Specification

Use: KW94 is used for the suspension of ABC insulated messenger. It can be used in straight lines and line angles. Maximum line angle is 90 degrees.  

Construction: The aluminium body of the clamp is coated all over with plastic, except for the upper U-shaped portion where the clamp is hung on the pole hook. 

Installation: Hang the clamp on the suspension hook. Separate the messenger wire, resting on a pulley, from the cable. If needed, use separation wedges or other suitable tool in separating the messenger. Insert the messenger wire into the clamp’s conductor groove. Loosen the wing nut a little bit, and place the keeper snugly against the messenger. Tighten the wing nut firmly by hand. Do not use any tool in tightening the wing nut – firm tightening by hand is enough. Remove the pulley and separation wedges. Recommended practice is to tie the cable with nylon ties on both sides of the clamp.
