-
shielded, fully-subm ersible and are equipped w ith IEEE 386 interfaces for
convenient energized connection w ith other 200 A m p loadbreak com po-
nents. U nits are com pact, allow ing installation in existing cabinetry. For
application ease, arresters are available in 3 styles: Elbow (ESA ), Parking
Stand (PSA )and B ushing (B SA ). The PSA and B SA arresters perm it direct
connection elim inating the need for additional accessories.
Elastim old arresters provide high voltage lightning and sw itching surge
protection of transform ers, cable, equipm ent and other com ponents typi-
cally located on underground pow er distribution system s. Proper place-
m ent, voltage selection and coordination w ith riser pole arresters m inim izes
dam aging surge voltages by im proving protective m argins.
Typical applications include installing an arrester at the end of a radial
system or at both ends of an open point on a loop system . Additional
arresters can be added at strategic locations upstream from the end point
for optim um protection. R equest Form 2068 (Surge Protection O ptions For
U nderground D istribution) and Form 2069 (A rrester A pplications

INSULATION DIAMETER SELECTION GUIDE
Elastim old Elbow s, splices and term inations are designed for application on XLP,
EPR and other solid dielectric insulated pow er cables. These com ponents are con-
structed of m olded elastom er and rely on an interference fit w ith the cable insulation
diam eter in order to m aintain proper dielectric strength, creep path integrity and a
w ater seal. Elastim old com ponents are available in a w ide range of sizes in order to
accom m odate a variety of cable insulation diam eters.
Selection of size-sensitive com ponents requires determ ining the cable insulation
diam eter. This can be done in several w ays:
A . R efer to the cable m anufacturers spec sheet for dim ensions.
B. M easure the cable.
C . If the cable conform s to A EIC standards w ith a 175, 220, 260 or 345 m il w all
thickness, use the table on page 34.
After the cable insulation diam eter has been determ ined:
1. Locate the W table indicated in the part num ber selection chart.
2. C om plete the ordering inform ation by selecting and inserting the sym bol
(given in the W table) into the part num ber.

To com plete the inform ation required to order a K 655LR -W 0X elbow
for use on standard A EIC 500 kcm il stranded alum inum cable w ith
.220 inch thick insulation w all.
A . D eterm ine that the insulation diam eter
(from A EIC table on page 34) is 1.325 .030 inches.
B. For this elbow, the part num ber selection chart on page 11 indicates
to use table W 7 for elbow sizing and table X6 for connector sizing.
C . From table W 7 the sym bol for W is L.
D .From table X6 the sym bol for X is 330.
E. The com pleted part num ber therefore is K 655LR -L0330.

CONNECTOR SELECTION GUIDE
Elastim old elbow s, splices and term inations are furnished w ith crim p style
cable connectors. As standard, these connectors are constructed w ith a
tin-plated alum inum barrel filled w ith an oxide inhibitor. A lum inum barrel
connectors are designed for use on either alum inum or copper conductor
cable.
W hen specified, all copper crim p style connectors can be furnished. These
connectors are O N LY for use on copper conductor cable and are not for
use w ith alum inum conductor cables.
B i-m etallic connectors are constructed w ith a copper top and an alum inum
barrel. B i-m etal connectors can be used on either alum inum or copper
conductor cable and are furnished as standard w ith 200 A m p Loadbreak
Elbow s, 200 A m p D eadbreak Elbow s, and PC T, 16 TH G or M TG term ina-
tors w ith rod connectors.
Selection and ordering the proper crim p connector requires determ ining
inform ation relative to the cable conductor as follow s:
A . C onductor size in AW G or kcm il
B. C onductor type (stranded, com pressed, com pact or solid)
C . C onductor m aterial (alum inum or copper)
After the cable conductor inform ation has been determ ined:
1. Locate the X table indicated in the part num ber selection chart.
2. C om plete the ordering inform ation by selecting and inserting the
sym bol (given in the X table) into the part num ber.

