Elastimold ELA Series 15kV, 200A Loadbreak Elbow Connector

The Elastimold ELA Series Loadbreak Elbow Connector is a 15kV, 200A separable-connector elbow engineered for dependable terminations on medium-voltage underground distribution systems. Built to the 15/35kV voltage class shared across the ELA family, this loadbreak-rated elbow uses a fully shielded design that allows safe connect/disconnect of energized underground circuits using standard loadbreak switching procedures. Lug options within the ELA Series include bimetallic 1-hole (BIMET 1H) terminations sized for stranded conductors such as 2/0 STR, supporting underground residential distribution (URD) and padmount applications. As part of the Elastimold separable connector line, this loadbreak elbow connector is built to the manufacturer's standard dimensional and electrical specifications for utility-grade medium-voltage service.

Key Features

  • Voltage Class: 15kV rated construction, part of the 15/35kV voltage class shared across the ELA elbow family for medium-voltage underground distribution applications.
  • Amperage Rating: 200A continuous current loadbreak elbow configuration.
  • Loadbreak Elbow Design: LR-configuration elbow enables safe connection and disconnection of energized underground circuits using standard loadbreak switching procedures.
  • Lug Configuration: Bimetallic 1-hole (BIMET 1H LUG) termination option for reduced galvanic corrosion risk at the connection point.
  • Conductor Compatibility: Lug sized to accept stranded conductors such as 2/0 STR for proper mechanical fit and electrical continuity.
  • Series Identification: Elastimold ELA Series separable connector engineered to the manufacturer's standard dimensional and electrical specifications.

Elastimold 162LR-A – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What conductor size does the Elastimold 162LR-A loadbreak elbow accept?
The 162LR-A uses a bimetallic 1-hole lug sized for stranded conductors up to 2/0 STR. If your cable is larger than 2/0 or is solid rather than stranded, this lug configuration is the wrong termination for it.
2) Can the Elastimold 162LR-A be used on a 25kV or 35kV underground circuit?
It is a 15kV rated elbow within the 15/35kV ELA voltage class, so apply it on 15kV class circuits. For a 25kV or 35kV system you need the elbow built for that class, not the 15kV 162LR-A.
3) Can I disconnect the Elastimold 162LR-A while the underground circuit is energized?
Yes. It is a loadbreak (LR) elbow, fully shielded, so it can be connected and disconnected on an energized circuit using standard loadbreak switching procedures with a hotstick. A deadbreak elbow does not permit that and requires the circuit be de-energized first.
4) What current rating does the 162LR-A elbow carry, and is it enough for a padmount transformer tap?
200A continuous. That covers typical URD and padmount transformer or switchgear terminations on 200A loadbreak bushing interfaces. Circuits sized above 200A need a 600A class deadbreak connector instead.
5) Why a bimetallic lug on the Elastimold 162LR-A instead of all copper or all aluminum?
The lug is bimetallic, which puts the right metal on each side of the joint so you are not making a direct aluminum-to-copper connection. That reduces galvanic corrosion risk where the conductor lands, which matters in buried and vault environments.
6) Is the 162LR-A a single part number or does it come in options?
It ships as one configuration, model 162LR-A: 15kV, 200A loadbreak elbow with the BIMET 1-hole lug for 2/0 STR. There are no finish or size choices to specify on the order.
7) Where is the Elastimold ELA Series 200A loadbreak elbow typically used?
Underground residential distribution work, padmount transformer and switchgear terminations, underground feeder and cable connections, and medium-voltage loadbreak switching in utility and industrial distribution.
