POWER BUSHING ASSEMBLIES 8.7 KV CLASS, 95 KV BIL, 11.5″ CREEP

Technical Specification

Product: Porcelain Bushing Assembly
Application: Transformer, Switchgear, Entrance, and Special Power Apparatus

Description

These bushings are designed for use in transformers, switchgear, entrance, and special power apparatus applications. The electrical ratings are based on operation in a liquid-filled transformer, with the lower end of the bushing installed below the oil level.

Construction

  • Sealing: Bushings are fully oil- and watertight at both the top terminal and mounting flange.
  • Porcelain: Manufactured from high-quality electrical-grade wet-process porcelain, fully gray glazed for superior insulation and surface protection.
  • Top Skirts: Designed for outdoor applications, providing enhanced weather resistance.
  • Flanges and Washers: Constructed from non-magnetic materials to minimize electrical interference.
  • Disc Spring Assembly: A disc spring maintains constant gasket pressure on the top terminal, compensating for thermal expansion and contraction of the copper stud.

Gasket Options

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