mouser.com/te-connectivity 15 For this project, the engineers in charge of the energy supply structure requested screened separable connectors that would enable them to connect large cross-section cables in their unique and very compact switchgears. Because of the challenging environmental conditions of the offshore wind farm, they were looking for connectors that could withstand extreme temperatures in an environment characterized by its high humidity and salinity. A customized approach was needed to address this technical challenge and ensure the reliable electrical performance of the offshore wind farm. THE SOLUTION Based on more than 60 years of experience, TE Connectivity's experts offered a complete package of customized switchgear connect solutions that meet the unique technical requirements of the wind farm: • RSTI Screened Separable base and coupling connectors • RSTI Screened Separable connectors with surge arrestors • RSTI Dead End Plugs designed to face environmental challenges during turbine installation TE Connectivity's Raychem RSTI Screened Separable Connectors adapted easily to the customer's cable type and size. Their compact design and the flexibility of their silicone components facilitated the installation of the connectors, reducing installation time and errors. THE OUTCOME TE Connectivity's experts identified the right solution and reduced project management time with end-to-end customer service, including local language support, on-site training, and installation supervision. By completing another project in offshore environments, TE Connectivity reinforced its role as a key provider of switchgear connect solutions for the renewable energy market. TE Connectivity's customized switchgear connectors, along with TE´s high-level technical support and training, provide the ideal solution for customer requirements.
