Pole line hardware/Transmission & Distribution Hardware/suspension clamp

Armor-grip suspension clamp is intended for used on aluminium based conductors and galvanized steel strands, it is designed to reduce the static and dynamic stress as the support point, so that the conductor or strand is protected against the effects of oscillations, it also protect the conductor against impulse and power flash-over. Armor-grip suspension is recommended as being superior to armor-clamp combinations, for protecting conductors as being superior to armor-clamp combinations, for protecting conductors from bending stress, compression stress and abrasion.

Unbalanced load: when initially installed , the armor-grip suspension unit has a slip load of approximately 20% of the conductor breaking strength, and approximately 10% of the extra-high standard strands RBS during unbalanced load conditions, but significantly higher loads can be expected after the unit has been in service for a period of time.
