Heavy duty connections were originally developed to be
used on reclaimed cable. The heavy duty connections use a
larger size connection cavity in the mold and a larger size
welding material than the equivalent standard duty
connection.
The larger size welding material supplies extra BTU’s to
melt the heavy oxide coating on the conductor and to
overcome some severe field conditions. Heavy duty
connections eliminate cutting the run conductor on certain
types of connections, reduce cable cleaning requirements
for old or reclaimed cable, and increase reliability under
adverse field conditions.
Heavy duty connections are increasingly being specified for
copper-coated steel conductor connections.
