APPLICATION

• To electrically round out high-voltage connectors and to bond to insulating materials to minimize electrical stresses
• Continue semi-conducting strand shielding found in solid dielectric (polyethylene, XLP, EPR, etc.) cables at 5 kV and above
• Provide shielding for cable joints on solid dielectric insulated power cables (shielded or concentric neutral)
• Replace semi-conducting layer beneath metallic shield of similar cables in case of damage (screening)
• Make conductive portion of stress cone of power cable termination on solid dielectric insulated power cables
• Maintain positive connection between concentric neutral semi-conducting jackets of power cables and semi conducting surfaces of plug-in units
• Establish a more positive contact between concentric neutral wires and pre-molded devices already installed with too much jacket exposed
• Round out bolted connections on insulated bus bars

RECOMMENDATIONS

Care should be taken to avoid direct contact between the tape and petroleum-type solvents and oils. Oils may affect the electrical properties of the tape.

The rolls should be stored flat on their cut edges in the original packaging. The product must be protected from dust, heat, moisture, direct sunlight and solvent fumes. Storage temperature between +10°C and +25°C.

Under these conditions, the storage life of the tape in a temperate climate will be at least five years.
