What is MV IPC Connector?

MV IPC connector, short for Medium Voltage Insulation Piercing Connector, is a specialized electrical connector designed to tap into or connect medium voltage aerial bundled cable up to 36KV without the need to strip the insulation from the conductor.

MV IPCs Applications:

• Overhead medium voltage ABC lines
• Renewable energy installations
• Power distribution systems
• Urban and rural power grid extensions

What MV IPC connectors does Jera Line have?

Jera Line is a leading manufacturer for low and medium voltage cable connector, this connectors are researched and designed by us, and we produce high-performance MV IPC connectors that comply with international standards EN 50483 testing scopes. 

The following are Jera Line’s main models of MV IPC connectors.

Item No.	Main line, mm²	Branch line, mm²	Maximum Voltage, KV	Torque, N*m
ZOP-61	35-185	35-185	36	16
ZOP-62	70-240	70-240	36	18
ZOP-261	35-185	35-185	36	18
ZOP-262	70-240	70-240	36	18
ZOP-61-G	35-185	70-120	36	18
ZOP-62-G	240-300	70-120	36	21(±2)

Key features:

1. Easy Installation: the installation only to insert the piercing plate into the conductors without stripping the insulation, it doesn’t require any tool, only shear-head bolts or torque nut for consistent tightening force.
2. Medium Voltage Rated: It designed for voltage up to 36 kV, suitable for MV overhead distribution lines.
3. Torque-Controlled Shear Head Bolts: Ensures proper tightening force during installation, only if the bolt has sheared off, the required torque has been achieved.
4. Stronger contact teeth: Jera Line produce longer and thicker teeth in MV IPC connectors
5. Harsh Environmental Resistance: Resistant to UV, salt spray, and corrosion, with no need for frequent maintenance.
6. Multi-Conductor Compatibility: Jera Line offers a variety of MV insulation piercing connectors compatible with various conductor sizes.
7. Competitive price: Jera Line’s location is in China with organized production process, with small brand cost cut advantage.
