The UF Splice Kit consists of a connector-insulation assembly and a heat shrink tube. The connector assembly contains four cylindrical set screw connectors separated by a piece of vinyl insulation. The heat shrink tube is a heavy-wall, adhesive-lined t ube. Underground Feeder (UF)-B cables are flat, and typically have three solid conductors without ground or two solid conductors with a ground. They range in size from 8 AWG to 14 AWG. The most common UF cable size is 10-14 AWG. The 3M UF Splice Kit is offered in two versions: UF1 Standard Kit includes a 1.8" length terminal connector and an 8" length of heavy-wall, adhesive-lined heat shrink tube. UF2 Stretcher Kit has an 11.7 inch terminal connector and a 20 inch length of heavy-wall, adhesive-lin ed heat shrink tube. The Standard Kit is used in most of the applications. The Stretcher Kit is used in situations where a 7-10 inch section of the cable has been damaged or destroyed. It eliminates two connectors and a short piece of cable during repa ir.

The complete assembly is pre-stretched and loaded onto a removable core. The disposable core can be recycled. The kits are designed for terminating solid dielectric shielded power cables rated 5 through 34.5 kV, with tape shield, wire shield and UniShield constructions.

Applications

3M Cold Shrink Silicone Rubber Termination Kit QT-III, 7620-S, 7680-S and 7690-S Series are used to terminate tape shield, wire shield and UniShield power cable rated 5 - 34.5 kV, having extruded solid dielectric insulation as follows:

Polyethylene (high and low density), cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) and ethylene propylene rubber 9EPR)
The terminations are light weight for either free-hanging or bracketmounting arrangements.
They can be used in both protected and weather-exposed contaminated areas

The amount of airborne contamination determines the operating environment. Operating environments are described as areas having varying degrees of airborne contaminant or pollution severity that may, or may not affect the longterm performance of terminations. These operating environments are defined as light, medium, heavy and extremely heavy variations of pollution severity.
The appropriate termination selection depends on the system voltage and operating environment.
