Shielded vs Non-Shielded Cable - High Voltage Termination

How to determine which Raychem components you need to complete your high voltage termination (greater than 1000 volts).  (Step 1 was here).

Step 2a:  Ok, your cable is shielded.  What is the voltage requirement?  
If it is 5 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-8 series
If it is 8 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-8 series
If it is 15 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-15 series
If it is 25 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-25 series
If it is 35 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-35 series
If it is 46 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-460 series
If it is 69 kV; you will be looking at the HVT-690 series

Step 2b:  Ok, your cable is non-shielded.  What is the voltage requirement?
If it is <1000 volts; you are going to be using a WCSM heat shrink sleeve
If it 1000 volts - 5000 volts; you are going to be looking at the HVT-50 family.

Up tomorrow:
Step 3a and 3b
