General
Suspension clamps support and connect conductors onto insulator
strings.
Information for ground wire suspension clamps, including fibre
optic cables (OPGW - optical ground wires) and ADSS (all-dielec-
tric self-supporting) cables can be found in Parts 8 and 18 of the
catalogue.
Suspension clamps provide the following:
- A safe mechanical connection in all conditions. This includes all
ruling span stresses at maximum working loads combined with
controlled grip of longitudinal tension that provides protection.
Suspension clamps also provide longitudinal grip control, relea-
sing the conductor at the suspension clamps at defined slip loads
to prevent damage.
- The clamps are designed to protect the conductor at line design
installation loads.
- Suspension clamps incorporate controlled movement for added
conductor protection against wind induced vibration and oscil-
lation.
- High electrical current short circuit loads are transmitted through
arcing devices attached to string hardware protecting the suspen-
sion system. For more details, please refer to Part 3 of the catalo-
gue.
- The outer profile clamp shapes are designeduce electrical dischar-
ge to below maximum specified corona extinction voltages. The-
se values are also influenced by conductor bundle configuration,
and must also be considered.

Material
- All materials used are fully compatible with the conductor appli-
Bosporus Crossing:Double I-insulator string with a cation. For example, clamps attached to aluminium based con-
saddle type suspension clamp
ductors are manufactured from high strength corrosion resistant
aluminium alloys.
- Unless otherwise specified, all ferrous components are hot dip-
ped galvanized acc. to EN 61284 or ISO EN 1461 ; Overhead
lines-requirements and tests for fittings. Where stainless steel fas-
teners are used, ISO EN 3506 ; Mechanical properties of corro-
sion resistant stainless steel fasteners - Part 1: Bolts, screws and
studs are specified.
- For special cases where big dynamic loads may occur at low
temperatures, fittings made of low-temperature (cryogenic)
steels are available.
- For lines constructed in higher corrosive atmospheres and
environments, the minimum zinc thickness of fittings can be
increased from 85 μ to 110 μ or 130 μ Microns.
- All fitting assemblies supplied have identification marking
according to EN 61284 ; this includes manufactures mark and
date code, specified minimum mechanical failure load, and
1 second short circuit current withstand rating.

The following catalogue pages provide an overview of the types of


suspension clamp most commonly used. For more specialised re-
quirements, suspension clamp designs accommodate specific line
protection features.
Controlled slip suspension clamps
This type allows controlled axial
cable slip forces to be precisely adjusted
Releasing to allow controlled cable release at
suspension clamp specified loads. Axial grip and slip dis-
(left) placement is maintained following high
and imbalanced span loadings e.g; impact or
Characteristic ice shedding loads on adjacent spans.

behaviour (right)
Suspension clamps for wide-span fields
For longer spans, double clamp types can be specified for higher
strength and reduced cable bending stresses by reducing cable angle
deviation at suspension points.
Saddle type suspension clamps, manufactured from high strength
corrosion resistant aluminium alloys, are contoured at the cable connec-
tion interface to reduce support stresses, and are also recommended for
long span high line angle deviation routes. This type can also be offered

as a controlled slip load clamp.


Both clamp types have proven reliability and long service life with
multiple power network operators.

Suspension clamps for high-tempera-


ture conductors
As power requirements increase,
high-temperature carrying conductors
with a capacity of up to 235°C will be
more common.
However, the clamps used for these con-
ductors must not be affected by high tem-
peratures and maintain strength and me-
Heat cycle test with chanical performance.
suspension clamps It is therefore necessary to increase the
for high-tempera- mass and surface area of clamp designs to
ture conductors reduce thermal stresses. This is preferably
accomplished by the use of Armour Rods.

Long-term testing demonstrates the effectiveness of these develop-


ments. These tests also prove suitability of different types of high
temperature conductor’s e.g. where the steel core has a gap arran-
ged loosely inside the conductor (e.g. GAP GZTACSR conductor).

Suspension clamps for bundle conductors, for vertical twin and


quadruple bundles
All types of clamps can be used in multiple string configuartions
with specific bundle spacings. Different types of conterweight can
be adapted for direct or indirect connection to conductors.

Helical Suspension Unit
In the clamping area, the conductor will
be surrounded by a neoprene insert of
concave shape preventing the conductor
from slipping under longitudinal ten-
sion. The helically formed rods wound
around the neoprene insert are gripped
by the main clamping body.
There are two basic types available.
A forged aluminium main body type, with HSU clamp with a
steel axle pivots screwed and pressed into connection to the
the body at the conductor centre line, centre
easing installation. The main bodies are
hinged and clamped by a conventio-
nal bolt, attached by steel straps to the
pivots and insulator string.
A conventional cast aluminium body
type is secured and connected together
by a high strength aluminium strap,
with a clevis bolt string attachment HSU clamp with an
above the conductor. aluminium belt

Helical wire fittings


Helical wire fittings are made of formed round wire rods, with the
ends shaped depending on the material and diameter. The formed
diameters of the wires are smaller than the diameter of cable to be
applied. This creates uniform radial pre compression of the spiral
without permanent distortion of the wires or sub-sets. This applies
the initial low stress grip of the cable, which increases as a resultant
of higher tension forces that convert to high frictional grip. Uniform
radial loads and grip increase over a longer application and contact
length that provide low relative and uniform radial stress.

