ADSS Fiber Anchor Clamp

   

 

These anchoring clamps are made of an opened conical body, a pair of plastic wedges and a flexible bail equipped with an insulating thimble. The bail can be locked onto the clamp body once passed through the pole bracket and re-opened by hand at any time when the clamp is not under full load. All parts are secured together to prevent any loss during installation.

   

 

These clamps will be used as cable dead-end at end poles (using one clamp).

Two clamps can be installed as double dead-end in the following cases :

●    at jointing poles

●    at intermediate angle poles when the cable route deviates by more than 20°.

●    at intermediate poles when the two spans are different in lengths

●    at intermediate poles on hilly landscapes

These clamps are used as cable dead-end at end poles for terminating the cable route (using one clamp).

Double dead-end for tangent support at angle route using (1) ACADSS clamps, (2) Bracket

Attach the clamp to the pole bracket using its flexible bail.

Place the clamp body over the cable with the wedges in their back position.

Push on the wedges by hand to initiate the gripping onto the cable.

Check the correct positioning of the cable between the wedges.

When the cable is brought to its installation load at the end pole, the wedges move further into the clamp body. When installing a double dead-end leave some extra length of cable between the two clamps.
