The HVT-Z high voltage termination system features a new, co-extruded onepiece termination. The main termination component consists of the proven Raychem non-tracking tube together with a co-extruded stress control grading layer. This stress control layer is based on ceramic semi-conductor technology (ZnO) and provides superior discharge and impulse performance. When the tubing is shrunk down, the coating softens and sticks to irregular surfaces, providing moisture seals as well as electrical stress control.

Reliable, field proven performance:
Independent testing and field experience have repeatedly proven the long-term stability, durability and reliability of Tyco Electronics’ HVT system, even in highly polluted environments. The non-tracking, insulating outer jacket can withstand the rigors of long-term electrical stress and surface pollution without loss of performance. The non-tracking material offers the additional benefit of being maintenance free, with no need for periodic cleaning. Extensive load cycle testing verifies the long-term thermo-mechanical compatibility between the termination system and the cable. This long-term HVT experience, together with the co-extruded ZnO stress control system, provides the new, superior HVT-Z termination.

Flexible and versatile:
An HVT-Z termination system may be installed upright or inverted and can bend to the same bending radius as the cable. Slim and lightweight, the system can also be mounted directly to fuse cutouts or other devices, eliminating the cost of additional supporting brackets.
