Cold shrink joints for XLPE MV cable under IEC 60502-4 standard

Medium voltage (MV) power cable systems rely not only on the quality of the cable itself, but also on the performance of accessories such as joints and terminations. Among the available technologies, cold shrink joints have become a preferred solution for XLPE insulated MV cables due to their reliability, installation safety, and long-term performance. Let’s explore the role of cold shrink joints in MV cable systems and how they comply with the requirements of IEC 60502-4.

What Are Cold Shrink Joints?

Cold shrink joints are pre-expanded elastomeric cable joints that shrink to their original size after the removable inner core is extracted. Unlike heat shrink technology, cold shrink joints:

  • Do not require flames, torches, or external heat sources
  • Provide uniform radial pressure on the cable insulation and screen
  • Reduce installation errors caused by uneven heating or overheating

The main materials used are silicone rubber or EPDM, both offering excellent die

IEC 60502-4 specifies the requirements and test methods for accessories used with power cables rated from 6 KV to 30 KV (Um = 7.2 KV to 36KV), including:

  • Joints
  • Terminations
  • Cable connectors

For cold shrink joints to comply with IEC 60502-4, they must pass strict type tests and routine tests, such as:

  • AC voltage withstand test
  • Partial discharge measurement
  • Heating cycle test under voltage
  • Impulse voltage test
  • Mechanical and environmental aging tests
