CLIMATIC CONDITIONS:
The overall climate is moderate hot, humid, tropical, highly polluted and conductive to rust and
fungus growth. The clamps/connector shall be given tropical and fungicidal treatment and shall be
capable of satisfactory operation under the hot and humid climatic conditions that would prevail at
sites. The climatic conditions are prone to wide range of variation in ambient conditions. The
materials offered shall be suitable for installation at any of the switchyards in State.
APPLICABLE STANDARDS:
The Compression Connectors and Terminations conform to the latest editions of the standards specified
below and amendments therefore.
IEC 61284 (1997) Overhead lines. Requirements and tests for fittings.
IS 617 Cast aluminum and its alloys ingots and castings for general engineering
purposes - specification
IS 638 Specification for sheet rubber jointing and rubber insertion jointing
SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS:
Clamps and fittings shall be so designed that the post insulators shall not be subject to any
abnormal stress due to thermal changes in conductor. All the clamps and fittings shall enable the
connection to be as short as possible. Wherever possible they shall be in two separate halves. No ‘U’
bolts shall be used.
The data in respect of bus bars and equipment for which clamps and
connectors are required shall be given.
The fittings should also have marked upon them the name of the
Manufacture.
DESIGNS:
Responsibility of satisfactory design of the clamps/connectors to safely withstand the specified
mechanical stresses and carry the rated current without exceeding the temperature rise specified, shall
solely rest with the bidder. For this purpose, a minimum factor of safety 2 (two) shall be taken
into account.
TEST:
Individual fittings, clamps, connectors shall be subjected to following Type, Acceptance and Routine
Tests.

The bidder shall have to submit copies of type test certificates. Type test reports shall not be older than
FIVE years and shall be valid up to the expiry of the validity of the offer. of any Govt. Recognized
Laboratory for consideration along with the technical bid, otherwise, bidder should confirm to arrange
for conducting these tests at their cost before commencement of supply.
Material:
The Aluminium /Aluminium Alloy / Compression Connectors and terminations shall be of high strength
and high conductivity aluminum / aluminum alloy / Bimetallic better than or equivalent to IS 617.
In the case of Bi-metallic Connectors, Parts shall be high conductivity copper or high copper content alloy
99.5% or better IS 191.
The Components shall be properly proportioned to minimize stress concentration, corrosion and
deterioration by galvanic action.
The internal faces of aluminum fittings shall be coated with oxide Inhibiting Grease/ Compound to
improve electrical contact and ensure maximum electrical performance of fittings.
Workmanship :
They shall be free from sharp edges, burs and swarf. The contact surface of the Compression Connectors
shall be uniform to provide effective contact with the conductors.
