Overview

The ABB 272SOPWB is a vital component within electrical distribution systems, specifically designed as an insulated parking bushing. This unit is rated for 200 Amps and operates at a significant voltage of 25kV, making it suitable for medium-voltage applications. Its construction includes a black vent ring and a white band, features that contribute to its functionality and identification. The 'Vented' designation indicates a design that allows for pressure relief or ventilation, a critical safety and operational feature in high-voltage equipment. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this parking bushing (SKU: 272SOPWB) serves as a stand-off plug, providing a secure and insulated termination point. Its primary role is to safely park or terminate high-voltage cables when they are not actively connected to a piece of equipment, preventing accidental contact and ensuring system integrity. The insulation properties are paramount for preventing electrical arcing and ensuring the safety of personnel and surrounding equipment. The inclusion of a vent ring suggests a design consideration for managing internal pressure or heat, which can build up in high-voltage applications.

How to Install and Connect the 272SOP/372SOP Stand-Off Plug

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the safe installation, grounding, and connection of an Elastimold loadbreak elbow connector to the 272SOP/372SOP Stand-Off Plug, ensuring proper isolation and dead-ending.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Hotstick, Cleaning supplies

Supplies needed:

272SOPWB Stand-Off Plug, Mounting hardware, Electrostatic grounding lead, Elastimold approved lubricant, Elastimold loadbreak elbow connector

  1. Prepare and Ground the Stand-Off Plug

    DANGER: All apparatus must be de-energized during installation. Connect the electrostatic grounding lead to the grounding lug on the Stand-Off Plug. Connect the opposite end of the grounding lead to a reliable ground, ensuring enough slack to operate with a hotstick. Remove the protective cap from the stand-off plug interface, then clean and lubricate the interface with an Elastimold approved lubricant. Do not substitute lubricants. Always replace the protective cap when the stand-off plug is not in use.

  2. Mount the Stand-Off Plug into the Parking Stand

    Rotate the eyebolt on the Stand-Off Plug counterclockwise until the nut is firmly in contact with the bracket. Attach a hotstick firmly to the eyebolt. Carefully slide the Stand-Off Plug into the designated parking stand.

  3. Secure the Stand-Off Plug

    Back off the hotstick. Rotate the eyebolt clockwise until the nut on the opposite end snugly wedges the Stand-Off Plug to the underside of the parking stand. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE BOLT to avoid damage.

  4. Connect the Loadbreak Elbow Connector

    CAUTION: Verify that the ground lead is connected between the stand-off plug lug and ground BEFORE assembling the elbow. Do not attempt to attach the ground lead after the elbow is assembled. Remove the ELASTIMOLD loadbreak elbow connector from its loadbreak bushing following its specific operating instructions. Insert the male contact of the loadbreak elbow into the stand-off plug and push it home with a fast, firm, straight motion. Ensure it is firmly in place and the locking ring is properly seated. Complete assembly is indicated by no portion of the yellow band being visible when viewed from the side.
