Bolted Wedge In-line Disconnect Switch

We are pleased to Make, Export and Supply the new Bolted Wedge In-Line Disconnect Switches in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. Combining an innovative bolted wedge hybrid connector with industry standard components to bring the most reliable performance to switch/ distribution line connections.

The Bolted Wedge In-Line Switch utilizes dual insulators to minimize switch movement during opening and closing of the blade. Installation steps are kept to a minimum as the switch can be snapped directly onto the line and secured with the BURNDY conductor pivot retainer. This retainer acts as a third hand to free up the line worker's hands to safely install the connectors.

These innovative BURNDY bolted wedge connectors utilize bolted technology to provide a highly reliable mechanical and electrical connection and combines it with sliding wedge technology to ensure the connection stays tight even if the line experiences high mechanical loads. The hybrid design also takes some of the guesswork out of tightening the hardware. Simply tighten the bolts near the recommended tightening torque and the hybrid system takes over.

In addition to improving the safety and reliability of the connection, the new Bolted Wedge Connector system also increases the range of conductors it accommodates.
