The upper level at which a 15-kilovolt rated termination can withstand surges, such as lightning, is ? crest.

110 Kv

There are ? common termination types.

5

The upper level at which a termination can withstand surges, such as lightning surges, is known by the initials ? .

BIL

Without stress control, the cable's electric field becomes very concentrated and the resulting voltage stress is high enough to break down the air. This break down is referred to as a partial discharge or ? .

Corona

The way to shrink a Quick Term II Termination onto the cable is to slide the termination body onto the cable and remove the core. Starting with the loose end, pull while unwinding ? .

Counter-clockwise

A termination's ? distance is the surface distance between a conductor and ground, also referred to as the string distance.

Creepage

An IEEE Class 1 Termination does not provide a seal to the external environment and must be sealed with two layers of tape.

False

Tape termination is not one of the common termination types because it takes too long to apply.

False

In addition to the termination's voltage stress, two conditions are necessary for tracking. One condition is contamination and the other is ? .

Moisture

The function of the bottom seal on an IEEE Class 1 Termination is to provide a(n) ? to the cable jacket and ground wire.

Moisture seal

Some porcelain terminations are referred to as "potheads." A pothead performs sealing functions because it is filled with a(n) ? .

Potting compound

For additional protection, the termination's creepage path may be covered with ? tape.

Silicone

A(n) ? gradually increases the total thickness of insulation from the edge of the semi-conducting shield out to a certain point on the cable's insulation.

Stress cone

The type of stress control used in heat shrink terminations is a ? .

Stress control tube

The two functions of a termination insulator are to provide BIL protection against flashover damage and to provide ? protection for the cable's insulation.

Tracking

A basic (tubular) heat shrink termination for outdoor use can be upgraded by installing separate heat shrink skirt(s).

True

An IEEE Class 1 Termination has two seals located at the top and bottom.

True

One function that an IEEE Class 1 Termination provides is electrical stress control for the cable shield terminus.

True

Terminations are categorized as live-front connections.

True

The type of IEEE termination that provides stress control and should be used in a clean, dry environment is the Class ? .

Type 3

One function that an IEEE Class 1 Termination provides is ? between the high voltage conductor and ground.

external leakage protection

Three problems that are associated with a non-shielded termination include ? , electrical connection of the conductor, and physical protection of the cable insulation.

mechanical support

The two best insulator materials for providing cable tracking protection are silicone rubber and ? .

porcelain
