Abstract

A cold shrinkable termination has an electric power cable, an insulation body, and a stress control tube. The electric power cable has a conductor core, an insulation layer covering the conductor core, and a conductive shielding layer covering the insulation layer. The insulation body has a first end portion and an opposite second end portion. The stress control tube is disposed in the insulation body adjacent to the second end portion of the insulation body. The stress control tube has a first tube portion directly overlapped on the insulation layer of the electric power cable, and a second tube portion directly overlapped on the conductive shielding layer of the electric power cable and extending a predetermined length thereon when the cold shrinkable termination is mounted on the electric power cable.
