Overhead Line Connectors & Crimping Systems for Transmission & Distribution Voltages
Pirelli Prysmian Wedgtap overhead line connector and crimping system provides tap connections onto both aluminium and copper overhead line conductors. Prysmian Wedgtap connectors provide an inner wedge that is power driven between the main and tap conductors locking them into a "C" shaped outer body.
Prysmian overhead line crimp connectors can be installed "live line" onto aluminium AAC, ACSR and AAAC conductors, copper conductors and bi-metallic connectors for aluminium to copper and copper to aluminium conductor applications.
Prysmian BICON Wedgtap connectors are approved for use on Network Rail overhead line conductor systems.
