Cable Joints
Cable joints are essential electrical components used to connect two or more cables securely. They ensure continuous electrical connectivity, maintain insulation, and provide mechanical protection against environmental hazards like moisture and stress. Proper jointing prevents power failures, ensuring reliable transmission across low, medium, and high-voltage power networks.
Cable Terminations
Cable terminations are critical electrical devices that safely connect power or communication cables to equipment like switchgear, transformers, or overhead lines. They effectively manage electrical stress, restore vital insulation integrity, and seal cable ends against moisture ingress. This prevents dangerous flashovers, ensuring reliable, long-term network performance.
