Video : Roxtec UG - Sealing Substation Cables Underground Against Constant Water Pressure
Roxtec UG Solutions - Cable Entry Seals For Underground Applications The Roxtec UG forms part of the range of cable entry seals from Roxtec and is designed for sealing cable entries in underground applications - this includes LV MV power cables in trefoil arrangement supplying 11kV and 33kV substations.
The Roxtec UG solution provides a long lasting seal against high pressure water ingress and is deal for use on underground cables entering through building, transformer or substation foundations.
The following film includes UK site footage of test installations where water tables were problematic for the utility. A number of different "traditional" seals had all failed over time due to the challenge of installing the seals under "running water" situations.
Roxtec UG prevents flooded substations and the consequential power outages caused by sub-standard cable duct sealing.
