Overview

The ABB 167LRT-F5210 Loadbreak Bolted Elbow with Tap is a 200 Amp, 15kV deadbreak connector engineered for medium voltage power distribution systems. This fully-shielded, fully submersible molded rubber elbow connector delivers reliable and safe switching operations in industrial and utility environments. The 167LRT-F5210 is rated for 15kV class systems with a maximum phase-to-ground operating voltage of 8.3kV and phase-to-phase voltage of 14.4kV. It meets ANSI/IEEE Standard 386 requirements, including a 95kV BIL impulse withstand rating, 34kV AC one-minute withstand, and 53kV DC 15-minute withstand. The connector supports continuous and loadbreak operations up to 200A with a 10kA symmetrical momentary and fault close rating for 10 cycles. Designed for compatibility with cable insulation diameters ranging from 0.640 inches to 0.820 inches, the 167LRT-F5210 accommodates compressed stranded conductor sizes from AWG #3 up to AWG #2 solid, with a cross-sectional area of 26.67 mm². The integrated bi-metal compression lug (02800X) ensures secure, durable connections, while the included 02800X bi-metal contact enhances electrical performance and longevity. The loadbreak-rated tap point must be covered with an insulated cap when not in use to maintain full shielding and submersibility. The 167LRT-F5210 is installed using the supplied installation tool (200-15) and includes a wrench (271-94), lubricant (82-08), and installation instructions (IS-0354-167LRT). The connector mates with ANSI Std. 386, Fig. 5 bushing wells and conforms to Fig. 3 well dimensions. With a fully molded rubber housing, this elbow connector provides corrosion resistance and environmental protection in harsh operating conditions. Ideal for phasing, grounding, testing, or arrester protection in 15kV-class distribution apparatus, the 167LRT-F5210 is a critical component for medium voltage power distribution networks.

How to Install the 167LRT Loadbreak Bushing Tap

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe installation and initial setup of the Elastimold 167LRT Loadbreak Bushing Tap. This device is designed to terminate UD cable and interface with 15kV class loadbreak elbows or accessories. All apparatus must be de-energized during installation.

Estimated time: 2h

Tools needed:

Wrenches, Installation Tool, Wire brush, Crimp tool, Hotstick

Supplies needed:

Lubricant (Do Not Substitute), Compression Lug, Socket Contact, Well Contact, No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire, Grounding connector, Insulated Cap or Elbow (mating product)

  1. Train the Cable

    Train the UD cable as shown in the diagram to ease future operation. Cut the excess cable squarely at the center line of the bushing, ensuring a minimum of 20 inches beyond the end of the cable.

  2. Prepare Cable End for Termination

    Unwrap and bind the concentric neutral wires 8-1/2 inches back from the end of the cable. Remove the shield and insulation from the cable end, cutting squarely and taking care not to nick the conductor. Wire brush bare aluminum conductors and immediately install the compression lug, rotating it to spread inhibitor. Position the compression lug so its contact threaded hole aligns with the bushing bore. Refer to the crimp chart for tool information, starting crimp at the mark and rotating 180 degrees for successive crimps. Carefully wipe excessive inhibitor from the lug and cable. Remove the semi-con shield as shown, and bevel the insulation end 1/8 inch maximum. Thoroughly clean the insulation to remove all traces of conductive residue.

  3. Assemble Bushing Well Contact

    Thread the well contact onto the bushing well stud by hand, taking care not to cross-thread. Tighten with the supplied wrench until the wrench bends, signifying proper torque.

  4. Install Bushing Tap Housing

    Remove the protective cap from the bushing tap and retrieve the socket contact stored inside. Lubricate the cable insulation and the inside of the bushing housing with the supplied lubricant; do not substitute. Keep insulation clean and avoid introducing grease into the gap between the lug and insulation. Slide the bushing tap onto the cable using a back-and-forth twisting motion, then wipe off all excess grease. Align the bushing with the compression lug hole and assemble the socket contact into the bushing tap, ensuring the socket contact stud passes through the lug hole.

  5. Mount and Torque Bushing Tap

    Inspect the apparatus bushing well to ensure it is dry and free from contaminants. Lubricate the bushing well interface area of the bushing tap with the supplied lubricant. Place the lubricated bushing tap into the apparatus bushing well. Insert the installation tool into the bore of the bushing tap until fully seated. Insert the wrench through the wrench hole of the tool and turn clockwise until the wrench bends, indicating proper assembly torque. Remove the wrench and installation tool.

  6. Connect Concentric Neutral to Ground

    Insert one end of a No. 14 AWG (2.5mm) copper wire or equivalent through the grounding eye on the bushing tap, twisting it tight without damaging the eye. Twist the neutral wires and connect them to ground using an appropriate connector.

  7. Prepare Bushing Tap for Mating Product

    Thoroughly wipe the bushing tap interface clean of any contaminants. Apply a light, uniform coat of supplied lubricant, working it thoroughly into the surface. CAUTION: Excess lubricant may prevent a loadbreak elbow from being fully seated in the 'locked on' position. Install the mating products (e.g., loadbreak elbow, insulated cap, or grounding elbow) following their specific instructions. If not immediately mating, replace the shipping cap, but do not energize or submerge the apparatus with only the shipping cap, as it is not insulated or watertight.
