Ripley Tools Original MV Underground Cable Preparation Tool Kit (UA01-7069)
The Ripley Tools UA01-7069 Original MV Underground Kit is a purpose-built cable preparation system engineered for utility crews working on medium voltage underground distribution cable. Developed in collaboration with certified MV cable prep trainers, this kit is capable of performing slit, ring, and spiral cuts on 15-35 kV cable diameters from 0.39in (10mm) to 2.36in (60mm), and is compatible with a wide range of insulation types including PE, XLPE, PVC, EPR, silicone rubber, EPDM, and TGGT.
Designed for general-purpose underground applications, the UA01-7069 pairs Ripley's proven US15, US01, US10, and SCS tool platforms with the company's jacket lifting tool, which addresses the common hazard of cut hands when peeling tough outer jackets over sharp concentric neutrals. The kit also includes 8in needle nose cutting pliers for clean, high-leverage cuts, along with QC-2 and SCS clamps sized for cable OD from 0.31in to 2.5in (8mm-63.5mm). By eliminating exposed blades and traditional knives from the jacket and insulation removal process, the kit significantly reduces the risk of cuts and lacerations on the job site.
Every tool ships in a rugged hard case with custom laser-cut foam that snugly holds each component to prevent damage during transport to and from the field. This kit is ideal for cable jointers, splicers, and utility linemen who need a dependable, all-in-one solution for underground MV cable jacket removal, semi-con scoring, and insulation chamfering, with the option to customize certain tools or convert measurement scales through Ripley.
