FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: clamp contains two brackets: a clamping and a support bracket for wrapping and holding the overhead power line wire between them. The brackets are mounted on axes fixed on the base of the clamp, and can be rotated on these axes, while the clamping bracket is provided with a spring mounted on its axis to move this bracket towards the stop bracket. The support bracket is equipped with a spacer rod to keep it at a distance from the clamping bracket for the passage of the wire into the clamping space of the brackets, and a folding thrust lever that keeps it stationary relative to the clamp base in the “short-circuit indicator on the wire” position. In addition, a stop is made on the side surface of the support bracket, and the end of the short arm of the folding support lever is bent 90 degrees towards the support bracket, and the height of the stop is less than the height of the bent end of the short arm of the folding support lever. In the “short-circuit indicator on the wire” position, there is a gap between the bottom of the clamping bracket and the horizontal surface of the base, which allows the support bracket to be moved from its place when the folding support lever is turned upwards due to the force developed by the clamping bracket.
EFFECT: simplification of the design implementation of the device with a decrease in the thickness of the base of the clamp.
