Linear hardware for self-supporting insulated wires (SIW) for 0.4 kV overhead distribution lines

Short-Circuit Devices UZK-5, UZK-6, and UZK-7

The UZK series devices are designed for mobile short-circuiting and grounding of insulated overhead lines (VLI) with a voltage of 0.4 kV. After verifying the absence of voltage, the device is connected to the ground using the UZM grounding device, and the plug-in cartridges are inserted into ZVZ 481 adapters, ensuring compliance with safety regulations for grounding overhead lines during maintenance.

Design and Features

  • Composition: the set consists of 5–7 plug-in cartridges connected by a flexible insulated copper wire.
  • Modifications:
    • UZK-5: contains 5 plug-in cartridges, weight not exceeding 1.55 kg.
    • UZK-6: contains 6 plug-in cartridges, weight not exceeding 1.75 kg.
    • UZK-7: contains 7 plug-in cartridges, weight not exceeding 1.95 kg.

Technical Specifications

  • Compliance: devices are manufactured according to TU 3449-002-52819896-2011.
