RAYCHEM RCAB ELASTOMERIC INSULATING FLEXIBLE BOOTS
Description
TE Connectivity (TE)’s Raychem elastomeric insulating boots are moulded parts which fit over the connection between the cable lug
and the inline or right-angled equipment bushing to improve phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground insulation. They are used in switchgear and transformer cable boxes, where the air clearances are insufficient for normal operation, or to protect against flashover due to rodents or high humidity.
The non-tracking elastomeric housing has excellent erosion resistance, dielectric properties and environmental resistance, giving superb performance in areas of high humidity and electrical stress.
TE’s Raychem RCAB boots work in combination with all Raychem termination product lines including both elastomeric and traditional heat shrink technology.
TE’s Raychem RCAB boots are quick and easy to install and do not require any taping of the bushing or the termination. The boot can easily be removed and reinstalled without the need for additional material or tooling, allowing access to the bushing connection for test purposes.
