A terminal connection device for connecting an end of a medium- or high-voltage power cable to a connection point comprises a) an interface cable having first and second end portions, comprising an inner conductor and a conductive or semiconductive layer; b) a first stress control tube comprising a stress control element, and an insulating layer arranged around the stress control element, wherein the first stress control tube is mounted on the first end portion of the interface cable; c) a first cable connector for connecting the interface cable to the power cable, the first cable connector being connected to the second end portion of the interface cable; and d) one or more tubular shrinkable sleeves, at least a portion of one of the tubular shrinkable sleeves extending over at least a portion of the first stress control tube wherein the portion of the tubular shrinkable sleeve extending over at least a portion of the first stress control tube is shrunk down around at least a portion of the first stress control tube.

Terminal connection device for a power cable

A conductor assembly for a power network includes an inner conductor defining radial and axial directions, an insulating layer arranged around at least an axial section of the inner conductor, and a sensing electrode arranged radially outward of the insulating layer. The sensing electrode is operable as a first electrode of a sensing capacitor of a capacitive voltage sensor, in which sensing capacitor the inner conductor is operable as a second electrode. The conductor assembly further includes an electrically insulating spacer element arranged radially between the insulating layer and the sensing electrode.

Conductor assembly

A conductor assembly for a power network includes an inner conductor, an insulating layer arranged concentrically around the inner conductor, and a sensing electrode, arranged radially outward of the insulating layer, and operable as a first electrode of a sensing capacitor of a voltage sensor. The conductor assembly further includes a voltage pickup element having electrically conductive major surfaces, the first major surface being in a surface contact with the sensing electrode. The conductor assembly further includes an electrode wire, in electrical and mechanical contact with the voltage pickup element, for electrically connecting the voltage pickup element with an electric or electronic component disposed remote from the sensing electrode.
