118BKA RANGE – 11,000 volts, 800 amps, 8 bolt, open cut coupler
The 118BKA range is guided with AS/NZS1300 that requires 8 bolts to join two couplers.
The new design helps improve OH&S with added handles and an improved manufacturing process. The material is also stronger, which allows the design to join the face and body to form one casting. This creates a strong uniform casting and protects the phase insulators.
This was the first design with full phase to earth segregation in Australia in 1995.
