The new way to connect medium voltage systems

Explore our systems
The world’s first Medium Voltage Connector System (MVCS) that maintains cable construction “end to end”, takes advantage of polymer materials, and facilitates both electrical power and single-mode fibre from the cable through the connector.

Restrained Connector System
(1 kV to 11 kV, up to 500 A)
The restrained system is designed for those operating environments where frequent connections and disconnections are required. A unique feature of the racking mechanism within CONNEC’s restrained system is the ability to disengage phase conductors whilst the racking system remains engaged.
  • Fire retardant antistatic (FRAS) body
  • Up to 50% lighter than comparable products
  • Allows circuit testing (live or dead) without separation

Bolted Connector System
(1 kV to 11 kV, up to 500 A)
In addition to the technological features that are standard across all products, CONNEC’s bolted system includes a “life-of-plug” coupler as a beneficial replacement for individual phase insulators that are prone to damage and replacement during actual use.

  • Contiguous phase earths – power cable construction maintained “end to end
  • Multi-channel, single mode fibre optics within the connector system
  • Impedance matching of connectors to power cables
  • Increased range of cable size fitment
  • Improved plug to receptacle engagement to increase conductor contact area, reduce surface wear, and so minimise operating temperatures
  • Universal 6-pin configuration (3 power, 3 auxiliaries)
  • Optimised spares inventory by standardising components across all products
  • Testing to ex-certification as the “gold standard” in electrical connector safety

About us

We are a team of highly engaged professionals working on a future technology that aims to reshape the connected world

Anglo American continues to work with Connec and Platinum Cables to develop and prove a fibre-optic communication solution whereby fibre-optic lines are fully encased within both the power cable and the coupler system. The availability of such a system will assist Anglo American greatly in its drive to implement remote mining in both roadway development and longwall extraction, which is consistent with mining industry aspirations.
