Hi,

Do wee need to use stress cones (Termination kit) for MV Tray cables 4.16kV and 23kV.

Please share your knowledge and recommendation.
thanks,
Kani

Yes, Cable termination (stress cones ) for 4.16 & 23 kV system should be installed to manage the excess of electric fields created at the cable end.
Below is an example of the EMF Stress release with & without cable termination.
