Dry termination for an electric cable

A termination for an electric cable, comprising:

• a conductive element longitudinally extended from a lower extremity to an upper extremity;
• a conductive shank connected to the upper extremity of the conductive element, adapted for connection of the termination to an electric installation;
• an insulating body surrounding the conductive element;
• a casing of an elastic insulating material about the insulating body;
• and
• electrical field control means included in the casing;
• wherein the insulating body comprises a substantially cylindrical portion surrounding the lower extremity of the conductive element, the substantially cylindrical portion being adapted for connection of the termination to the electric cable, the conductive element and the insulating body constituting a substantially rigid assembly adapted to resist a predetermined transverse stress,
• further comprising a joining assembly comprising an electric connection element connecting a conductor of the electric cable and the conductive element of the termination, and a prefabricated flexible joint covering the electric connection element and a length of the substantially cylindrical portion of the insulating body.
