SEPARABLE POWER CABLE SPLICE CONNECTOR WITH MEANSFACILITATING ATTACHMENT TO SYSTEM COMPONENTSAbstract of the Disclosure:A separable splice connector which is particularlysuitable for 15/25 kV, 600 ampere primary distributionsystem cables is disclosed. The connector includes aunitary splice body assembly of molded elastomeric mater-ial having a longitudinal portion for receiving lug con-ductor terminated adjacent cable ends thereon, and atransverse portion for receiving removable threadedfastening means which function to secure the lug con-ductors together within the splice body. The fasteningmeans also provides interface or adapter means for ex-ternal interchangeable components. Accordingly, theconnector provides a separable straight splice of thecables and standard 600 ampere interfaces for transfor-mer bushings, connector plugs, test point plugs, reducingplugs, and the like.- 1 -
