Overview
3M™ 5516A Series Cold Shrink QS-III Splice Kit is a 15kV class inline splice designed to join tape shield, wire shield, UniShield® or longitudinally corrugated shielded power cables. The cold shrink design fits type MV-90 cables with aluminum conductors while ensuring a quick installation and excellent cable size transitions. The kit is 15,000 amps-rated for faults current protection.
3M™ 5516A Series Cold Shrink QS-III Splice Kit has a computer-aided design that provides a compact size and optimal distribution of the electrical field. The cold shrink splice body has a specially formulated silicone rubber construction to ensure good high and low temperature performance. The cold shrink jacketing with EPDM rubber construction provides physical protection. It is perfect for inline splicing, feeder and distribution circuits, size transition splicing, transitions from shielded to neutral power cables, direct burial installations and submerged locations. The kit meets or exceeds class-rating requirements of IEEE 404 standards.
