Live End Seals - MVES 080 Series
8kV Medium Voltage Live End Seal

Clear cap for single-core 7.2-11kV extruded dielectric shielded power cables

About:
The Innovative Power Products MVES 080 series live end seal is a heatshrinkable system for live ending (clear capping) 8kV extruded dielectric, jacketed power cable that has been abandoned but still energized. The MVES uses an extruded dielectric plug to encapsulate the conductor and special materials to control electrical stress at the plug/cable-end interface and at the shield cutbacks. Field control material is used to control stress over the interface and at the shield cutbacks. Insulating tubings reinstate the cable insulation and insulating shielding tubing reshields the joint and forms an internal seal to the cable’s semiconductive layer. Tinned copper mesh reestablishes the metallic shielding around the assembly. An end cap covers the shielded assembly’s end. A tough abrasion resistant jacketing tube and sealants provide moisture seals and mechanical protection.

Performance:
MVES kits are factory engineered to provide fast and easy installation with reliable lifetime performance.

MVES 080 live cap performance is based on the design and testing of the IPP MVJ 080 series joint for metallic tape and wire shielded power cables.

MVES kits are designed to meet the requirements of the applicable sections of the cable accessory standard IEEE-404.
