Overview

The ABB K656ETP-J0280 is a 600 Amp, 25kV deadbreak elbow connector kit engineered for robust medium-voltage cable terminations. This deadbreak elbow incorporates a window operation connector, which is equipped with an integrated test point. This test point facilitates secure voltage verification without necessitating service interruption, enhancing operational efficiency and safety. The comprehensive kit includes an aluminum compression lug. This lug is specifically designed to be compatible with compressed stranded conductors, supporting sizes up to 250 kcmil, and also with compacted solid conductors, accommodating sizes up to 300 kcmil. The connector kit is suitable for a range of cable insulation diameters, specifically from 0.980 inch to 1.180 inch. The deadbreak technology integrated into this elbow ensures safe, load-break operation even when subjected to full-rated current. This capability makes it an optimal choice for integration with switchgear, transformers, and pad-mounted equipment commonly found in utility and industrial environments. The window connector design streamlines both the installation process and subsequent testing procedures, contributing to ease of use. Furthermore, the inclusion of an aluminum lug guarantees durable and low-resistance electrical connections, crucial for maintaining system integrity. This connector kit is engineered to meet demanding medium-voltage distribution requirements, presenting a compact and field-proven solution for 25kV class electrical systems.
