Editor’s Choice Elastimold ComboT Integral Separable Connectors Provides Short Elbow Stack Height Elastimold ComboT Integral Separable Connectors from Thomas & Betts accommodates multiple cables in one connector, provides short elbow stack height, which eliminates the need to modify or replace entire enclosures. As loads grow in underground distribution systems, so does the necessity to connect two underground power cables to one common connection point within existing switchgear. Most of these connections use two 600 amp T-body elbows stacked one behind the other, which occupies more space in the switchgear cabinet. Often, there is not enough space to accommodate the additional connectors, which leads to costly modifications to the switchgear cabinet and vault, if not replacement. An additional benefit is more operating clearance for linemen in vaults, which makes installation safer and more effective. The Elastimold ComboT Integral Separable Connectors’ design, which features a simple connection system with fewer interfaces, eliminates blind assembly and minimizes the chance of cross threading. Using standard 600 or 900-series studs, it is installed with standard assembly tools. Its internal hex broach ensures the proper installation torque. The Elastimold ComboT Integral Separable Connectors’ simplicity reduces installation time and the risk of costly installation errors. Elastimold ComboT Integral Separable Connectors feature red provider backbone transport (PBT) interfaces for 15 kV reduc- ing taps and blue for 25 kV reducing taps in compliance with IEEE 386. The 25 kV reducing taps are vented to prevent partialvacuum flashover. Videx Introduces CyberKey Vault 20 FX Videx, Inc. has released a new version of the CyberKey Vault 20, the CyberKey Vault 20 FX. The redesign features a sleek new look with weatherized input modules and an embedded Flex System Hub for improved performance. “The CyberKey Vault 20 FX is our most advanced key control cabinet yet,” said James McGowan, vice president of Sales and Marketing, Videx. “We built on the award winning original design and added extra durability and speed to meet the needs of demanding end-users.” The Vault 20 FX is an intelligent key cabinet designed to manage, program and dispense CyberKey smart keys. The keys are stored un-programmed and locked in the cabinet until an RFID card and/or PIN code is presented to the cabinet. After reading the card and/or accepting the PIN, the CyberKey Vault programs a CyberKey with the individual’s permissions. Keys are programmed with access privileges for each user, detailing which electronic locks it can open and when. An audit record of all events is stored in both the locks and the keys. Each time a key is used at a lock, a record of the lock ID, date, and time is stored in the key, and a record of the key ID, date and time is stored in the lock.