3. Securely fastena hotstick to the loadbreak connector pullingeye.
4. After establishingfirmfootingandpositivecontrol of theelbowconnector, withdrawtheelbowfromtheaccessorydeviceontheapparatus parkingstand
witha fast, straight, firmmotionbeingcareful not to place the elbowconnector near a groundplane.
NOTE: Check appropriate accessory device operatinginstructions to be sure that the device is ratedfor energizedoperation.
5. Place the elbowconnector receptacle area over the bushingplug, insertingthe elbowmale contact (arc follower portion) into the bushinguntil the first
slight resistanceis felt. Resistanceis felt whenthearc follower portionof themalecontactfirst meets thefemalecontact of thebushing(at this point the
contacts are approximately 2apart).
NOTE: DONOTHOLDINTHIS POSITIONBUTIMMEDIATELYPUSHTHE ELBOWHOME WITHAFAST, FIRM, STRAIGHTMOTION.
Apply sufficient force to engage the internal lock onthe elbowconnector andbushinginterface.

Hotstick
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before Loadmake or Loadbreak Operation=
Loadbreak connectors must be operated with an eight foot long, fully insulated "hotstick" type of tool.
Area must be clear of obstructions or contaminants that would interfere with the operation of the connector. This position should allow you to establish firmfooting
and enable you to grasp the hotstick tool securely, maintaining positive control over the movement of the loadbreak connector before, during and directly after the
operating sequence. Because of the control, speed andforce required to engage or disengage the elbow, certain operating positions are more advantageous than
others. lf there is some question as to proper operating position, it is recommended that the connectors be operated de- -energized. Do not connect two different
phases of a multiple- -phase system. Before closing a single- -phase loop, make certain both ends of the loop are the same phase.
LOADMAKE OPERATION
CAUTION= Check appropriate accessory device operating instructions to be sure that the device is rated for energized operation.
2. ln preparing bushing for elbow connector, remove insulated cap by attaching hotstick tool to the insulated cap pulling eye, and following the instructions for
this accessory, remove from bushing.
4. After establishing firmfooting and positive control of the elbow connector, withdraw the elbow fromthe accessory device on the apparatus parking stand
with a fast, straight, firm motion being careful not to place the elbow connector near a ground plane.
5. Place the elbow connector receptacle area over the bushing plug, inserting the elbow male contact (arc follower portion) into the bushing until the first slight
resistance is felt. Pesistance is felt when the arc follower portion of the male contact first meets the female contact of the bushing (at this point the contacts are
approximately 2" apart).
CAUTION= Do not hold in this position but immediately push the elbow home with a fast, firm, straight motion, which will engage the internal lock on the
elbow and bushing interface.
Apply sufficient force to engage the internal lock on the elbow connector and bushing interface.
FauIt CIose
41 It is not recommended that operations be made on known fauIts.
2. lf a fault is experienced, both the elbow connector and the bushing must be replaced.
LOADBREAK OPERATION
CAUTION= Pefer to appropriate operating instructions for accessory device to be used. Be certain it is rated for energized operation.
4. Withdraw the connector from the bushing with a fast, firm, straight motion, being careful not to place the connector near a ground plane.
VOLTAGE TEST ON 5:7RLR
The ELASTlMOLD loadbreak elbow connector is equipped with an integral capacitance test point that can be used to establish whether or not the circuit is
1. Pemove test point cap with a hotstick. When removing cap, PEEL OFF AT AN ANGLE rather than pulling directly in line with the test point assembly.
2. Using a suitable sensing device, proceed to determine if cable is energized. DO NOT USE CONVENTIONAL VOLTAGE MEASURING EQUIPMENT1
WARNING= THE VOLTAGE TEST POINT IS A CAPACITANCE DEVICE/ IT IS NOT DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE
CONDUCTOR1 Contamination: moisture, dirt, etc. around the test point, or use of the wrong measuring equipment ca provide a false NOvOLTAGE"
indication on an energized elbow. To prevent serious or fatal injury treat the elbow as energized until the No voltage" test point indication is confirmed by
other means.

STEP C PREPARATION
ENSURE THAT THE SYSTEM IS DE0 0ENERGIZED WITH EITHER OF THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES=
1. Check the capacitive test point on the loadbreak elbow for voltage, with an appropriate voltage detection device.
CAUTION= The voltage test point is a capacitance device; it is not directly connected to the conductor. lt requires the
use of specially designed instruments. NOlNDlCATlON WlLL BE OBTAlNED UNLESS THE COPPECT TOOL lS USED.
2. Pemove existing elbow or insulated cap fromthe bushing with a hotstick following the applicable loadbreak operating
instructions (lS- -167/168LP, lS- -273/274LP or lS- -375/376LP). Firmly tighten a hotstick to the 370TP test rod operat- -
ing eye. lnsert the test rod into the bushing. Using a meter capable of direct reading the system voltage, check the
test rod disc for voltage. Pemove test rod.
IMPORTANT= lf voltage is indicated by either of the two preceding procedures, do not proceed without de- -energizing
the system.
CAUTION= The hotstick eye and disc of the test rod are not insulated; be careful to keep them clear from ground until
tested "de- -energized".

