Development of A Vertical Wire Clamp Mechanism and Wiring Device

Abstract

With the improvement of social productivity, high-quality power supply is the main requirement for the power industry. To ensure the stability of power supply, power supply companies need to regularly maintain and repair power equipment, during which the use of grounding wire devices is necessary to protect the working process of maintenance personnel. The existing TV, lightning arrester, and circuit isolation switches of 110kV and above grades in substations mostly use the vertical wire connection method to connect with the equipment. During equipment maintenance, there is a risk of virtual connection and dropping when maintenance personnel install grounding wires on such wires, which threatens the safety of the power grid and personnel. To ensure smooth and stable substation equipment maintenance, a vertical wire clamp mechanism and wiring device have been developed, which not only improves the efficiency of maintenance operations and reduces the labor intensity of maintenance personnel but also reduces the work risks during maintenance operations, and is worth promoting in the industry.
