Overview

The ABB 167ELR-6689-220-240 is a 200 Amp, 15kV Loadbreak Repair Elbow Connector designed for medium-voltage cable systems requiring reliable, field-repairable connections. This connector accommodates cable insulation diameters from 0.665 inch to 0.895 inch, making it suitable for a range of 15kV class installations. The repair elbow features an extended length contact and elbow housing, providing a net gain of 3-1/4 inches in length compared to standard designs. This additional length improves mechanical clearance and installation flexibility in tight spaces or complex cable configurations. The connector includes the 02509X long Bi-Metal Contact, which ensures consistent electrical performance and thermal stability across varying load conditions. The rubber construction provides dielectric integrity and environmental resistance, protecting the connection from moisture, contaminants, and mechanical stress. This product is ideal for emergency repairs, maintenance operations, or permanent installations where loadbreak capability is required for safe switching under load. Common applications include utility substations, industrial power distribution, renewable energy systems, and commercial facilities where medium-voltage cables require reliable, repairable terminations. The ABB 167ELR-6689-220-240 is manufactured to meet utility-grade standards, ensuring long-term reliability in critical infrastructure. The UNSPSC code 39121421 classifies this as a medium-voltage cable connector, confirming its role in power transmission and distribution systems.
