How to Install the Strain Clamp? And What are the Advantages of Strain Clamps?

Image
Strain Clamp refers to the hardware used to fix the wire to withstand the tension of the wire and hang the wire on the strain string or tower.    According to different structures and installation conditions, strain clamps can be roughly divided into two categories.  The first category: The strain clamp must withstand the full tension of the wire or lightning conductor. And the grip strength of the clamp is not less than 90 of the rated tensile strength of the wire or lightning conductor to be installed, but it is not used as a conductor. This type of clamp can be removed after the wire is installed and used separately. This kind of clamp has bolt-type tension clamp and wedge-type tension clamp.  The second category: In addition to bearing the full tension of the wire or lightning protection wire, the tension clamp is also used as a conductor. Therefore, once this type of clamp is installed, it cannot be disassembled, which is also called a dead line clamp. Becaus...

How to Distinguish Between Single-Mode Fiber and Multi-Mode Fiber?

  Optic fiber is a flexible transparent fiber made of extruded glass or plastic, slightly thicker than human hair. Optical fiber is the most commonly used means for transmitting light at both ends, and it is widely used in optical fiber communications. Optical fiber has longer transmission distance and higher bandwidth than wired cable. An optical fiber is usually composed of a transparent core with a low refractive index and a transparent cladding material. As an optical waveguide, the optical fiber causes total reflection of light in the core. In general, there are two types of fibers: the supported multiple propagation paths or transverse mode fibers are called multimode fibers (MMF). In addition, the one that supports a single mode is called Single Mode Fiber (SMF). 1. What is Single-Mode Optical Fiber ? In optical fiber communication, single-mode fiber (SMF) is an optical fiber that directly transmits optical signals in the transverse mode. Single-mode fiber runs at a...
