Elastimold 160DRG Insulated Cap/Ground Lead, 200A Loadbreak, 15kV

The Elastimold 160DRG is an insulated cap with integral grounding lead, engineered for 200A loadbreak applications on 15kV underground distribution systems. Built to seal and de-energize unused loadbreak bushings on switchgear, transformers, and other equipment, the 160DRG provides a safe, insulated termination point while maintaining a reliable ground path for de-energized loadbreak interfaces. Rated for 15kV class systems and sized to mate directly with 200A loadbreak bushings, this cap/ground lead assembly is a standard component in underground residential and commercial distribution (URD/UD) networks where unused elbow or bushing positions must be capped off safely and effectively.

Key Features

  • 200A Loadbreak Rating: Designed to interface with 200A loadbreak bushings for compatibility with standard underground distribution equipment.
  • 15kV Voltage Class: Rated for 15kV distribution systems, matching the voltage class of the loadbreak equipment it is installed on.
  • Insulated Cap Design: Provides a fully insulated termination over unused loadbreak bushing positions, helping maintain system integrity and operator safety.
  • Integral Grounding Lead: Built-in ground lead allows the capped bushing to be properly grounded, supporting safe de-energized conditions.
  • Loadbreak Compatibility: Configured specifically for loadbreak-style equipment, consistent with Elastimold's loadbreak elbow and bushing product family.
  • Simple Field Installation: Designed for straightforward installation by qualified electrical personnel onto unused 200A loadbreak bushing positions.

Elastimold 160DRG – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Elastimold 160DRG fit a 200A loadbreak bushing on a padmount transformer?
Yes. The 160DRG is sized to mate directly with 200A loadbreak bushings and is rated 15kV class, so it caps unused loadbreak positions on padmount transformers, switchgear, and similar underground distribution equipment. It will not fit a 600A deadbreak interface, that is a different bushing geometry and needs a deadbreak-style cap.
2) What is the difference between an insulated cap and an insulated cap with a grounding lead?
A plain insulated cap just seals and insulates the unused bushing. The 160DRG adds an integral grounding lead so the capped bushing can be bonded to ground, which is what crews need when the position has to be held in a verified de-energized, grounded state rather than simply covered. If you only need weather and dielectric protection on a spare position and no ground path, a standard loadbreak insulated cap is the simpler part.
3) Can the 160DRG be used on a 25kV or 35kV system?
No. It is a 15kV class component and should only be installed on equipment of the same voltage class. For 25kV or 35kV loadbreak positions you need a cap/ground lead rated to that class.
4) Is the 160DRG a switching device or just a cap?
It is a cap, not a switching device. The loadbreak interface it mates to is rated for load-break switching with an elbow, but the 160DRG itself is installed on a bushing position that is being taken out of service and grounded. Installation is a straightforward field operation for qualified medium-voltage personnel on an unused 200A loadbreak bushing.
5) What part number do I order for an Elastimold 15kV 200A cap with ground lead?
Order Elastimold model 160DRG. It ships as a single configuration, so there are no handing, length, or finish options to specify, just the one part number for the 15kV, 200 amp loadbreak application.
6) Can I use the 160DRG to cap a spare bushing in a URD subdivision loop?
That is exactly the use case. On underground residential and commercial distribution networks, spare or unused loadbreak elbow positions on transformers and switchgear get capped off so the bushing stays insulated and sealed, and the integral ground lead lets the position be grounded for crew safety during work on the loop.
7) What material is the Elastimold 160DRG made from?
EPDM rubber, which is the standard elastomer for underground distribution accessories because it holds its dielectric properties and seal in buried vault and padmount enclosures exposed to moisture and temperature swings. It is made in the United States.
