Problems solved by technology

Similarly, precise and permanent alignment and fixation of the bushing relative to the casing may not be feasible as long as the mechanical connection between the conductors inside the casing and the bushing is not completed when the bushing is initially installed

Embodiment Construction

[0041] figure 1 A cross-sectional view of a bushing adapter 170 is schematically shown, which is attached to the bushing conductor 120 to form the bushing 100 . Bushing 100 also includes insulator 110, which may be formed from any suitable material, such as epoxy, which may be combined with other materials, as will also be discussed below. The insulator 110 surrounds and is in mechanical contact with the bushing conductor 120 so as to form a mechanically robust component of the bushing 100 . As previously mentioned, bushing 100 and thus bushing adapter 170 may be suitably sized and configured for use in high power applications requiring transmission of electrical power in the range of tens of kilowatts to hundreds of kilowatts and beyond. For example, such power may need to be transferred in mobile applications, such as electric vehicles, such as trains, cars, trucks, etc., or in other stationary applications, such as transformers, electric motors, or electrical machines gene...

Abstract

The present invention provides a bushing adapter, a bushing, for instance, in combination with the bushing adapter and a respective method, in which superior performance in terms of mechanical connectivity, installation and maintenance may be achieved by using a an operable fastening member within the bushing or the bushing adapter. The operable fastening member may be used for connecting to an external conductor while eliminating the requirement of a relative rotation of the bushing as a whole with respect to the external conductor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to contact technology and in particular to bushings and related components for providing a connection between an outer cable and an inner conductor of a housing. Background technique [0002] In many technical fields, electrical power must be provided by or to certain components, such as complex switches, transformers, motors, etc., which may often be at least partially located in suitable housings. On the other hand, outside the housing, the required power may be provided by or to one or more suitably sized cables connected to a corresponding power source or electrical component, where the power may be provided as AC or DC or both. Depending on the considered application, the corresponding electrical powers can range from tens of kilowatts to hundreds of kilowatts or even higher, requiring corresponding cable configurations in terms of cross-section and insulation properties. For example, high electrical power ...
