I. Product Overview

JY HMP-15kV/600A/200A/ Mixed Busbars are multi-specification mixed busbar accessories designed specifically for 15kV (10kV level) medium-voltage power distribution systems. They are integrally injection molded from high-purity EPDM ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber, integrating 600A and 200A interfaces to achieve parallel busing of power distribution equipment bushings and multiple cable accessories of different specifications. They also provide insulation, bus connection, and grounding protection functions. They can be used with accessories such as T-type cable joints, surge arresters, and insulating caps, and are widely used in ring main units, prefabricated substations, cable branch boxes, and other equipment. They are a key component in medium-voltage power distribution systems for solving the problem of busing at interfaces with different current levels.

II. Product Characteristics

1. Electrical and insulation properties

  • Made of high-purity EPDM ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber through integral injection molding, it has no seams or air gaps, excellent insulation performance, can withstand the rated voltage of 15kV system and short-time overvoltage, meets the operating requirements of the maximum working voltage of 17.5kV, and has sufficient insulation margin.
  • With an internal electric field optimization structure and stress control layer, the electric field is evenly distributed, effectively suppressing partial discharge. There is no risk of electrical erosion or breakdown during long-term operation, and the partial discharge amount is ≤10pC (1.5U₀).
  • It features a built-in copper busbar with excellent conductivity and low contact resistance. The 600A interface can carry a rated current of 600A, while the 200A interface is compatible with 200A accessories. It generates little heat during long-term operation and has strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation.
  • It has a built-in grounding connection structure, which can achieve reliable grounding, effectively release fault current and induced voltage, and improve system safety.

2. Structural and Safety Features

  • With a fully insulated, fully sealed, and touch-accessible structure, the outer layer has high insulation strength, allowing direct contact with the outer casing during operation without the risk of electric shock, thus ensuring the safety of maintenance personnel.
  • The integrated multi-circuit hybrid interface design can provide both 600A and 200A interfaces simultaneously, enabling parallel connection of accessories with different current ratings. It is compatible with equipment bushings and multi-channel cable accessories, requiring no additional adapters and making installation convenient.
  • The design prevents mis-insertion and incorrect connection. The interface size strictly matches the corresponding specification accessories and can only be matched with accessories of the corresponding level, preventing the mixing of accessories of different specifications. It has a built-in positioning and locking structure to prevent loosening and falling off after installation.
  • The interface layout is reasonable, the operating space is sufficient, and the accessories are easy to plug and unplug, allowing installation and maintenance to be completed without special tools.

3. Environmental and Weather Resistance

  • It has excellent weather resistance and can adapt to a wide temperature range of -40℃ to +90℃. The elasticity and insulation properties of the rubber do not decrease under high and low temperatures, and there is no risk of cracking or embrittlement. It is suitable for various outdoor and indoor scenarios.
  • Moisture-proof, waterproof, stain-proof, and salt spray-proof, with an IP67 protection rating, it can operate stably for a long time in harsh environments such as underground, humid, and dusty conditions, and is not afraid of rain or condensation corrosion.
  • It is resistant to aging, ultraviolet rays, and ozone corrosion, with a service life of over 30 years. It requires no maintenance and reduces subsequent operation and maintenance costs.

4. Mechanical and Adaptation Characteristics

  • It has high mechanical strength, is impact and vibration resistant, and can withstand mechanical stress during transportation, installation and operation without deformation or damage risk. Its seismic resistance level reaches level 8.
  • It is compatible with 15kV 600A standard equipment bushing interfaces and can be interchanged with T-type cable joints, surge arresters and insulating caps of the same specifications. It is also compatible with 200A level accessories, making it highly versatile.
  • The interface is standardized and conforms to IEEE 386 and relevant domestic standards. It can be adapted to the bushing interface of mainstream 15kV American power distribution equipment to meet the current collection needs of lines with different current levels.