Elbow Cable Entrance Insulating Plug
ISSUE DATE 0199

10EP-W
To order, specify number 10EP-W. The 10EP elbow cable
entrance insualting plug is available for the Ealstimold elbow
cable entrance sizes EB, EF, FA, FAB, FB, FG, GA, GAB and
GB.
The 10EP-W elbow cable entrance insulating plug includes
the following:
1 Insulated plug 10EP
1 Lubricant 82-08
1 Installation instruction IS - 10EP (E) 8/83
Application:
The ELASTIMOLD 10EP elbow cable entrance insulating plug
is designed to electrically insulate and water seal the cable
entrances of ELASTIMOLD 200-amp elbow connectors.
The 10EP insulating plug makes it possible to provide an
electrically and mechanically sound dead-end cable entrance
on any ELASTIMOLD elbow connector. This is designed with
a threaded hole on one end to simulate the conductor con-
tact in order that the elbows male contact can be installed.
Installation of the 10EP enables the elbow connector to func-
tion as a dead-end receptacle for any mating bushing inter-
face. This flexibility provides an advantage in that the need for
the normal dead-end receptacle is alleviated and the elbow
required for future cable installation is already in place. By
using elbow connectors equipped with a test allows the ad-
ditional advantage of a dead-end receptacle with test point.
The normal function of the elbow connector is restored by
simply removing the 10EP and replacing it with a properly
prepared cable.

STEP :
Thoroughly wipe the bushing tap interface clean of any contaminants and apply a light, uniform coat of supplied lubricant,
working thoroughly into surface. CAUTON: EXCESS LUBRCANT may prevent a loadbreak elbow from being fully seated in
the locked on position. nstall the mating products to the bushing tap following the instructions supplied with the mating
products. f the bushing tap is not to be immediately mated with an elbowconnector, insulated cap or grounding elbowconnector,
replace the shipping cap. Do not energize or submerge the apparatus with the shipping cap on the bushing tap. This is a
protective cap only which is not insulated or water tight and only intended to keep the bushing tap surfaces clean during handling
and installation.

Before Loadmake or Loadbreak Operation=
Remove Fluid njection or Voltage Test Cap and install nsulated Cap following instructions packaged with these parts.
Area must be clear of obstructions or contaminants that would interfere with the operation of the connector. This position should allow you to establish firm footing
and enable you to grasp the hotstick tool securely, maintaining positive control over the movement of the loadbreak connector before, during and directly after the
operating sequence. Because of the control, speed and force required to engage or disengage the elbow, certain operating positions are more advantageous than
others. f there is some question as to proper operating position, it is recommended that the connectors be operated de--energized. Do not connect two different
phases of a multiple--phase system. Before closing a single--phase loop, make certain both ends of the loop are the same phase.
LOADMAKE OPERATION
NOTE= Check appropriate accessory device operating instructions to be sure that the device is rated for energized operation.
2. n preparing bushing for elbow connector, remove insulated cap by attaching hotstick tool to the insulated cap pulling eye, and following the instructions
for this accessory, remove from bushing.
4. After establishing firm footing and positive control of the elbow connector, withdraw the elbow from the accessory device on the apparatus parking stand
with a fast, straight, firm motion being careful not to place the elbow connector near a ground plane.
5. Place the elbow connector receptacle area over the bushing plug, inserting the elbow male contact (arc follower portion) into the bushing until the first slight
resistance is felt. Resistance is felt when the arc follower portion of the male contact first meets the female contact of the bushing (at this point the contacts
are approximately 2 apart).
NOTE= DO NOT HOLD IN THIS POSITION BUT IMMEDIATELY PUSH THE ELBOW HOME WITH A FAST/ FIRM/ STRAIGHT MOTION/ which will
engage the internal lock on the elbow and bushing interface.
Apply sufficient force to engage the internal lock on the elbow connector and bushing interface.
FauIt CIose
41 It is not recommended that operations be made on known fauIts.
2. f a fault is experienced, both the elbow connector and the bushing must be replaced.
LOADBREAK OPERATION
NOTE= Refer to appropriate operating instructions for accessory device to be used. Be certain it is rated for energized operation.
4. Withdraw the connector from the bushing with a fast, firm, straight motion, being careful not to place the connector near a ground plane.

