The dry compact switchgear termination for voltage classes up to 170 kV is designed to be installed in cable entry housings of gas-insulated
switchgear (GIS). It complies with IEC 60859 standard, which essentially specifies the interfaces between the termination and the switchgear.
Therefore the termination will fit into all GIS complying with IEC 60859.
An adapter is available to match the dimensions of wet (oil-filled) type terminations, which are also specified in IEC 60859.
The termination operates under SF6 but also under insulating liquids like transformer oil. A corona shield at the top of the termination then provides the necessary shielding of the terminal.

The termination is easily separable and consists of a plug-in part and an epoxy resin insulator. The insulator can be installed by the GIS or transformer manufacturer already at the factory saving installation time onsite and reducing the risk of contamination of the cable entry housing. In case of short cable links and due to the short length and light weight of the plug-in part it can be also preinstalled by the cable manufacturer
further reducing the time required to install a substation.
