Safety by Simplicity
Reliable power grids require safe junctions. Kabeldon
solutions are tried, tested and proven to be of world class
quality. With over a century of experience in the cable
accessory field, ABB sets the standard for cable accessories.
Then, now and in the future.
Reliable junctions
Modern society depends on reliable cable networks being
able to continously supply electric power without breakdowns.
Regardless of the type of cable you work with, you will find
the right accessory at ABB. Our product range includes cable
joints, cable terminations and cable connectors for all kinds of
connections between cables and equipment, such as air or
gas-insulated switchgear, transformers etc.
It pays to choose cable accessories with care
Kabeldon cable accessories are used in power cable net-
works worldwide for a reason. Safe junctions equals better
grid reliability and this, as well as lower costs from easier and High voltage testing facility
quicker installations, means major savings in the long term.
