Centroid Cover
Centroid Cover
Silicone Electrical Conductor Line insulating Sleeve are designed to increase system reliability by
reducing wildlife related outages. System interruptions and equipment failures caused by wildlife and incidental
vegetation contact can be minimized by the use of Conductor Covers. With economy developed, environment
pollution is getting worse, the situation of power substation insulation and protection is serious, especially for the
old substation. Pollution flashover, raining flashover, line trip because of icing, small animals, uncovered busbar,
all caused to damages and injury accidents. More and more power substations choose silicone rubber overhead
line cover to insulate the substation
The covers are made with a full-length extruded silicone rubber supplied in a reel in a flat format. The
edge of the product is formed to lock together when installed on an electrical conductor. The installation requires
dispensing of silicone sealant in the lock and pressing the two ends together to lock, forming a circular cover over
the bare. The covers are offered in thickness appropriate to voltage class for use up to 220KV.
Advantages of Silicone Electrical Conductor Line Insulating Sleeve (Press Lock Type) SECLIS-PLT
© Excellent thermal conductivity of silicone rubber cover, can effectively reduce the operating temperature of the busbar, increase the carrying capacity to
solve the aging cracking due to temperature rise.
© Made of silicone rubber
© High resistance to aging and erosion
© Simple and fast installation, widely used in emergency repairs or temporary insulation protection of equipment.
Ÿ Anti-aging property of silicone rubber cover. Silicone rubber overhead line cover span life can up to 20 years, which greatly reduces the cost of recoating, power outages
and blackouts caused economic losses.
Ÿ The installation is simple and fast, and protection cable cover is widely used for insulation protection in bare lines of electrified railways and substations
Ÿ Subway safety purpose (bare wire)
Ÿ Safety purpose at construction site(near power lines)
Ÿ Protect birds against electrocution & outage prevention.
Ÿ Providing insulation for catenaries, droppers and conductors against contact from trees or wildlife.
