The HELICAL ROD Spacer is recommended for use on horizontal, twin conductor bundles. 

The functions of the HELICAL ROD Spacer are:

  • To provide uniform spacing of horizontally bundled subconductors
  • To insure consistent electrical characteristics
  • To minimize wind induced motions such as subconductor oscillation and aeolian vibration so that no conductor damage results
  • To keep the subconductors from entangling due to galloping, ice unloading, and fault currents.
