AirRIP® flex Cable Termination Bushing (CTB)
Proven Bushing Technology for Safer HV Cable Termination
Custom‑engineered outdoor bushing technology designed for seamless integration across modern high‑voltage cable termination systems.
AirRIP® flex Cable Termination Bushing (CTB) is a dry outdoor bushing that enables safer high-voltage cable termination. Built on proven, capacitive-grade RIP bushing technology, it delivers stable electric-field control under demanding AC and DC operating conditions. Its standardized plug-in interface supports faster, more predictable installation while helping to reduce downtime and on-site variability—supporting safer, cleaner, and more sustainable transmission infrastructure.
Why AirRIP® flex CTB
As transmission networks continue to transition toward cable‑based infrastructure, the performance and reliability of the interfaces that connect high‑voltage cables to substations and overhead lines become increasingly critical. Traditional oil‑filled and gas‑insulated designs introduce safety risks, environmental exposure, and installation complexity that are increasingly misaligned with modern grid requirements. AirRIP® flex CTB addresses key operational and environmental challenges associated with traditional cable-termination interfaces by replacing fluid‑based concepts with a solid‑insulated, dry-bushing design.
- Enables safer high‑voltage cable termination without oil or gas
- Reduces operational risk, maintenance effort, and environmental exposure
- Supports predictable installation and commissioning
- Designed for long‑term reliability in demanding outdoor environments
