The surge protection device connector (SPD IPC) is designed to protect low voltage overhead lines and electric equipment against over-voltages. It enables the current from the lightning to be led to the ground. The surge protection device connector includes the following elements: - An insulation piercing connector, - A terminal outlet inserted in the end cap of the connector, - A surge protection device (metal oxide overmoulded with silicone) screwed into the terminal outlet, - An earth system tail welded to the surge protection device. The surge protection device reacts: - After a certain number of overvoltages, when the current passing through the surge protection device increases by more than 1mA, - In the case of atmospheric discharge (lightning strike), the current exceeding 65mA. After the surge protection device has performed, the earth system tail physically separates from the connector. The surge protection device then should be replaced with an available spare part (comprising the surge protection device and the earth system tail). -

This tape is designed to conduct the electricty into the earth system and to guarantee the default current runoff. If the copper gives an important electrical and the tinned coating protects from theft thanks to the non visible copper coating conductivity. The copper bonded steel offers a good economical alternative to copper. Furthermore Galvanized steel is an economical solution to coppered tinned steel and protect from the theft too. It has a good conductivity. -
This earth rod is used for the power networks earth system. The thread on both ends makes the earth rod lengthening possible. The copper coating made by electrolytic process gives a resistance to corrosion as well as a good conductivity. The reference standards are EN 50 164-2 and EN 62 561-2. This brass clamp with stainless steel bolts is designed to establish a connection between the earth rod and the conductor. The cable can be fixed radially or axially through the "U" bolt clamp. The brass driving spikes and heads are designed to protect the earth rod during the installation. They enable to preserve the copper coating and its technical features. The brass threaded couplings enable to join two rods and get a deeper earth system. -
This sheath is used for the protection of underground cables. It is available in ring (with draw needle) or in bar. The junction sleeve allows connection between two ends of sheaths. The seperator allows to facilitate the installation of sheaths and to split each one. The sheath end cap allows to seal the sheath by closing its end. -
This connector designed to connect the insulated service conductors to the low voltage overhead aluminium alloy or copper bare conductor network. Two versions are available according to the type of conductor to be connected (Al or Cu). The tap and main cables are connected separately step by step to improve the electrical connection: 1. First the tap line is connected by piercing the insulation, 2. Then the main line is connected. Installation can be carried out under a maximum load of 100A. -
