T-Body Connectors are fully screened and for indoor or outdoor applications, and are
fully submersible when mated with proper able to be used for all polymeric cable types
bushings or plugs. The products are used ( XLPE, ETP, etc.) with copper or aluminum
to terminate polymeric cable to dead front conductors. The design is especially suited
apparatus such as transformers, switchgear, for the harsh off-shore or wind farm
and other equipment. They can be used for environment, where long runs and large cable
