What is the difference between Hubbell loadbreak elbows and deadbreak T-bodies?

Loadbreak elbows are designed and tested for switching operations at 200 A or less and connect to apparatus bushings on the 200 A IEEE 386 interface.

Deadbreak T-bodies are fully shielded 600 A connectors for terminating and splicing main feeder circuits on 600 A apparatus bushings; they are de-energized before connection. A loadbreak reducing tap plug adds a 200 A loadbreak interface to the back of a T-body.

What standards does Hubbell Power Systems MV equipment meet?

Hubbell separable connectors are built to IEEE 386. Ohio Brass surge arresters are built to IEEE C62.11, and Ohio Brass insulators to the ANSI C29 series.

Grounding connections for substation use are qualified to IEEE 837. Exact ratings and standards are confirmed per quote.
