3M JOINTING SYSTEMS FOR POWER CABLE
RESIN PRESSURE METHOD (R.P.M)
Product Description
The resin pressure method (R.P.M.) jointing system is well proven and was designed to make fast and simple joints on XLPE or paper insulated cables.
This method is very versatile and adaptable to odd sized cable and different joint configurations like transition and branch joints. Applicable to a wide voltage range of cables from 1KV - 45KV. The R.P.M. joint is based on liquid tight tape mold built around the joint. It provides outstanding moisture resistance, tough mechanical properties and excellent electrical insulation.

All the components required to make a resin pressure splice are conveniently supplied in a kit for. Components such as Scotch No. 23 tape for insulating, Scotchcast P-3F Spacer tape to build around the joint, plastic vinyl tape to form the liquid-tight mould and a final overwrap of Scotch Restricting tape to retain the shape of the mold under-pressure as Scotchcast resin is pumped in from the E-4 Resin Pressure Gun. This two-part encapsulating resin is pre measured and packaged in 3M’s exclusive Unipak container for exact mixing ratios and to prevent contamination. When cured the resin will not run, ensuring a strong, dependable, high performance and long lasting joint.
