Abstract :
A new cold shrink termination developed by application of materials science and computer design optimization is presented. This new termination has improved electrical and environmental performance with a shorter length and simplified installation procedures. This paper describes the component materials, design, and electrical performance of a new cold shrink (elastically recoverable) termination
