CAP-CAS

Provides aluminum connection between clamps and vices of portable earthing and short-circuiting devices.
The permissible short-circuit current is defined by the cable cross-section and the short-circuit time.

The lugs are connected to the cable core by a B crimp, and the device is sealed by a 2nd hexagonal crimp, known as shrinking, on the cable sheath.
This crimping ensures that the sealing function is maintained over time, without the need for cable maintenance.
As the thimble is finished with a significant bend, the cable sheath is not damaged and remains intact over time.
The table below defines the maximum short-circuit currents in kA permissible for copper cables, as a function of cross-section, temperature at end of short-circuit and short-circuit time.
Temperature rise of aluminum cable at end of short-circuit: 500°C
