Overview

ABB Installation Products 69TCJS44247P5MANNB is a 69 kV transmission cable joint designed for medium-voltage power distribution systems. This Shieldbreak housing type 4, size 4 joint accommodates conductor diameters from 1.378 to 1.425 inches (35.00–36.19 mm), ensuring compatibility with standard transmission cables. The housing features a copper tape shield (Type Shield A) for electromagnetic interference mitigation and grounding continuity. No metallic screen continuity kit or armor kit is required, simplifying installation. The heatsink has an outside diameter of 2.750 inches (69.85 mm) with an M1.468-inch bore, providing thermal management for high-current joints. The outer jacket restoration kit includes a standard heat-shrink package for environmental protection. This joint is optimized for transmission cable systems where shield continuity must be broken for testing or maintenance without compromising system integrity. The absence of required connectors reduces installation time and material costs. Suitable for substations, switchgear, and industrial power distribution where 69 kV-rated cable joints are standard.
