LoviSil®
Cross-bonding Joints

Increase grid efficiency without replacing cables

Long MV cable routes create:

  • induced currents
  • energy losses
  • overheating risks

Solution
Crossbonding eliminates circulating currents by balancing electrical loads
Result:

  • lower losses
  • lower heat
  • better performance

LoviSil® cross-bonding joints offer a smart and reliable solution to reduce cable losses in medium-voltage grids. By connecting earth screens crosswise, currents in the screen wires or earth conductors are reduced and cable systems perform more efficiently. The joint integrates seamlessly into the LoviSil® concept and supports grid operators in optimizing modern grids.

✔ Reduce energy losses significantly
✔ Lower operational costs (OPEX)
✔ Prevent overheating and ageing
✔ Increase usable grid capacityContent Goes Here

  • Significantly reduces cable losses – minimizes ohmic losses through effective cross-bonding of earth shields.

  • Cost-saving operations – lower losses and more efficient grid use reduce operational costs in the long run.

  • Proven performance in modern medium-voltage grids – electrically reliable design, tested according to common standards.

Smart cross-bonding construction – a flexible cross-bonding cable that is securely connected to the bundled earth screen.

Low-loss design – finish with field-steering tape and copper mesh prevents hot spots and contributes to minimal screen flows.

Perfect electrical insulation – the connection is electrically protected with liquid silicone.

Uniform installation for jointers – uses the same component philosophy as other LoviSil® joints.

Applications

LoviSil® cross-bonding joints are particularly suitable for long cable runs, grid reinforcements, underground infrastructure in urban areas and projects where efficiency and reliability are key. The cable joint offers a durable, low-maintenance and technically robust solution for modern energy and industrial medium-voltage networks.

✔ Reduce energy losses significantly
✔ Lower operational costs (OPEX)
✔ Prevent overheating and ageing
✔ Increase usable grid capacity
