Our comprehensive range of cable installation accessories is designed to meet the diverse needs of electrical systems, ensuring safety, reliability, and efficiency in both overhead and underground applications. These accessories are essential for the proper installation, maintenance, and protection of power cables across various voltage levels.
Power line fittings are critical components that facilitate secure and efficient connections between cables and electrical equipment. They include connectors, bushings, and other hardware that ensure reliable electrical conductivity and mechanical support.
Clamps are used to secure cables in place, preventing movement that could lead to wear or damage. They are available in various materials and designs to suit different applications, including suspension clamps, strain relief clamps, and mounting brackets. For instance, HellermannTyton offers a wide range of steel and plastic cable clamps suitable for industrial applications.
Cable termination accessories are essential for safely and effectively connecting cables to electrical equipment. These include termination kits, heat shrink and cold shrink terminations, and separable connectors. For example, 3M provides a variety of power cable terminations featuring cold shrink technology, engineered for easy installation and long-term performance.
Insulators are used to support and insulate electrical conductors, preventing unwanted current flow to the ground. They are available in materials like porcelain and epoxy resin, offering high dielectric strength and durability. For instance, Gipro manufactures customized insulated plugs made of high-quality cast resin for medium voltage cable accessories.
Surge arresters protect electrical systems from voltage spikes caused by lightning or switching events. They divert excess voltage to the ground, safeguarding equipment from damage. TE Connectivity offers a range of surge arresters for both AC and DC networks, meeting various fire and smoke specifications.
Lightning arresters are designed to protect electrical systems from direct lightning strikes by providing a low-resistance path to the ground. Hitachi Energy offers a complete range of lightning arresters for low, medium, and high-voltage applications, ensuring safe and reliable protection of electrical equipment.
Fuse cutouts are overcurrent protection devices used in overhead line systems to prevent distribution transformers from being damaged by surges. They combine a fuse and a switch, allowing for easy disconnection and replacement. Eaton's Cooper Power series fuse cutouts provide reliable overcurrent protection for primary distribution systems.
Isolating switches are used to ensure that an electrical circuit is completely de-energized for maintenance or repair. They provide a visible break in the circuit, enhancing safety for personnel. For example, TX Elec offers a range of isolation switches suitable for various voltage levels.
Each of these categories encompasses a variety of products tailored to specific applications and voltage ratings. Whether you're working on medium-voltage underground systems or high-voltage overhead lines, our selection of cable installation accessories ensures that you have the right tools and components for the job.
