Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrical external shielding for an electrical high-voltage connector, particu ⁇ larly for mean-voltage applications in the high-current range.
- the present invention further relates to an electrical connecting unit for a distribution of electric energy for - as the case may be, preferably SF 6 -gas-insulated - mean- voltage applications, internal or external high-current ap ⁇ plications, comprising an electrical high-voltage connector and an electrical external shielding according to the inven ⁇ tion .
- Electrical high-voltage connectors for mean- and high-voltage applications such as shielded (angular) plugs, adapter (plug) connectors and cable terminations comprise an electrical screen as an external shielding of the high-voltage connector or, respectively, of its connector body, the screen being provided externally and in most cases sputtered or sprayed on.
- additional me ⁇ tallic housings may be utilized into which the high-voltage connector may be inserted. It is the object of such high- voltage connectors to have an electrically sufficiently con ⁇ ductive outer layer on the isolating connector body which un- der the respective environmental conditions roughly retains its properties, particularly an electrical resistance, over the entire period of use. Such periods of application usually amount to many years up to several decades.
- sputtered-on screens which are, however, mechanically more robust than sprayed-on screens, significantly increase the costs of the high-voltage connector since the material as well as a manufacturing proc ⁇ ess to be used take a comparatively long time and are conse ⁇ quently expensive.
- disposal costs have to be taken into account which are also expensive for sputtered-on screens since the disposal of such materials or, respec ⁇ tively, composites is complex.
- metal housings are in general an alterna ⁇ tive to inmoulded and sputtered-on external screens; however, being heavy cast or formed components, these may only guaran ⁇ tee a low laminar contact with the connector body of the high-voltage connector due to their mechanical rigidness. For this reason, a durable connection with good electrical con ⁇ ductivity has to be implemented in this case which signifi ⁇ cantly increases the mounting costs apart from the already high costs for a metal housing.
- the smallest a- chievable wall thicknesses of metal housings are over- dimensioned for such applications.
- electrical high- voltage connectors Due to the demanded high endurance limits, electrical high- voltage connectors have to be resistant to the chemicals which may be present in the respective environment as well as to mechanical stress, which particularly concerns the outer screen. This is particularly a problem in the case of thin, i.e. inter alia sprayed-on screens.
- the manufac ⁇ turing of a high-voltage connector should involve small cycle times and the high-voltage connector itself should be low in weight.
- the high-voltage connector should pass what is referred to as a nail test, i.e. make sure that the high- voltage connector does not erroneously appear to be function ⁇ ing after a defect.
- a disadvantage de ⁇ scribed above preferably with reference to a respective ap ⁇ plication is to be avoided by means of the invention.
- the object of the present invention is solved by means of an electrical external shielding for an electrical high-voltage connector, particularly for mean-voltage applications in the high-current range, according to claim 1; and by means of an electrical connecting unit for distributing electric energy for - as the case may be, preferably SF 6 -gas-insulated - mean-voltage applications, internal or external applications in the high-current range, according to claim 9.

- the high- voltage connector may comprise an external shielding which is preferably configured as a screen deposited, particularly sprayed-on or sputtered-on, on an electrically insulating connector body of the high-voltage connector. Other methods for depositing such a screen configured as an external connector-body shielding may of course be used.
- a more inexpensive prod ⁇ uct is provided according to the present invention.
- the cost reduction is a result of providing an alternative to a thick, sputtered-on screen, wherein the high-voltage connector itself does not have to comprise any electrical screen or only a thin electrical screen on an outer surface.
- short cycle times and lower disposal costs than in the case of high-voltage connectors having a sputtered-on screen may be achieved during manufacturing.
- the external shielding according to the invention is suitable for refitting all in- stalled and uninstalled high-voltage connectors.

After mounting, the shielding braid 220 may be made to contract to result in a tightly fitting contact of the shield cover 200 and/or the shielding braid 220 with the high- voltage connector 10.
