Abstract: Apparatus for a connecting point between high-voltage cables, each cable having a conductor, inner conductive layer, insulation, outer conductive layer, and a sheath over the outer conductive layer and in which the conductors, from which the surrounding layers have been removed, are conductively connected to one another. The arrangement has electrical screening elements and an integral elongated sleeve body, composed of elastic insulating material and a through-hole. The sleeve body has at its axial ends, which are intended for the cable to pass through, electrical control funnels which abut the outer conductive layers, from which the sheaths have been removed. The internal diameters of the through-hole in the sleeve body, at its axial ends, are for its use in a connecting point of cables, having an external diameter of their insulation which differs by at least 10 mm, different in a defined manner and adapted to the different external diameters.

Abstract: An apparatus is specified for a junction point between two electrical high-voltage cables which each have an electrical conductor (1, 2), an inner conductive layer which rests thereon, insulation (5, 6) which surrounds the conductive layer, and an outer conductive layer (7, 8) which rests on the insulation, as well as a sheath which is fitted over the outer conductive layer. The conductors (1, 2), from which the surrounding layers have been removed, are electrically conductively connected to one another and the junction point of the two conductors is surrounded by electrical screening elements and an integral, elongated sleeve body (14), which is composed of elastic insulating material and has a through-hole, which sleeve body is equipped at its two axial ends, which are intended for the cable to pass through, with electrical control funnels (15, 16) which, in the fitted position, rest on the outer conductive layers (7, 8), from which the sheaths have been removed, of the two cables.

Abstract: The method of laying and clamping an elastic tubular covering on an element consists in using a rigid tubular support mounted on the element and previously provided with said covering expanded thereon. In the laying method and the corresponding assembly, flexible associated auxiliary means that are strong in traction and not stretchable are provided for temporarily mechanically securing the expanded covering on said support to said element on which said covering is thus mounted and positioned. The invention is applicable to use at an end of an electric cable or at a junction thereof.

Abstract: The tubular support for installing a contractable elastic sleeve comprises a rigid tube covered on its outside by a film having a low coefficient of friction. It also includes guide and drive means for the film which is mounted so as to be completely free relative to the tube, which means guide and drive the film around a front end and against the inside surface of the tube. The support is applicable to installing a elastic sleeve on a cylindrical element.
