TYPES OF STRAIN CLAMPS

Strain clamps are used to fix conductors and ground wires to insulators or link fittings for the tension string of overhead transmission, distribution line and substations.

There are two basic systems of strain clamps,

1. Detachable clamps, such as wedge-type tension clamps, thimbles, bolted type tension clamps, which allow for subsequent adjustment.

2. Non-detachable clamps, such as compression dead-end clamps which require absolute matching to the conductor length.
