Swing Tester for ABC Cable Suspension Clamps
The swing test for ABC cable fitting suspension clamps is a mechanical endurance test. It's for ABC fittings under a continuous swinging testing environment.
Swing tester for ABC cable suspension clamps: a mechanical endurance test under continuous swinging, for power fitting manufacturers and high-voltage laboratories.
Swing tester is a type of test equipment applied in electrical labs or workshops. It’s used by manufacturers of power fittings or electrical high voltage researchers. This swing test is to test the endurance of suspension clamps under repeated swing movement for a long period of time.
The swing test shall be carried out with a connection of aluminum, normally an aluminum clamp to hold the ABC suspension clamp (specimen). A conductive rod with a diameter equal to the average diameter of the cable (54,6mm2) should be inserted on the suspension clamp. The load should be applied to the suspension clamp. The load acts through the suspension clamp on the suspension point and must remain constant throughout the test.
This swing test is to be performed after aging test.
11 kV Composite Pin Insulator for Overhead Distribution Lines
11KV composite pin insulators are used on 11KV high voltage overhead power distribution lines. These pin insulators are made by FRP core, silicon rubber, and metallic fittings. On the bottom side of the fitting, it is where we call pin, the pin has a screw which is used to fix the insulator onto the cross-arm. On header fitting, it usually has a groove shape to fix conductors.
