Additional Information

The system is easy to expand and is flexible, allowing for easy disconnects and additions. Using one or more of the versatile kits, you can make virtually any kind of splice, 2-way, 3-way, 4-way, dead-end or connect cable to your gear's 600 Amp bushing with equipment connection kit. Matching a particular cable in accordance with any 3M™ modular splicing kit is also easy and precise. Kits are comprised of modular components and are assembled following the provided instructions. The only additional supplies you need are an adapter kit for each cable being connected, which provides a custom fit of your cable to the modular system. A T-wrench is also available for the kits containing a c connecting plug. With 3M™ modular splicing kits, you can install critical splices in the field quickly and reliably. And, you can re-enter for splice expansion or temporary dead-ending. With 3M™ modular technology, every splice can maintain the insulating and shielding integrity of the original cable. A 3M™ Cold Shrink insulator, included, provides a fast, easy means of rejacketing over the shield adapter and seals the splice to the cable jacket, permitting use in submerged locations such as manholes and vaults. 3M™ modular splicing kits install easily on standard shielded power cables and are compatible with copper and aluminum conductors. All connecting components are reusable per ANSI/IEEE standard 386.
