Abstract
A connector for connecting a power cable with solid insulation to medium-voltage equipment comprising a connection device arranged in an angular housing. The connector comprises a screwable pin contact which is connected to the cable core. The device comprises a guide sleeve, fixed in the angular housing, with an extension made in the shape of a jaw, into which sleeve the cable core is inserted, and a clamping block, into which the pin contact is threaded. The inner end of the pin contact makes contact with the jaw such that, when tightening the pin contact, the cable core is squeezed between the clamping block and the jaw. The angular housing comprises an outer semiconducting layer, the end of which, connecting onto the cable, is capable of being folded up. The connector is removable fixed to the medium-voltage equipment with a clamping device which is arranged in one piece of resilient wire.
