Solution DescriptionConnect, anchor and suspend overhead insulated lines to reli-ably provide electricity to users by means of safe and quicklyapplied insulated products

Aluminum and bi-metallic mechanical connectors for bareoverhead conductors

Connect a variety of underground cables to reliable distributeenergy avoiding unaestethic and visible support. Connectionscan be crimped or bolted according to local preference andstandards

Provide safe and reliable connections systems for catenaries,including both feeders and contact wires. Connections can bebolted, crimped or mechanically locked, easy to install andallow a better distribution of current in the system.

Interconnect electrical devices in HV substations by means ofHV bolted, crimped or welded products ensuring energy sav-ings, safety and reliability for uninterrupted service.

Provide a safe, reliable, cost effective termination method fordistribution, transmission and grounding applications. Thismethod is preferred especially where reliability and powerquality is a must.

Full range of terminals and splices for electrical equipment.Cost saving solutions through numerous tooling options,ranging from hand tools to automated machines

Outdoor lighting controls for improved economic efficiencyand safety

Economical method of securing conductors to structures,towers, insulators and applying them in field locations with noor limited tooling. Applications include ties, conductor andguy dead ends and armor rods.

Fittings and hardware for installing optical ground wire andADSS optical conductor on electrical transmission and distri-bution lines

HV transmission line fittings and hardware required to installconductors on transmission structures.
