Analysis of the causes of the problem can be roughly divided into the following categories: mechanical damage, insulation moisture, aging of the insulating medium, poor manufacturing process, etc., but analysis of the root causes of these problems found that they are all problems with interface insulation. Therefore, the development of a new type of non-interface insulation joint form can avoid the above problems. The solution described in the present invention is to design an integrated cable joint sleeve that uses air insulation instead of interface insulation epoxy casting. Summary of the invention

[0028] As shown in the figure, a new type of air-insulated cable joint sleeve structure for a ring main unit is provided, wherein the sleeve structure is an integrated sleeve including a grounding shielding net 4, a conductive rod 3, an insert, a cable air chamber 102, and an arrester air chamber 101; the conductive rod is an integrated conductive rod in the shape of the letter F, and one of its two horizontal branches is provided at the end with a first contact seat 106 for connecting the cable in the cable air chamber, and the other end is provided with a second contact seat 103 for connecting the lightning arrester in the lightning arrester air chamber; the first contact seat and the second contact seat are both provided with high-voltage shielding rings, which are respectively used to make the electric field in the cable air chamber and the lightning arrester air chamber uniform, so that the cable air chamber and the lightning arrester air chamber form air insulation structures at the first contact seat and the second contact seat.

[0029] Inserts include M10 nut inserts and M8 inserts5.

[0030] The one-piece sleeve is an one-piece structure cast by epoxy material, and a metal layer for achieving full shielding of the accessible surface is sprayed on its surface.

[0031] The vertical branch of the integrated conductive rod in the shape of letter F is used to connect the copper busbar inside the gas box of the ring main unit.

[0032] The ground shielding net is welded with grounding points 107 along its circumferential direction for leading out test lines.

The metal layer is sprayed on the surface to achieve full shielding of the accessible surface and reliable grounding. One end is fixed to the air box through a flange, and the end is fixed to the copper rod (conductive rod 3). The air cavity and the cable terminal are assembled together to form a touchable, pluggable, fully insulated and fully sealed structure.
