Accessories
Threaded stud
Eaton uses a threaded stud with its Cooper Power series BOL-TE connector or splices to connect reducing well plugs, deadbreak tap plugs, connecting plugs, and insulating plugs to other components or to apparatus bushings.
Threaded stud made of aluminum or optional copper
Insulating plug
A 1-inch socket and torque wrench are required to tighten the insulating plug into a de-energized dead break connector and mating apparatus. Refer to Installation Instruction Sheet MN650005EN for details.
A capacitive test point allows circuit testing without disturbing the bolted connection. The 1-inch hex head allows the easy assembly of the connector and mating apparatus. Semi-conducting EPDM rubber cap fits over the test point for a waterproof seal and dead front shielding.
Insulating plug
Connecting plug (EPDM rubber)
A 5/16-inch hex wrench is used to tighten the connecting plug into a de-energized dead break connector or mating apparatus. Refer to Installation Instruction Sheet MN650005EN for details.
The semi-conducting collar provides continuity with a semi-conducting shield of EPDM rubber of mating parts.
The versatile design can be used for connecting two or more 600 A dead break connectors or, with a bushing extender, to ease cable training by increasing the distance between an apparatus front place and 600 A connector.
Compression connector
Compression connectors are available in all aluminum or friction welded coppertop designs, aluminum with unthreaded holes, and coppertop with either threaded or unthreaded holes. See Table 3 and Table 4 for proper application. All connectors have aluminum crimp barrels and are designed for use with either aluminum or copper conductors.

Cable adapter
The molded cable adapter is available in sizes to fit cables from 0.875 to 2.36 inches in diameter (22.2 to 49.9 mm). Molded of high-quality peroxide EPDM cured insulation and semi-conductive rubber to provide stress relief for the terminated cable.
These adapters are for use on BOL-T, BT-TAP connector systems, as well as Eaton’s Cooper Power series T-OP II and PUSH-OP connector systems. To select the correct adapter, determine the minimum and maximum diameter over insulation for the cable as shown in Figure 1. Then reference Table 6 to select the adapter whose range completely covers the minimum and maximum diameters. Complete the catalog number CA625_ by determining the cable range code for digit 6.
Example
To order a cable adapter of 1.200 inches and a tolerance of
± 0.030 inch, determine the cable diameter range as follows:
1.200 – 0.030 = 1.170 minimum diameter
1.200 + 0.030 = 1.230 maximum diameter
Therefore, specify CA635J for 150 kV BIL, CA638J for 200 kV BIL.
