For tranmission line construction with all aluminum, ACSR or aluminum alloy conductor or for Alumoweld shield wire.
Quadrant strain clamps are used for transmission line deadends.
- “Type SD is designed for single cable
- The Sag Eye Ultimate Strength is 60% of the Ultimate Body Strength without fitting
- Rated slip strength as a % of conductor RBS varies with conductor type, size, and stranding. Minimum slip strength rating on standard strength conductors is 40% RBS (Partial Tension). For many standard strength conductors, minimum slip strength of this clamp series is 60% RBS (Normal Tension). Consult factory for slip strength test data on specific clamp and conductor combinations
- Bolt and Nut may be substituted for clevis pin by adding suffix “BNK” to catalog number. Example: SD185SBNK
- Bolt and clevis pin will be the same diameter
- The “S” suffix indicates the component will come supplied with socket eye SA1550
- Socket SA1550 is rated for a connection to an ANSI class 52-8/52-11 insulator
- For Corona Free applications on EHV lines, add suffix “CRF” to catalog number. Example: SD185SCRF”
