Transmission Line Connection Elements

Suspension and Carrying Equipment

• Suspension Clamp (Suspension Sets): Carries the conductor and reduces rotation/fatigue.
• Front Winding / Armor Rods: Protects the conductor against abrasion and bending.
• Yoke Plates, Shackles, Clevises, U-Bolts: Secure transfer between insulator–clamp–tower.

Pull and Anchor (Dead-End) Hardware

• Anchor (Pull) Clamps / Wedge & Preformed Dead-End: Secures the conductor against pulling force at line ends or corners.
• Tensioning Hardware (Turnbuckle, Puller): Fine adjustment and alignment.

Electrical Connections and Additional Elements

• Compression Splice: Connects conductor ends with low resistance.
• PG Clamp, T-Connector: Jumper/disconnection and bridge connections.
• Cable Boot, Terminal Accessories: Busbar/equipment terminations.

Protection and Damping

• Vibration Dampers (Stockbridge): Suppresses wind-induced aeolian vibration.
• Spacer / Spacer-Damper (Conductor Bundle): Stabilizes phase bundle spacing, reduces collision and oscillation.
• Corona/Voltage Grading Ring: Reduces corona losses and electric field intensity at high voltages.
• Arcing Horn: Diverts arcing away from the insulator during overvoltage.
• Warning & Marking Accessories: Airway warning sphere, bird deterrent/bird deflector.

Insulator Chain and End Fittings

• Glass/Composite Insulators: Insulates line voltage from the ground.
• End Fittings (Ball-Socket, Clevis-Socket, etc.): Insulator–connection element spacers.

OPGW/ADSS and Ground Wire Accessories

• OPGW Suspension/Anchor Sets, Pre-Winding: Secure transport/termination of fiber ground wire.
• Down-Lead Clamp: Secures cable descent along the pole.
• Splice Closures/Joint Boxes, Grounding Clamps.

Tower Hardware and Connectors

• Bolt–Nut–Washer Sets, Gear Shaft, Cable Clamps: Mechanical joining and fastening elements.
• Jumper Hanger Brackets, Cable Carriers.