Ratings:
25kV Voltage Class
Application:
Elastimold 600 Amp separable cable joints are modular kits
2-way, 3-way or 4-way insulated bus bars and retractable
straight receptacle housings. The K656I Separable I Joint
is based on the 2-way bus bar. The cables are bolted via
compression lugs to the bus bar. The straight receptacle
housings slide over the connections to form a fully shielded,
fully submersible 2-way disconnectable cable joint.
The K656I Joint is used to join cables in a disconnectable 2-
way joint. It is suitable for small vaults and manholes due to
its compact size. The K656I is modular and ideal where sepa-
rable components are required to accommodate future sys-
tem circuit changes or expansions. The K656I can also be
used in direct-buried applications.
Feature:
15/25kV, 600 Amp separable bolted cable joint.

Application:
The Style 1 Power Cable Joint is designed for use on power
cables with or without an outer jacket and can be applied
directly on these cables without taping. The cable joint con-
sists of two components, a molded housing and a splice
contact. When assembled, the Style 1 provides a permanent,
fully shielded, fully submersible cable joint for direct burial or
vault application. It can be used to join cable runs on new
installations or to repair cable runs on existing installations.
The 15PCJ1F/1G can accommodate cables ranging from
.640 (16,3mm) to .95 (24,1mm) insulation diameter.
The 15PCJ1 is rated for use on power distribution circuits up
to 15kV with a current rating equal to that of the cable on
which it is installed.

Application:
The 16THG terminator provides a class 1 indoor or outdoor
termination conforming to the requirements of IEEE Std. 48
through 25kV. This terminator can also be used in switchgear
or padmount transformers. ELASTIMOLD outdoor terminators
are lightweight and constructed of gray EPDM rubber. The
16THG is designed for use on extruded dielectric cables,
and can be applied directly on cables with extruded semi-
conductive shields. Units will accommodate aluminum or
copper conductors ranging from No. 6 to 4/0 AWG range and
an insulation range of .459" (12,6 mm) through 1.115 (28,3
mm). Other types of semi-conductive shields, such as lead
sheath or fabric tape, can be accommodated by using ELAS-
TIMOLD shield adapters: 10TL, 20MA or 21MA.

Elastimold Terminations are designed for use on three-
phase systems, either 3-wire or 4-wire and the single-phase
laterals of these systems. Ratings are based on IEEE Std. 48
and do not reflect maximum levels.

CSADIE NOTICE:
Engineering calculations denote the results of crimping with the suggested C.S.A. dies should have a completely satisfactory
connection. However, recommendations for suitable C.S.A. dies to crimp these connectors, were determined, mathematically,
fromtests done on certain selected crimp connectors. Complete testing has not been done on all sizes.

Application:
Elastimold 16THGH terminator housing is a components of
the 16THG-WX-4 and the 16THGS-WX terminator product line.
The 16THG terminator provides a class 1 indoor or outdoor
through 25kV. This terminator can also be used in switchgear
or padmount transformers. ELASTIMOLD outdoor terminators
are lightweight and constructed of gray EPDM rubber. The
16THG is designed for use on extruded dielectric cables,
conductive shields. Units will accommodate aluminum or
copper conductors ranging from No. 6 to 4/0 AWG range and
an insulation range of .459" (12,6 mm) through 1.115 (28,3
mm). Other types of semi-conductive shields, such as lead
sheath or fabric tape, can be accommodated by using ELAS-
TIMOLD shield adapters: 10TL, 20MA or 21MA.

or padmount transformers. ELASTIMOLD 16THGS outdoor
terminators are lightweight and constructed of gray EPDM
rubber.
The 16THGS is designed for use on extruded dielectric cables,
conductive shields. Units will accommodate solid alumi-
num or copper conductors only ranging from No. 2 to 4/0
AWG with an insulation range of .495 (12,6 mm) through

Application:
The 35MSC series of stress cones provides a class 3 indoor
through 35kV. Typical uses include pad-mounted transform-
ers, switchgear, and other indoor applications where shielded
cable is being terminated.
The 35MSC is designed to accept cable insulation diam-
eters from .495 (12,6mm) to 1.875 (47,6mm). While de-

