Cold Shrink Tubes 3M : EPDM rubber cold shrink tubes provide cable sealing, protection and insulation for low voltage (LV) power cables up to 1000 volts. Tough EPDM 3M cold shrink rubber tubes are suitable for underground cable joints and direct burial. Resistant to acids and alkalis. Resistant to fungi, ozone and UV light to seal, protect and insulate outdoor cables.
How ?
3M Cold Shrink tubes are open-ended, tubular rubber sleeves, which are factory expanded onto a removable core. The core is removed after the cold shrink tube has been positioned for installation over an inline connection, splice or cable lug, allowing the cold shrink tube to shrink and form a waterproof seal. Cold shrink tubes provide a quicker, safer and easier sealing solution for cables and pipes than heat shrink - no "hot-work" permit required for oil, gas and petrochemical site installations. T&D stock an extensive range of 3M Cold Shrink Tubes and Tubing.

Isolation Procedures for Safe Working on Electrical Systems and Equipment by the JIB | solation Procedures for Safe Working on Electrical Systems and Equipment
This chart shows the safe isolation procedure that you should use when working on electrical systems and equipment.
You'll receive a printed copy of this from your Training Provider, but it's also here as a handy reference to keep electronically.
THE RULES OF SAFE ISOLATION ARE:
Obtain permission to start work (a Permit may be required in some situations)
Identify the source(s) of supply using an approved voltage indicator or test lamp
Prove that the approved voltage indicator or test lamp is functioning correctly
Isolate the supply(s)
Secure the isolation
Prove the system/equipment is DEAD using an approved voltage indicator or test lamp
Prove that the approved voltage indicator or test lamp is functioning correctly
Put up warning signs to tell other people that the electrical installation has been isolated
Once the system/equipment is proved DEAD, work can begin

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Specifications
Product
Splicing of all 1000 volts or less inline power cables from 6mm2 to 500mm2 shall be done in accordance with the instructions
provided with 3M Brand PST Cold Shrink Connector Insulators.
Engineering/Architectural
The connector insulator must be capable of operation at emergency overload cable temperatures of 130°C. It must be
usable without additional covering or adhesive, both indoors and outdoors, in overhead, direct buried or submersed
applications, on cables rated up to 1000 volts. It must be applied without additional heat or flame and, when applied
according to the manufacturer’s directions, but immediately energizable. It must not be adversely affected by moisture, mild
acids or alkalis, ozone or ultraviolet light. It must be compatible with all rubber or plastic insulated 1000 volt cables. It must
conform to the requirements of ANSI C119.1 1974, appropriate sections of Western Underground Guide 2.14 and UL 486D.
It must have been accepted by the US Dept of Agriculture, Rural Electrification Administration, for both submersible and
aerial application.
Performance Tests
The characteristic, which is vital to the performance of the PST is permanent set. Permanent set is defined as “the
percentage of the original stretched deformation not recovered in a given period of time after the deforming force (core) has
been removed”. Because the PST tube has not been allowed to return to its original ID by the cable, a live rubber force
exists between the cable insulation and the PST tube.
The 8420 series tubes are installed on the core at approximately 250% stretch. The permanent set test is done in the tension
mode and reflects the elastic memory property of the material. Field experience combined with laboratory test data has
shown that our EPDM PST/Cold Shrink™ compounds exhibit excellent long-term elastic memory characteristics.
Moisture, Heat and Seal Tests
3M Brand Connector Insulators meet or exceed the test requirements of UL486D and ANSI C119.1.
Test Sequence.
1. 24 hours in room temperature water (30cm deep).
