SSC160 Plug-in/Plug-out Dry GIS and Transformer Termination
The G&W Electric Python SSC160 is a 138–500kV dry plug-in/plug-out termination for connecting transmission cable to gas-insulated substations and transformers, sold and supported in Texas and Oklahoma by Ryan Sales.
- 145-550kV IEC / 138-500kV IEEE
- plug-in/plug-out to 245kV IEC
- conductors 240-2500mm2 copper or aluminum
- IEC 62271-209
- IEC 60859
Overview
Python SSC style dry terminations connect solid dielectric cable to gas-insulated substations and transformers at up to 550kV IEC (500kV IEEE), with plug-in/plug-out versions to 245kV IEC. The dry design needs no oil filling, a translucent LSR stress cone allows on-site insulation verification, and a self-locking connection supports up to 5 meters of cable weight without clamping. The removable plug provides a visible circuit disconnect for safe testing and maintenance.
