Silicone Overhead Line Cover

Product Details

Insulcover is a Wrap Around Line Cover that provides retrofit insulation for Overhead Conductors to help prevent electrical outages caused by trees or wildlife coming into the contact with distribution lines. It is manufactured from high quality Non-tracking Cross-linked Polyolefin material. Gala Overhead Line Covers can be used in many applications upto 66 kV. Insulcover is designed to insulate existing bare lines without costly conductor replacement expenditure or additional line hardware. Installation is easy by using the Split Insulation Tube Tool which remains stationary at single location.tric strength v Excellent UV stabilized & Weather resistant v Tracking & Erosion resistant v Prevent Conductor from Chemical corrosion effected by strong acid, alkali, salt, etc. v Halogen free v Insulcover is available in four sizes that covers conductors up to 800 sq. mm. v GOC comes with Mastic for high voltage applications Technical Specification* Selection Chart: Gala Conductor Size Conductor Size Packaging Code Sq. mm. in Dia.

ASTM D638 Overhead Line Cover: * The above mentioned values are typical analytical values obtained on material when tested as per applicable standards under controlled laboratory conditions and should not be construed as specifications for the product Gala Silicon Overhead Line Covers are made from high quality non-tracking silicon rubber that are designed for field installation over bare conductors. These covers provide a layer of electrical insulation for Phase-to-Phase and Phase-to-Ground protection from bird and animals. The GSOC provides electrical insulation, UV resistance and tracking resistance. Silicon Self-fusing Tape can be applied on it for better insulation. Features & Benefits : Excellent UV and Ozone resistance. Excellent Tracking resistance. Good Di-electric strength. Protection for leads and jumpers. Highly flexible silicone tubing makes application easy. Flame Retardant. No special installation tool required. Does not require further derating conductors. Helps prevent contacts by eliminating gaps in coverage. Provides Insulation Enhancement upto 765 kV GSOC-M for voltage level upto 12 kVGSOC-H for voltage level upto 36 kVGSOC-EH for voltage level upto 765 kV Gala Silicone Interlocking Overhead Line Covers are made from high quality non-tracking silicone rubber that are designed for field installation over bare conductors. These covers provide a layer of electrical insulation for Phase-to-Phase and Phase-to-Ground protection from bird and animals. The GSIOC provides electrical insulation, UV resistance and tracking resistance. Provide Insulation upto 33 kV. General Product Properties: High Di-electric strength Tracking & Erosion resistant
