Nexans Adds T-shaped Connectors To MV Range Nexans has extended its range of compact medium-voltage (MV) connectors with two T-shaped connectors designed for use with compact switchgear and transformers. The M430TB connector is for use with higher voltages (up to 36 kV) and the M434TB connector is for higher currents (up to 1,250A). Nexans' T-shaped connectors create a compact connection solution, enabling two cables to be connected in the same space required for one cable using a traditional, non-compact connector. As well as being suitable for applications where space is a limiting factor, the Nexans compact connectors also enable users to increase the capacity of an existing installation. The M430TB and the M434TB are separable bolted connectors designed to connect polymer-insulated cable to wind-turbine equipment such as switchgear and transformers. They can also be used for cable-to-cable connections with the appropriate mating parts. A key design feature is the 3mm EPDM...
