Medium Voltage Cable Termination Certification

Explain medium voltage cable components and construction.

Medium voltage cable termination certification.

The ncscb medium voltage personnel certification will be available to qualified applicants with a minimum of two years experience with splicing and terminating shielded power cables in the 2 1kv 35kv range. Preparation and completion of a 3m qts kit on 15kv shielded cable with a tape shield and an elastimold separable connecter on 15kv concentric neutral cable. Whether splicing or terminating is accomplished by the use of hand applied tapes a filled or molded device heat shrinkable tubing or a prefabricated device care should be exercised during the application. The national cable splicing certification board ncscb recently introduced a national program to certify medium voltage cable splicers.

Our cold shrink terminations offer a reliable sealing solution for medium and high voltage applications and are simple to install even in confined work areas helping you save time and money. Testing of medium voltage cable insulation and cable fault. Inspect and test medium voltage terminations and splices. Successfully complete a vlf tangent delta and.

Connectivity for cable screen and armor broad classification of cables. Install taped molded and heat shrink splices on tape shielded and jacketed concentric jcn cables. To develop the program the certification board involved union and non union. The program an offshoot of a regional certification the mid atlantic cable splicing certification board consists of a written exam followed by performance or practical exams.

The termination is made from pre stretched rubber wrapped around a core. Comparative merits mechanical protection of joints and terminations 3. All of our medium voltage terminations feature. Ncscb is a not for profit organization devoted to the development and administration of a personnel certification program for medium voltage cable splicers.

When the core is removed the rubber provides a constant inward pressure on the cable forming a seal which expands and contracts with variations in temperature and load. Basic approaches broad classification of joints terminations. Complete cable assemblies using terminations and splices. Splices and terminations which are always a vital part of any cable system become more susceptible to failure at higher voltages.

Prepare cable for splicing utilizing hand tools abrasives and solvents.
