LV cast resin joints (or LV junction boxes) Explanation: As we have no suffient context, we could either guess or look for that term in dictionaries or other bilingual references, e.g.: Utilisés pour l'étanchéité, l'isolation des câble set trousses de jonction. adhesifs.com Sealing, insulation of cables and junction boxes. adhesifs.com https://www.linguee.com/english-french/search?source=auto&qu... Area Electrical accessories / Connecting devices IEV ref 442-06-27 en junction connection between two or more conductor ends fr jonction, f connexion entre plusieurs extrémités de conducteurs http://www.electropedia.org/iev/iev.nsf/display?openform&iev... Area Electric cables / Joints IEV ref 461-11-11 en cast resin joint, potted joint joint in which resin compound is cast in a mould or joint casing as insulation and/or mechanical protection fr jonction (en résine) coulée f, dérivation (en résine) coulée, f, jonction simple ou dérivation dans laquelle une matière résineuse est coulée dans un moule ou dans le corps de boîte pour assurer l'isolation ou la protection mécanique http://www.electropedia.org/iev/iev.nsf/display?openform&iev... We have still one hint from the context: 'composées d’un moule transparent en un seul élément'. I remember from previous activities that most potted joints for low voltage are transparent, what allows the worker to verify correct potting. CAST RESIN JOINTS CodeN cast resin, low voltage through joints Manufactured from transparent synthetic material which allows a visual check of the connections before and after casting. The halves of the shell are joined by snap closures which avoid further fixing or sealing. Shells are left on after casting to provide additional protection against mechanical abrasion, chemical agents and severe weather conditions http://www.cembre.com/family/details/3933 BTW: 'BT' means Basse Tension => Low Voltage, 'LV'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 heures (2019-05-24 08:16:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- French version: BOITES DE JONCTION ET DERIVATION Code N Pour jonction basse tension avec résine à couler Les coques sont fabriquées en matière transparente que permet un contrôle visuel des connections avent et après la coulée. Les deux demi coques s’assemblent par un verrouillage à déclenchement qui évite des fixations ou des imperméabilisations supplémentaires. Les coques sont laissées sur la jonction après la coulée de façon à assurer une protection supplémentaire contre les chocs mécaniques et les agressions climatiques. http://www.cembre.com/family/details/3933 The corresponding datasheet contains a similar description: The shells are manufactured on transparent synthetic material which allows a visual check of the connections before and after the casting. Both the halves of the shell are joined by a snap closure which avoids further fixing or impermeabilizations. The shells are left on the boxes after casting; in this way they represent an additional protection against mechanical, chemical or severe weather condition actions. http://www.cembre.com/assets/N/allegati/cast-resin-joints-n-... Same in French: http://www.cembre.com/assets/N/allegati/boites-de-jonction-e... Depending on whether the emphasis is put on "jonction" or "trousse", we can attach a translation for "trousse", e.g. "kit" or "set", or omit. In fact, the shell (coque) can be regarded as the "set". Same is applicable for a junction box containing terminals and other parts. TROUSSE 1. Vx ou région. a) Assemblage de choses de même nature liées ensemble.

peer agreement (net): +1| trousse de jonction BT LV joining kit Explanation: Assuming these are just for joining 2 cables end to end; if, however, they are for tapping one cable off from another, then possibly 'junction kit' might be better. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2019-05-23 09:52:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- BT = Basse Tension = Low Voltage -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2019-05-23 09:55:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Assuming, of course, we are not talking about British Telecom! But that seems unlikely from what clues we can glean from the little context we have... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 days (2019-05-31 05:25:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The fact we have 'trousse' here but 'kit' elsewhere in your document suggests this may well be just another synonym for a 'kit' —cf. usage like 'trousse de secours' = 'first-aid kit'. Of course, if the two terms are ever opposed, then it would be necessary to know what the difference between them is in order to find an alternative translation. |
