Overview

ABB Installation Products PCT1-3 is a 15kV, pre-molded cable termination designed for medium-voltage applications. This housing-only solution accepts cables with insulation diameters from 0.830 inch to 1.180 inch and terminates to a 2-hole spade lug. The pre-molded design eliminates field molding requirements, reducing installation time and ensuring consistent dielectric performance. It is engineered for use in industrial power distribution systems, renewable energy substations, and utility-grade infrastructure where reliable, long-term cable termination is critical. The termination’s molded EPDM rubber housing provides environmental sealing against moisture, dust, and contaminants, maintaining insulation integrity in harsh outdoor or indoor conditions. Compatible with copper or aluminum conductors, the 2-hole spade lug configuration allows for secure mechanical and electrical connection to switchgear, transformers, or other equipment. This product is part of ABB’s Installation Products portfolio, trusted for precision and durability in medium-voltage cable management systems.
