DISTRIBUTION STRAIN CARRIER
The RC401-0411 and RC401-0410 Distribution Double Strain Carriers relieves the tension of the anchor insulator string to allow it to be removed from the energized line. It has a yoke on the hot-end equipped with jaws that are mounted to the conductor by compression, tightening each time the strain load increases.
These jaws are designed to be mounted to conductors with Ø 7.40 to 20.50 mm (2 to 397.5 ACSR). The other end of the assembly is equipped with yoke and hook string for anchoring to the structure. Special 305 mm long steel bolts with small trunnion allow for even strain of the assembly.
Rated working capacity is 2948 daN/6500 lb for distribution strings between 69 and 145 kV.
