PCORE ® SET-Terminals:

• Like all PCORE Test Terminals, the new and improved SET- Terminal is used for faster, safer & more cost effective dielectric testing. • The PCORE SET-Terminal has a rated static cantilever strength of up to 2500 ft-lbs; more than 300% higher than existing models. • Can absorb high shock loading in excess of 500g with side blades in the open position. • Available in four commonly used designs and rated up to 3,000A. PCORE ® PRC & POC Bushings: • PCORE conducted the HIGHEST level of the time history shake-table test on a 345kV POC Series II bushing. The bushing successfully passed the test per the IEEE 693-2005 standard. • PCORE POC Series II bushings can withstand an acceleration of 2g and a top acceleration of more than 6g; the HIGHEST in the industry. • IEEE 693-2005 dictates the seismic test requirements of substation equipment including bushings; therefore,

– PCORE 15kV to 69kV bushings are qualified by the static pull test.

– PCORE 115kV to 345kV bushings are qualified to the HIGHEST performance level by the time history shake-table test (includes qualification by group).
