Cable termination with an integrated monitoring device

Abstract

A cable termination including a cable terminal and a cable joint assembly. The cable terminal includes: a terminal conductor; a monitoring device including a capacitive voltage sensor around the terminal conductor; and an electrically insulating body fitted around the terminal conductor, including a bell-shaped end portion in which the voltage sensor is at least partially embedded. The cable terminal alternatively includes: a terminal conductor; a monitoring device including a capacitive voltage sensor around the terminal conductor; and an electrically insulating body fitted around the terminal conductor, including a bell-shaped end portion in which the voltage sensor is at least partially embedded and a stem end portion, the terminal conductor extending beyond the stem end portion.
