Overview

The ABB Ranger2 Termination (SKU: R2T35J2-H0240) is engineered for reliable 35kV outdoor applications, specifically designed for concentric neutral and jacketed concentric neutral cables. This termination utilizes shrink-fit technology combined with Elastimold's pull-down jacket seal for a robust and versatile solution. It accommodates cables with insulation diameters ranging from 0.84 inches (21.3 mm) to 1.38 inches, suitable for conductors from #2 AWG up to 1250 kcmil. The included aluminum 1-hole spade connector is rated for 2-500 kcmil conductors, supporting stranded or compressed 1/0 compact or solid 2/0 conductors. The non-tracking silicone housing offers superior memory and weathering characteristics, with eight sheds providing ample creepage and strike distances for long-term service in demanding field conditions. Designed for direct burial or aerial installation, the Ranger2 termination ensures a weatherproof seal at the cable jacket interface, preventing moisture ingress and maintaining dielectric integrity. Its compact design allows for installation in restricted spaces and permits free-hanging applications. Key electrical ratings include a maximum design voltage to ground of 22 kV, a coronal extinction voltage (≤ 3pC) of 30 kV, and a lightning impulse withstand (BIL Dry 110 Withstand) of 200 kV crest. The 10-second wet (60Hz) withstand is 80 kV, and the 1-minute dry (60Hz) withstand is 90 kV. Installation procedures are standardized, utilizing common cable preparation dimensions and a field-removable center core for ease of use.

How to Install the R2T35J2-H0240 35kV Cable Terminator

Step-by-step guide for installing the R2T35J2-H0240 35kV Ranger 2 Cable Terminator on concentric and jacketed concentric neutral cables.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Approved solvent, Aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer, if needed)

Supplies needed:

Silicone Rubber Termination Halves, Lubricant, Strips Grey Silicone Rubber Tape, Strips Sealing Mastic, Gloves, Vinyl tape or binding wire, Terminal lug (if not included), System ground connection

  1. Prepare the Cable

    Verify the cable size is within the kit's range. Train the cable into position and cut to the required length, ensuring sufficient neutral wire length for grounding. Prepare the cable according to the specified dimensions, allowing for terminal lug depth and extra exposed conductor for crimping. Wrap one band of mastic around the cable jacket 1/4" (6mm) from the end, cut flush. Bend neutral wires back over the mastic and secure them to the cable jacket 4-6" (100-150mm) from the cut edge using vinyl tape or binding wire. Apply a second mastic band over the neutral wires and the first mastic, cut flush. Wrap two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape around the mastic seal, maintaining the 1/4" (6mm) dimension.

  2. Install Lug or Connector

    If using the included lug or connector, position it and crimp according to the manufacturer's directions. Do not crimp the last 1/4" to 3/8" of the connector. Remove excess oxide inhibitor and sharp crimp flashings. If a different lug is used and does not fit through the termination core, slide the termination onto the cable before installing the lug. Do not remove the core at this time.

  3. Clean Cable Insulation and Lug Barrel

    Wipe the cable insulation with an approved solvent, avoiding contact with the semi-conductive insulation shield. If abrasive is necessary, use only aluminum oxide abrasive (grit 120 or finer) on the insulation only, being careful not to reduce the cable insulation diameter below the kit's allowance.

  4. Install Termination - First Housing

    Wrap a band of gray silicone rubber tape around the base of the terminal lug to create a track-resistant moisture seal. The tape band should not exceed 2 layers if the barrel diameter is equal to or greater than the cable primary insulation. If the barrel diameter is smaller, use the tape strip to form a band equal to the insulation diameter. Apply a liberal coating of silicone grease to the edge of the semi-conductive insulation shield to fill the step at the cut-off. For the lower termination with a fold-down skirt, pull the loose end of the removable core through the top until it is flush with the bottom. Slide the termination body onto the cable, aligning it with the forward edge of the mastic seal. Carefully remove the core by unwinding counter-clockwise, ensuring the termination body, not the core, is butted against the mastic seal. Do not push or pull on the termination assembly during core removal.

  5. Install Termination - Second Housing

    Using the second housing, carefully pull the core down to within 1 coil of the bottom. Slide the terminator over the cable and carefully pull the core counterclockwise. Overlap the first terminator by 1-1/2" (40mm).

  6. Complete Termination Sealing

    Apply a thin film of silicone lubricant to the skirt and mastic seal area (do not lubricate skirt tabs). Carefully fold down the skirt over the mastic seal. Complete the lug area moisture seal using the remaining gray silicone rubber tape, overlapping the termination insulator by approximately 1" and extending the tape wrapping over a non-crimped region of the lug/connector barrel in a half-lap configuration. Confirm that the High-K step does not exceed 1.5".

  7. Connect Ground

    Twist the concentric neutral wires together and connect them to the system ground.
