Overview

The ABB K151SP-C2250 is a 200 Amp, 15/25kV deadbreak elbow straight plug designed for medium-voltage cable terminations in utility, industrial, and commercial power systems. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this component provides a fully shielded, fully submersible molded rubber housing with 100% peroxide-cured EPDM insulation and conductive materials for long-term reliability. The straight plug design ensures secure, insulated connections while accommodating cable insulation diameters from 0.805 inches to 1.060 inches, supporting conductor sizes from 2/0 AWG compressed stranded to 3/0 AWG solid (67.43 mm²). The integrated copper compression lug ensures low-resistance electrical continuity, while the provision for ground wire connection enhances safety in grounded systems. This deadbreak elbow is engineered to meet ANSI/IEEE Standard 386 for 15kV and 25kV voltage classes, with ratings including 8.3kV phase-to-ground and 14.4kV phase-to-phase for 15kV, and 15.2kV phase-to-ground and 26.3kV phase-to-phase for 25kV. The K151SP-C2250 is compatible with UD cable featuring concentric neutral and extruded insulation shielding, and can be used with other cable types when paired with the appropriate Elastimold cable shield adapter. Note that bails are required for installation and must be ordered separately. This product is ideal for terminating medium-voltage cables in applications requiring reliable, submersible, and fully shielded terminations.

How to Install the K151SP Straight Plug

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for preparing the cable, assembling the K151SP Straight Plug, and connecting it to a mating receptacle on 15kV and 25kV class systems.

Estimated time: 1h 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Crimping tool, Wire brush, Rag, Approved solvent

Supplies needed:

K151SP Straight Plug kit (includes Conductor Contact, Nylon Venting Rod, Pin Installation, Lubricant), Solid dielectric type cable, ELASTIMOLD bail, #14 AWG (or equivalent) copper wire, HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s) (if replacing shipping covers), Crimp chart, Bailing instruction sheet (150TB-4), Silicone grease

  1. Perform Safety Checks and Initial Preparation

    Ensure all apparatus are de-energized before starting installation or removal of parts. Install and operate all apparatus in accordance with individual user, local, and national work rules. Do not touch or move energized products. Inspect all parts for damage, proper rating, and compatibility with mating parts. Confirm the package contents are complete and undamaged, and that all components fit properly with the cable and/or mating products. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure. A bailing arrangement is required when this product is used with any mating Elastimold deadbreak product.

  2. Prepare Cable Jacket

    For Jacketed Concentric Neutral cable, cut and remove the cable jacket a distance of 8 inches from the cable end. Ensure sufficient concentric neutral wires are left for connecting to the ground point. For Copper Tape Shield cable, cut and remove the cable jacket a distance of 7-1/2 inches from the cable end, then remove the copper tape shield a distance of 6-1/2 inches from the end of the cable. If using an ECS or MA grounding device, follow its specific jacket cut-back instructions.

  3. Prepare Cable Insulation and Conductive Shield

    Remove 7/8 inch to 1 inch of cable insulation and conductive shield. For #1 stranded/compressed and #1/0 compressed/solid aluminum cable, remove 1-3/4 inches to 1-7/8 inches. Cut squarely; do not pencil the cut. Wire brush bare aluminum conductors and immediately insert them into the crimp barrel, which contains an inhibitor.

  4. Crimp Socket Terminal

    Crimp the socket terminal onto the bared conductor, holding the crimp barrel against the cable insulation. Refer to the crimp chart provided with the contact for specific instructions. Begin crimps at the crimp line imprinted on the crimp barrel and rotate each successive crimp or indent 90 degrees. Carefully wipe any excess inhibitor from the contact and cable insulation.

  5. Prepare Semi-Conductive Shield and Clean Insulation

    Temporarily remove the plastic pin. Remove the semi-conductive shield to a point 7-3/4 inches to 7-13/16 inches back from the end of the socket with a straight, smooth, squared cut. Do not cut or nick the insulation. Replace the plastic pin. Pencil the insulation 1/8 inch. Clean the outer jacket and thoroughly clean the insulation to remove all traces of semi-conducting residue by wiping with a rag wet with an approved solvent, always wiping from the end of the cable toward the outer jacket. If using an ECS or MA grounding device, install it following its appropriate instructions.

  6. Lubricate and Position Collar

    Slide the collar, smaller end first, onto each cable. Refer to the bailing instruction sheet. Maintain cleanliness of the cable insulation and plug. Apply the supplied lubricant sparingly to the cable as shown and to the inside of the housing. Do not substitute other lubricants, as they may be harmful to the product or its mating product.

  7. Install Cable into Plug Housing

    Push the cable into the housing until the leading edge of the socket contact is flush with the front edge of the plug. Remove the plastic pin from the socket and discard it.

  8. Connect to Mating Receptacle

    Lubricate the nose of the plug with silicone grease. Place the nylon rod into the receptacle face until it bottoms (approximately 1-3/4 inches), taking care not to cut the rod. Insert the plug assembly into the receptacle as far as possible. Pull out the nylon rod. Secure the electrical connection with an ELASTIMOLD bail, referencing the Bailing Instruction Sheet (150TB-4).

  9. Connect Grounding Wire

    If an ELASTIMOLD grounding device is not being used, connect a length of #14 AWG (or equivalent) copper wire (customer supplied) through the grounding tab and twist tightly. Connect this grounding assembly to the system ground by merging it with the cable shield of each cable. Seal the grounding wires and connections to prevent corrosion.
