Until recently, splicing underground transmission cable has been a delicate and time-consuming process. Now, pretested, factory-molded joints for 69-kV to 138 K-V solid-dielectric cables can be assembled quickly on site to yield connections that are as reliable as the cable itself. To produce mechanically and electrically sound splice components, however, it was necessary to extend the design criteria and manufacturing processes (including rubber compounding technology, rubber rheology, and injection molding) beyond the existing state of the art. The Electric Power Research Institute sponsored the research and development. 2 figures.
