The HIBUS Conductor Suspension Clamp is designed to reduce static and dynamic stress at the attachment point on transmission conductors without the use of armor rods or line guards. Rated for 250°C operation, the HIBUS clamp has a specially formulated bushing material for HiTemp conductors. The hinged concept on the suspension configuration provides self-alignment of the housing halves. All hardware is captive except for the attachment pin bolt.
Test results have shown that the unique bushing system significantly reduces the bending strain level produced by the effects of Aeolian vibration as compared to standard clamps using armor rods or line guards. This proven level of performance eliminates the need for any type of attachment using rods.
Test reports available include corona test, high temperature profile, standard and high temperature slip, ultimate strength, and catastrophic conductor failure impact strength.
