A high-voltage cable is fixed to the single leg of a 600-amp “T”connector, which in turn is coupled for non-removable engagement with an insulating bushing fixed to a wall of the apparatus housing it is to serve. A removable screw-applied link member selectively couples the remaining leg to the apparatus bushing whereby power is supplied to the apparatus only when the link is present and isolates the cable when it is absent. A bushing extender and novel contact extenders fix the positions of components and serve to align the two arms of the link. Each of the arms includes an externally threaded stud for engagement with the contact extenders which are positioned in the “T”leg and bushing extender such as to engage the studs before interface interference to assist and guide the screw assembly of such parts. By this system, the apparatus and cable can be tested, grounded and a visible break performed without moving the high-voltage cable.

A high voltage hot-stick operable screw-assembled connection system for selectively coupling together a source of high voltage and a high voltage cable comprising: a support member; an apparatus bushing mounted upon said support member and electrically coupled to a source of high voltage; a high voltage cable mounted upon said support member and electrically insulated therefrom and a selectively applicable screw-operated link member when applied in a first arrangement joining said apparatus bushing to said cable to apply high voltage thereto or, when not applied between said apparatus bushing and said cable, providing a visible separation between said bushing and said cable; said screw-operated link member comprising a first and a second housing assembly each containing a metallic insert, one of said first and said second housing assemblies screw coupled to said apparatus bushing and the other screw coupled to said high voltage cable and a conductive metal buss coupling said metallic inserts of said first and said second housing assemblies.