Suspension points have reinforcing rods with larger suspension


clamps applied. Special short-suspension clamps or helical suppor-
ting units (HSU’s) with integrated armour rods will also be used.

Identification and labelling of products are in accordance with;


IEC 61284 (Rules of behaviour with respect to possible hazards
when dealing with electric equipment and equipment employing
similar techniques) will either be printed on individual rod sets or
stated on a label connected to the set.

The lay direction of the helical rods is normally same as that of the
outermost layer of the conductor, typically right hand lay.

The material used is the same as that in the outer layer of the conductor.

The screw type bolts of these clamps have been mounted in line with the conductor axes. This will
help to improve mobility and reduce alternating bending strains caused by vibrations. In order to
minimize abrasion between the eyes and the screw type bolts, these parts are made of steel. HSU’s
(heliformed suspension units) can be used for a conductor angle of up to 30°. Conductor angles
of up to 60° will be possible if two bodies are connected by a suitable yoke plate via a combined
heliformed rod.
This is shown in part 18.Other dimensions are available upon request.

General
Tension clamps connect conductors to tension strings and withstand
the required mechanical holding forces.
A distinction is made between two types of tension clamps, which have
fundamental differences:
- Disconnectable clamps, such as wedge tension clamps, bolted type
tension clamps, helical dead ends and strain thimbles, can all be
adjusted;
- Compression dead end clamps, are permanent connections, and
cannot be adjusted for span, sag, or tension adjustments.
Tension clamps must fulfil the following tasks:
- A mechanical connection that safely withstands tension loads in all
operating cases. This requires a minimum mechanical failing load
force withstand to up 95% of the breaking load of the conductors
according to the relevant specification. For substation applications,
these requirements can be reduced. To reach high tension require-
ments, conductor entry clamp profiles are designed for minimum
conductor stress. Mechanical tension forces in compression dead
end clamp jumper loops are lower.
- The design of the conductor entry profile reduces risk of damage
due to wind induced movement and vibrations.
- High currents caused by short circuit events are transmitted to the
arcing devices through the string hardware. For a more detailed
explanation, please refer to Part 3 of the catalogue.
- Clamps have design profiles that reduce electrical stress and partial
discharges to control corona extinction to above defined values.
Conductor bundle configurations combined with high nominal vol-
400 kV tension tower: 2 systems for a quadruple
tages at tension towers, may require fitment of corona rings.
bundle

Material
- All materials used are fully compatible with the conductor ap-
plication. For example, wedge clamps attached to aluminium
based conductors are manufactured from high strength corrosion
resistant aluminium alloys.
- Unless otherwise specified, all ferrous components are hot dip-
ped galvanized acc. to EN 61284 or ISO EN 1461 ; Overhead
lines-requirements and tests for fittings. Where stainless steel
fasteners are used, ISO EN 3506 ; Mechanical properties of cor-
rosion resistant stainless steel fasteners - Part 1: Bolts, screws and
studs are specified.
- For special cases where big dynamic loads may occur at low
temperatures, fittings made of low-temperature (cryogenic)

steels are available.
with corona ring - For lines constructed in higher corrosive atmospheres and
environments, the minimum zinc thickness of fittings can be
increased from 85 μ to 110 μ or 130 μ Microns.
- All fitting assemblies supplied have identification marking
according to EN 61284; this includes manufactures mark and date
code, specified minimum mechanical failure load, and 1 second
short circuit current withstand rating.

Wedge tension clamps


These clamps can be used for overhead lines
and substations.
The clamping effect of the wedge tension clamp
is created by the wedge action converting ten-
sion load into compressive clamping loads.
As tension loads increase, longitudinal wedge Wedge tension
movement inside the housing increases clam- clamp with
ping forces and strength. jumper connection
Special grease lubrication of the wedges reduces
friction increasing mechanical grip.
Clamp selection also depends on the conductor configuration. For
ACSR applications, the designs of the conductor grooves are optimised
to clamp the aluminium outer strands into the steel core providing
good mechanical grip and strength. As for conductors that are heavily
greased, there are special types with reinforced screws. For increasing
radial pressure, these wedge clamps will be provided with a special dry
coating on the sliding surfaces. Furthermore the conductor groove is
appropriately modified. If wedge tension clamps are used, the jumper
loops are usually connected by 2 or 3 parallel groove clamps.

