Boots
Insulating boots are moulded parts

which are shrunk over the connection
between the cable lug and bushing
to insulate them. They are used in
switchgear and transformers with
compound filled boxes where the
clearances are insufficient for
operation in air or to protect against
flash over due to rodents or extreme
humidity.
A full range of insulating boots are
available up to 17.5 kV. These can be
ordered separately by quoting the
part number or with the termination
by adding a mod code to the end.
Example:
EPKT-17C3MOH3-B07
This kit comes complete with straight
boots.

2. Insulating boot kits are also available for up to 36 kV applications.
For such requirements please refer to your local sales representative.
Support Insulators and Bracket
We also manufacture a range of

hybrid insulators. The sheds of red,
non tracking, flexible polymeric mate-
rial are mounted on a porcelain core.
Sets of three, along with a galvanised
steel T-bracket, can be ordered for
applications up to 36 kV either as
separate kits by quoting the part
number or with the termination by
adding the mod code to the end.

TE Connectivity Raychem Heat-shrinkable Joint Sleeve Rayfit for Medium Voltage Joints
Raychem Rayfit joint sleeve
The outer conductive layer and

insulating middle layer provide the
heat-shrinkable hold-out for the inner
elastomeric layer of the joint sleeve.
During the heat-shrink installation
process, the stored recovery force
of the elastomer is released and
combines with the recovery force of
the heat- shrinkable layers.
As a result, the electrical interfaces
are reduced to the minimum and the
joint sleeve provides a tight electrical
interface.
The elastomeric characteristic of the
materials, combined with the rigid
outer heat-shrinkable (screen) layers
enable the joint to follow the thermally
induced dimensional changes of the
cable insulation.

General Instructions
Use a propane (preferred) or butane gas torch.
Ensure the torch is always used in a well-ventilated environment.
Adjust the torch to obtain a soft blue flame with a yellow tip.
Pencil-like blue flames should be avoided.
Keep the torch aimed in the shrink direction to preheat the material.
Keep the flame moving continuously to avoid scorching the material.
Clean and degrease all parts that will come into contact with adhesive.
If a solvent is used follow the manufacturer’s handling instructions.
Tubing should be cut smoothly with a sharp knife leaving no jagged edges.
Start shrinking the tubing at the position recommended in the instruction.
Ensure that the tubing is shrunk smoothly all around before continuing along the cable.
Tubing should be smooth and wrinkle free with inner components clearly defined.
