Sign up United States Patent 3595984 A tee connector for a pair
of power distribution cables and a rigid insulating bushing,
comprising a central housing having a pair of parallel-disposed
cable termination legs, and a relatively perpendicular leg that
is adapted to be directly coupled in watertight, voltage grading
relationship to a nonflexible transformer bushing. The housing
is capable of withstanding arcing and physical stresses so that
the tee connector may be disconnected from the transformer
without requiring deenergization of the cable-transformer
system. The tee connector is further provided with a conductive
coating disposed over its outer surface to equalize voltage
gradients, and it includes flexible sealing means for receiving
the cables in watertight relationship.  Application Number:
