Overview

The ABB 756LR-PAC04-S is a 35kV, 600A deadbreak elbow connector engineered for reliable, fully shielded submersible cable terminations in medium-voltage power distribution systems. This 600 Series unit is designed for dead-front applications, ensuring operator safety by preventing live parts from being exposed during installation or maintenance. The connector accommodates cable insulation diameters from 1.725 inches to 1.935 inches and supports conductor sizes ranging from 750 to 1250 kcmil, including compressed, stranded, compacted, and solid types for both aluminum and copper conductors. Key features include a test point for diagnostic testing without cable disconnection, a tin-plated aluminum shearbolt lug for secure conductor termination, and a cold-shrinkable jacket seal for environmental protection against moisture and contaminants. The fully molded rubber housing is peroxide-cured for durability, with EPDM materials providing insulation and conductivity. The unit meets ANSI/IEEE Standard 386 and delivers a 600A continuous rating with 25kA symmetrical momentary withstand for 10 cycles. Installation is simplified with standard hand tools, and the elbow can be easily connected or disconnected in a de-energized state. Optional accessories enable visible external separation, bypass, isolation, dead-ending, grounding, and testing, as well as the addition of taps, surge arrestors, and fault current indicators. This deadbreak elbow is ideal for underground power cable connections to high-voltage apparatus, including transformers, switchgear, and other distribution equipment in utility, industrial, and commercial installations. The shearbolt lug design ensures consistent contact pressure and excellent conductivity, while the corrosion-resistant tin plating enhances long-term reliability in demanding electrical environments.
