Overview

The ABB 35PCJ-Q is a 35kV power cable joint designed for medium-voltage cable systems requiring reliable insulation and conductor continuity. This joint accommodates cable insulation diameters between 1.900 and 2.120 inches, making it suitable for 35kV class applications in utility, industrial, and commercial installations. It ensures electrical integrity by providing a secure, insulated connection between two cable ends, preventing moisture ingress and maintaining dielectric strength across the joint. The design follows industry standards for medium-voltage cable accessories, ensuring compatibility with copper or aluminum conductors and cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) or ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) insulation systems. Typical applications include substation feeder circuits, underground distribution networks, and industrial power distribution where 35kV-rated cable is deployed. The joint is part of ABB’s Installation Products portfolio, a manufacturer known for durable electrical components in power infrastructure. For accurate sizing, verify the cable’s insulation diameter against the 1.900-2.120 inch range before installation.

Special Features
Power Cable Joints utilize permanently crimped connectors. PCJ housings are fully insulated, shielded and sealed for direct-burial, vault, submersible and other servere service applications. Units have been designed and tested per IEEE Standard 404 to ensure system matched performance and ratings equal to the cable to which the splice will be installed. Power Cable Joints are available in two styles. Style 1 uses a single-piece housing that is sized to accommodate a specific range of cable - ideally suited to straight splicing of the same or similar cable. Style 2 designs incorporate a universal housing with separate cable adapters to allow transition splices of different types and sizes of cable
