Bushing Connection Animal Cover (BCAC)
TE Connectivity’s (TE) Raychem BCAC hot-stickable insulating cover is designed to prevent animal caused outages on pole-top transformer equipment ranging from 15 kV to 36 kV.
TE’s BCAC Insulating Cover range has been successfully eliminating outages from all types of animals for years. This cover has been designed to provide the same great protection with enhanced features.
The BCAC-5D cover uses a scissor action design to allow for live installations on bushing skirts, ranging in size from 1.7" (43 mm) through 2.7" (68 mm) in core diameter and 3.0" (75 mm) through 4.75" (120 mm) in shed diameter. The scissor action translates the force on contact with the bushing core to a rotating action that closes the cover around the bushing.
Superior high-voltage outdoor materials are used in the BCAC cover design. The rugged, non-tracking, UV-resistant polymer ensures long-term performance even in the most extreme environmental conditions.
Key Features:
- Reliable protection from animal-caused outages
- Fast and versatile installation
- High-performance materials for extreme durability
- Cover gripper attachment facilitates hot-stick installation from pole or bucket
- Step latching mechanism for craft-friendly installation
- REACH and RoHS compliant
