Abstract
This reports the development, testing, installation, and operation of 69Kv ungrounded neutral tee joints for a crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) cable circuit, which is the sole supply for a downtown urban renewal area in Lexington, Kentucky. The total circuit length is 3030 feet, consisting of three sections, the longest being 1630 feet. Conductor connections were made with a heat-fusion process. Joint dielectric consisted of self-amalgamating ethylene propylene tape. The circuit has been in operation since the late Spring of 1971.
