Abstract
Connection between a high voltage electric cable and the bushing of a transformer is achieved by firstly terminating the cable using heat shrinkable insulation tubing and stress control material, and secondly push-fitting the terminated cable into an insulating elbow. Mechanical retention of the cable in the elbow also provides electrical connection therebetween, for subsequent connection on to the bushing.
