FAQs – Overhead Line Fittings In India
Q1: What are the main types of overhead line accessories?
A1: The main types include: 1. Conductor Fittings (like PG clamps, compression joints). 2. Insulator Fittings (like ball & socket, clevis eye). 3. Earthing Hardware (like earth rods, clamps). 4. ABC Cable Accessories (like IPCs, anchoring clamps). 5. Helical Fittings (like guy grips, armor rods).
Q2: Are your overhead line fittings approved by Indian utilities?
A2: Yes. Our fittings are manufactured to meet or exceed all relevant Indian Standards (IS), REC specifications, and international IEC standards. They are type-tested and approved for use by major utilities and EPCs across India.
Q3: How do I choose the right fitting for my ACSR conductor?
A3: The correct fitting (e.g., a compression joint or clamp) depends on the conductor’s specific code name (like ‘Dog’ or ‘Panther’), its diameter, and the required mechanical strength (UTS). Please contact our technical team with your conductor details, and we will provide an exact product recommendation.
Q4: Are your fittings REC compliant?
A4: Yes, we are a leading supplier for REC (Rural Electrification Corporation) projects. Our full range of ABC accessories, conductor fittings, and pole line hardware meets the strict quality and performance standards set by the REC.
Q5: What materials are used for your line fittings?
A5: Our fittings are built for durability in India’s harsh climates. We use high-strength, hot-dip galvanized steel (for insulator hardware) and high-conductivity, corrosion-resistant aluminium alloys (for conductor fittings).
Q6: Do you supply hardware for HT (High Tension) lines?
A6: Yes, we are a major manufacturer of hardware for HT (11kV, 33kV) and EHV (up to 765kV) lines. This includes all insulator hardware, conductor accessories, and vibration dampers.
Q7: What is the difference between a PG Clamp and an IPC?
A7: A Parallel Groove (PG) Clamp is used to connect two bare overhead conductors (like ACSR to ACSR). An Insulation Piercing Connector (IPC) is used on Aerial Bundled Cables (ABC) to make a connection without stripping the insulation.
Q8: Can you manufacture custom overhead line fittings?
A8: Yes. With our in-house forging, casting, and machining capabilities, we can custom-engineer and manufacture fittings based on your specific project drawings or technical requirements.
Q9: Do you supply all over India?
A9: Yes. Damiano has a robust supply chain and logistics network to deliver overhead line accessories to projects in every state, from remote rural sites to major urban centers.
Q10: What is a Polymeric Stay Wire Insulator?
A10: It is a high-strength insulator (also called a ‘Guy Strain Insulator’) used on stay wires or guy wires to insulate the pole from the ground anchor. Our polymeric stay insulators (like the 130 kN model) are stronger, lighter, and more durable than traditional porcelain options.