MOV Surge Arrester - 35 kV Class
ISSUE DATE 0199
PAGE 1 OF 3
375ESA
ELASTIMOLD Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) surge arresters are fully shielded, fully submersible and are equipped with IEEE 386
interfaces for convenient energized connection with other 200 Amp loadbreak components. Units are compact, allowing
installation in existing cabinetry. For application ease, arresters are available in 3 styles: Elbow (ESA), Parking Stand (PSA) and
Bushing (BSA). The PSA and BSA arresters permit direct connection eliminating the need for additional accessories.
Elastimold arresters provide high voltage lightning and switching surge protection of transformers; cable, equipment and
other components typically located on underground power distribution systems. Proper placement, voltage selection and
coordination with riser pole arresters minimize damaging surge voltages by improving protective margins.
Typical applications include installing an arrester at the end of a radial system or at both ends of an open point on a loop
system. Additional arresters can be added at strategic locations upstream from the end point for optimum protection. Request
Form 2068 (Surge Protection Options For Underground Distribution) and Form 2069 (Arrester Applications Underground
Electrical Systems) for additional application and margin of protection information.

Electrical Ratings & Protective Characteristics:
The 167MOV Arresters meet the performance requirements of IEEE Standard C62.11 (Metal Oxide Surge Arrester for Alternat-
ing Current Power Circuits), plus conformance to applicable sections of ANSI/IEEE Standard 386 (Separable Insulated
Connector Systems for Power Distribution Systems above 600V)*.
Performance:
High Current Short Duration : 375MOV Arresters withstand two discharges of 40kA crest.
Low Current Long Duration : 375MOV Arresters withstand 20 surges of 75 amperes/2000 microsecond duration.
Duty Cycle Test : 375MOV Arresters withstand 22 operations of 5kA crest/S x 20 microsecond duration
while energized at rated voltage for the initial 20 operations and MCOV for the final two
operations.
Following each of the proceeding tests, the Arresters demonstrate thermal recovery at MCOV.

The 200ECS and 600ECS Jacket Sealing Kits are designed
for use on jacketed concentric neutral cables where a means
of resealing the jacket is required on elbows or other termi-
nating accessory installations. Using the field-proven reli-
ability of retained memory cold shrink EPDM rubber, the dam-
aging effects of moisture ingress can be prevented. The
chemical, ultraviolet and ozone resistance of this material
makes it very suitable for both indoor and outdoor applica-
tions. The rugged yet resilient nature of the 200ECS and
600ECS is superior to tape or heat shrinkable products.

Application:
ELASTIMOLD K151SR Straight Receptacles are fully shielded,
fully submersible, separable insulated connectors designed
to connect a cable to another cable or to apparatus. They
require the use of an appropriate Elastimold mating product
installed on the other cable or the apparatus. The discon-
nectible feature can be used only when the circuit is de-
energized. The K151SR is suitable for use on both 15 and
25kV systems.
The K1515R are designed to terminate UD cable having con-
centric neutral and extruded insulation shielding. They can
be used to terminate other types of cable when installed with
the proper ELASTIMOLD cable shield adapter. The K151SR
will accommodate conductor sizes of No. 6 solid through 4/0
stranded and cable insulation diameters from .495 through
.985.
The K151SR is designed to mate with other ELASTIMOLD
products including:
K150T tee splice

K151LY-WX
Phone: (908) 852-1122 Fax: (908) 813-2108

Ratings:
25kV Voltage Class
Application:
The K151LY locking Y splices provide a permanent, fully
shielded, fully submersible, Y splice. Typically, the K151LY
can be used where a new tap is required on an existing cable
run or where a Y joint is required in a new cable installation.
If a tap is required at some future time the tap leg of the Y
splice can be insulated with a K150DR. When the tap is re-
quired, de-energize the system, remove the insulating plug
and insert the prepared cable tap. The K151LY is for up to 25
kV use. Installed either directly buried or in a vault, the pin and
socket interlock of the K151LY will withstand pulls of up to
500 lb.
The K151LY are designed to accept cable insulation di-
ameters of .495 to .985. While designed for use on UD
cable having concentric neutral and extruded insulation
shielding, the K151LY will operate equally as well on other
shielded cables when used with the proper ELASTIMOLD
cable shield adapter.
