ClampStar CSS DEADEND Installation

ClampStar CSS Deadend Transmission Class units are used to correct deadend connections on overhead transmission conductors.

ClampStar® is an engineered electrical and mechanical shunt that, along with proactive maintenance practices improves safety and prevents unplanned outages. ClampStar is the industry’s only PERMANENT life extension solution for virtually all overhead conductors. Increasing power flows on some of the oldest lower-voltage circuits, especially during emergencies has put significant pressure on a power grid that was built mainly to serve local markets. ClampStar is necessary to help bring the power grid up to a level of acceptable physical soundness and reliability. With ClampStar, splices, deadends and suspension clamps are repaired with NO power interruption; connector replacement is no longer necessary. It easily installs over the existing connector.

ClampStar installs in a few minutes, with a hot-stick or gloves. No mechanical grips, come-alongs, jumper cables or cutters are needed. And, ClampStar meets ANSI C119.4 Class AA, extra heavy-duty and PERMANENTLY restores both electrical and mechanical integrity on weathered conductors. There’s no need to cut power or lines and it easily installs over the existing splice. ClampStar also increases ampacity allowing for system up-rates and is significantly safer than traditional splice replacements. ClampStar is available in both rigid and flexible versions to accommodate various cable diameters for both transmission and distribution applications.
