APG Aluminum Parallel groove clamp

Short Description:

There are several instances where you are compelled to install conductors parallel to each other. One of them is when you want to install a second conductor in a closed loop. Such applications require you to buy a parallel grove clamp.

A parallel groove clamp comprises two components, the upper part, and the lower side. They are drawn together to exert the clamping force on the transmission line. This can be a power line or a telecommunication cable.

The groove clamps are made of heavy-duty aluminum which is strong and resistant to various forms of chemical and physical damage. The aluminum metal also provides takes the excessive clamping force that is required when clamping parallel conductors. It also provides resistance to UV-rays.

The parallel groove conductors feature a ‘precise fit’ design. This allows it to be clamped accurately and offer the desired support. The design also allows the clamp to support different conductor sizes. The parallel groove provides a platform onto which the conductor will rest.

APG Type Aluminium Pg Connecotrs

The forged aluminium clamps wasuse for aluminium to aluminium connection throughout the conductor range. The clamps have serrated transverse grooves for maximum conductor contact, use dacromet steel bolts and utilize belleville washers to prevent thermal ratcheting under cyclic loads. The clamps are coated with an oxide inhibitor. And hot-dip galvinized steel bolts and nuts was on requirement, also we can change to stainless bolts and nuts with washers.

Overview

Parallel -groove clamp combined channel connector is applicable to weight disburdening connection of overhead aluminium wire and splicing steel wire. PG series aluminium transitional combined channel connector is applicable to the transitional connection of aluminium applicable to branching connection of different-section.

Parallel groove clamps are mainly used for transmitting current between the interconnected conductors. Besides this main area of application parallel groove clamps are also used for safety loops and therefore they must provide an adequate mechanical holding strength.

Features:

APG Aluminum parallel Groove Clamp is used for tapping or jointing copper conductor to aluminum overhead conductors AAC, AAAC, or ACSR. Forging creates a high strength clamp. Slotted holes allow adjustment for varying conductors to each side.

● Has pressure pads on its edges to withstand the excessive clamping force
● Comes with high strength to complete the connection during the installation
● Provides a perfect electrical contact while minimizing corrosion
● Pressure is uniformly distributed across the clamp
● Resistant to high-temperature changes

Advantages:

1)APG Aluminum PArallel Groove Clamp body is made of high corrosion resistant aluminum alloy.
2)Threaded bottom part of connector can provide easy installation.
3)Wide range from 16mm-300mm.