In principle, two types are available:

Wedge tension clamps, are made of two forged bodies connected


by a hinge with corresponding wedges. These can be with or Cross section of a
without jumper connection. The jumper connection is forged with wedge tension
one of the two wedges. If, however, conductor diameters are bigger, clamp
it can also be connected by means of screws separately.
Stainless Steel connecting screws are supplied as standard A2 quality.
Hot dip galvanized screws can also be specified on request.
Double wedge tension clamps have two bodies made from a
high-strength aluminium profile, with wedge designed as previously
described. Hot dipped galvanized screws are standard, Stainless steel
A2 quality screws can also be supplied. This type of clamp is suitable for

Cone type tension clamps


These clamps work in the same way as wedge
tension clamps, but the wedges are cone
shaped. Cones are available with or without
jumper conections. Depending upon the
construction of the conductors or OPGW
it can be necessary to use reinforcing rods.
Cone diameters will be calculated acc. to the Cone type tension
conductor dimensions. clamp

It is therefore necessary to increase the mass and surface area of clamp


and joint designs to reduce thermal stresses.

Long-term testing at MOSDORFER testing laboratories demonstrates


the effectiveness of these developments. These tests also prove sui-
tability of different types of high temperature conductors e.g. where
the steel core has a gap arranged loosely inside the conductor (e.g.
GAP GZTACSR conductor).

For special projects, where electrical noise reduction is required due


to cable corona discharge risks, larger diameter hollow conductors
can be used that have the same electrical current carrying capacity
and cross section as conventional conductors.

Fittings for hollow conductors can also be supplied.

Helical wire fittings


Helical wire fittings are made of formed round wire rods, with the
ends shaped depending on the material and diameter. The formed
diameters of the wires are smaller than the diameter of cable to be
applied. This creates uniform radial pre compression of the spiral
without permanent distortion of the wires or sub-sets. This applies
the initial low stress grip of the cable, which increases as a resultant
of higher tension forces that convert to high frictional grip. Uniform
radial loads and grip increase over a longer application and contact
length that provide low relative and uniform radial stress.

Helical dead ends have multiple formed wires bonded together with
a formed loop for strain thimble attachment. The inside of the helix
of all helical tension fittings have a high friction textured finish to
improve grip. The materials used are fully compatible with the cable
being applied.

Identification and labelling of products are in accordance with


IEC 61284 (Rules of behaviour with respect to possible hazards
when dealing with electric equipment and equipment employing
similar techniques) will either be printed on individual rod sets or
stated on a label connected to the set.

The lay direction of the helical rods is normally same as that of the

Compression dead end clamps and compression joints


Compression fittings can be supplied in many variants:
e.g.
- clamps with bore holes for the filling with grease
- with twisted connection devices for quadruple bundles
- with a welded cable lug
- with an elongated cable lug as abrasion protection for vertical two bundles
- for Aluminium-Steel conductors with only one center wire clamps and joints without steel sleeve can be supplied

Compression dead end clamps and compression joints will be adapted to suit the conductor being used very ac-
curately. For this reason, we have only included the DIN conductors as well as conductors using code names which
are most commonly used.

Compression material for conductors with other material qualities or material types of aluminium can be supplied
upon request.
Clamps with other conection devices and oval eyes can also be supplied upon request.
Compression fittings for ACSR with a big steel core will be delivered with a filler sleeve.
MOSDORFER offers compression fittings with internal tube end tapers as well as external tube end tapers, the fol-
lowing pages explain the most common types.

General
Parallel groove clamps provide electrical connection between
two conductors, and mainly used in jumper loops with wedge
type suspension clamps.

Other applications include branch


connection in substations, and
ground wire eart continuity con-
nections.

Parrallel groove clamps are also


used in security loops of sus-
pension strings, where sufficient
conductor stabilisation force is
required.

For safety reasons, it is recommen-

for one loop.

Special types are required for vibration dam-


ping loops of Brettelle dampers. Clamps for
Bretelle dampers see catalogue part 10.

The grooves of parallel groove clamps made


of aluminium and designed for low electrical
joint resistance and power transmission bet-
ween conductors.

The connection faces have specialised texture
surfaces to establish better electrical and me-
chanical connection.

Forged clamps have smooth outer profiles that


are particularly suited to higher voltage fields
where good corona discharge performance
is required.

Parallel groove Projecting ends of conductors can be pro-


clamp with a tected using end caps to maintain high per-
dead end cap formance.

Parallel groove clamps can be also be manufactured from extruded


aluminium alloy, and particularly suited to earth wire applications.
For power connections, this type is suitable for voltages ≤ 132kV.
Clamps can also be provided with grooves of different sizes, with
a range of reducing tubes in aluminium and bimetallic material on
request (connecting Copper to Aluminium cable).
