STANDARD LOW VOLTAGE BUSHING ASSEMBLIES 1.2 KV CLASS, 30 KV BIL EXTERNALLY CLAMPED TYPE


Technical Specification

Product: Low Voltage Bushing Assembly
Application: Liquid-Filled Transformer

1. Operating Conditions

  • Electrical ratings are based on installation in a liquid-filled transformer, with the lower end of the bushing submerged below the oil level during operation.

2. Construction and Materials

  • Insulating Body: Constructed from high-quality, electrical-grade wet-process porcelain for superior dielectric and mechanical strength.
  • Finish: Standard gray glaze (alternative colors available upon request).
  • Mounting Hole: 3.06 in (77.7 mm)
  • Anti-Rotation Design:
    • The bushing is keyed to a two-piece clamp.
    • The connector is keyed to the porcelain insulator to prevent rotation during installation and service.

3. Gasket Options

  • Standard Gasket Material: Nitrile (Buna-N)
  • Optional Gasket Material: Cork and rubber composite
    • To specify this option, add suffix “C” to the part number when ordering.

4. Terminal (Spade) Assembly

  • Standard Material: 95% minimum conductivity copper
  • Finish: Tin plated for corrosion protection and improved conductivity.
  • Optional Materials: Lower conductivity copper alloys (e.g., brass, bronze) available upon request at a discounted price.

5. Design Features

Provides mechanical stability, electrical reliability, and ease of installation in transformer applications.

Engineered for externally clamped mounting configurations.
