Deadbreak Insulating Cap

Deadbreak Insulating Cap

600 Amp 15/28 kV deadbreak interfaces

Raychem 600A deadbreak insulating cap is available in 15/28 kV class. The insulating cap is meant
to provide insulated protection for energized 15-28 kV deadbreak interfaces.

They are frequently used temporarily or permanently within padmount cabinets, underground vaults,
switchgear, transformers, and a variety of other apparatus. Typical applications include system
maintenance, circuit reconfiguration, and future expansion.

A fully shielded, submersible connection is offered, with conformance to IEEE Standard 386. These
insulating caps are therefore interchangeable with other manufacturers’ products that also comply
with this standard.
