and there shall be no standing water at the seals under normal conditions of installation.
The supplier shall provide appropriate documentation of the material used, the characteristics of aging, the
details of construction and assembly demonstrating the reliability of seals; the use of paints, enamels or similar
materials is not be considered sufficient to ensure the level of protection required.
Furthermore, special precautions must be taken to avoid the risk of corrosion resulting from contact of different
metals. All parts of ferrous material in contact with the air, including hardware, must be made of austenitic
stainless steel.

10.1.3 Heating
All the materials that make up the termination shall withstand the heating conditions expected during operation,
without having an adverse effect on their proper functioning of the termination or the cable.

10.1.4 Resistance to fire

10.2 TERMINATIONS
Terminations are composed by the following elements:

1. Shear bolt lug

2. Component to control the electric field
3. Main insulating housing
4. Metallic screen earthing connection
5. Greases and sealing compounds

Items 2 (component to control the electric field) and 3 (main insulating housing) of the above list shall be
assembled on the same single body.

It may be designed in order to ensure the following functions (e.g. through embedded sealing compounds):
 to seal the termination,
 to protect the junction of the metallic screen.

10.2.1 Shear bolt lug

The shear bolt lug shall be made of tin plated aluminum alloy suitable for both aluminum and copper cables
and shall be compliant with IEC 61238-1, Class A.
No additional hole (e.g. for inspection) shall be made. The shear bolts shall be made to break inside their
holes, assuring that no spike of any projection of material remain on the lug surface.

The lugs shall have a lock to assure the correct positioning of the conductor, even for the smaller sections.

The internal and external surface of the lugs shall not have sharp edges, spikes or deformities.

Lugs must be designed and constructed so that, when properly installed, the electrical resistance of the
connection is not greater than the equivalent resistance of the reference conductor.

It is allowed to use greases to improve the electrical contact between the lug and the cable conductor and
avoid corrosion as well as a sealing compound to fill screw cavities of the lug. In any case, the design of screw
cavities protection shall be so that no material is dispersed inside the termination during the cold shrinking
operation and/or in the installation.

13.1 GENERAL
Tests are classified into:

 Type tests
 Acceptance tests

They shall be carried out according to HD 629-1. Lugs shall be tested according to IEC 61238-1 class A.

13.2 TYPE TESTS

For each material code, type tests shall be carried out on a sample installed on cables with the maximum
section indicated in Table 8, Table 9, Table 10 and Table 11, respectively for Uo/U (Um) 12/20(24) kV indoor
and outdoor and 18/30(36) kV indoor and outdoor (e.g. 270096 shall be tested on a 240 mm 2 – 18/30(36) kV
cable and 270094 on a 240 mm2 12/20(24) kV cable).

For E-Distribuzione, E-Distributie Banat, E-Distributie Dobrogea and E-Distributie Muntenia, type tests shall be
carried out on both HPTE and XLPE insulated cables.

For Endesa Distribución code 200022 type tests shall be carried out using a 185 mm2 – 18/30(36) kV cable.

Type tests shall be carried out at the maximum rated voltage level prescribed for the termination (i.e. 12/20(24)
kV or 18/30(36) kV).

The lugs shall be tested both for their maximum and minimum section, according to IEC 61238-1, class A.

Insulating materials shall be tested for resistance to tracking and erosion according to IEC 60587, with 3.5 kV
test voltage.

The Supplier shall declare the resistance to fire of the main insulating housing according to IEC 60695-11-10
or another equivalent standard.

13.2.1 EXPIRATION TEST

An expiration test shall be performed in order to verify the capability of the termination to maintain its properties
during its life according to the expiry date declared by the manufacturer.
The test shall be performed of a new termination and on a termination of the same lot aged 7 days at 65°C in
oven in expanded stage (to simulate 2 years of storage at 35°C of mean temperature).

After ageing, the new termination and the aged termination are put in expanded stage at +5°C during 24h. After
that cooling phase, the terminations are installed on the minimum cross-section cable of their reference range.

Then, the following test sequence is applied:

13.2.2 UV RESISTANCE TEST FOR OUTDOOR TERMINATION

Outdoor terminations shall be tested according to the IEC 62217 2012 par 9.3.2 (1000 h).

13.2.3 ADDITIONAL TYPE TESTS

For each material code, the extension of compliance from maximum section to minimum section in the
reference range shall be verified on a cable having the minimum diameter over insulation (or lower) specified
in Table 8, Table 9, Table 10 and Table 11, by carrying out all the additional tests prescribed by HD 629-1,
table 10, taking into account that test No. 5 must be performed, additionally to prescribed conditions, also by
subjecting the samples to 63 cycles in water (to be performed according to HD 629-1, table 5, test No. 7).
Additional type tests shall be carried out at the maximum rated voltage level prescribed for the termination (i.e.
12/20(24) kV or 18/30(36) kV).

For E-Distribuzione, E-Distributie Banat, E-Distributie Dobrogea and E-Distributie Muntenia additional type
tests shall be carried out on both HPTE and XLPE insulated cables.

13.3 ACCEPTANCE TESTS

For each material code, acceptance tests shall be carried out using the smallest cable section (see Table 8,
Table 9, Table 10 and Table 11 for reference) for each rated voltage of the cable according to Table 3 (e.g.
270098 shall be tested on a 95 mm2 - 12/20(24) kV cable).
For Enel Distribución Peru acceptance tests shall be carried out using the smallest cable section with 12/20(24)
kV rated voltage3 (e.g. 6811484 shall be tested on a 95 mm2 – 12/20(24) kV).

Acceptance tests shall be carried out at the maximum rated voltage level prescribed for the cable (see Table
3).

The samples for the acceptance tests shall be selected from among the entire batch that was prepared for
testing even if made up of different material codes.

3 Tests performed on a 12/20(24) kV are considered sufficient to demonstrate compliance also for the
installation on a 8.7/15(17.5) kV cable with normal thickness insulation.
