Competitive parallel groove clamps are designed to connect two. parallel conductors in order to do a derivation of a secondary conductor or to close a loop of one conductor to fit it on an insulator. These connectors are composed of two parts, an upper body and lower body.
Why competitive parallel groove clamps are used?
Competitive parallel groove clamps are used to connect two parallel conductors by accommodating one in each groove. The Conductors may be similar or dis-similar. The competitive parallel groove clamps are made of Aluminium Alloy Castings / Forgings / Extrusions and provide 1.2 KN (minimum) slip strength.
Adaptable to use as an oblique tap or parallel connector, the competitive parallel groove clamp (PG Clamp) is designed to connect two conductors in parallel and especially used to hold transmission conductors in parallel in transmission lines.
When would you use a competitive parallel groove clamp?
Also similar to the f-clamp, the parallel clamps allow for large opening capacities. Ideal for woodworking, the clamp jaws remain parallel under increased loads to give a large distribution area and prevent leaving dimples in the wood.
