High Voltage | Operational Insulating Rod | for Substations | Adjustable | up to 220V

  • High Voltage | Operational Insulating Rod | for Substations | Adjustable | up to 220V

    Code: ELBILO-220

    This high-voltage adjustable operational stick (hotstick) is designed for electrical work in high-voltage environments, where it is crucial to protect the worker from contact with conductive surfaces. This tool is particularly suitable for the maintenance of power transmission and distribution networks and for addressing emergencies that require work to be performed without interrupting the power supply.

  • Technical Specifications

    Material: Made from high-quality fiberglass, which ensures excellent insulation and resistance to stress. Application: Designed for use in high-voltage systems. Nominal Voltage: 220 V (although the fiberglass construction is typically suitable for much higher voltages when using this operating rod at a safe distance from wires). Design: Telescopic and adjustable, allowing the rod to be extended or shortened as needed. Shape: Round, providing a comfortable grip and control during use.

    Usage Areas

    Electrical Transmission and Distribution Networks: Used for the maintenance and repair of power lines that must be serviced without interrupting the power supply.
    Equipment Inspection and Maintenance: Suitable for checking high-voltage insulators, transformers, and switches, eliminating electrical hazards for personnel.
    Emergency Work: This insulating rod enables safe emergency work on power lines and equipment.
    Industrial Facilities: Suitable for use in industrial and energy facilities where reliable, continuous power systems are essential.
    Main Advantages (Pros)

    High Insulation and Safety: Made from fiberglass, which is well-insulating and resistant to environmental factors, ensuring worker protection from electric currents.
    Adjustable Length: The telescopic design allows the rod to be extended or shortened, which is particularly useful for working with power lines of varying heights or reaching distant equipment.
    Strength and Lightness: Fiberglass gives the rod strength and durability, while maintaining a light weight for easier maneuvering.
    Corrosion and Environmental Resistance: Fiberglass is resistant to corrosion, chemical effects, and temperature changes, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
    Ergonomic Shape: The round shape provides a good grip, allowing workers to perform actions accurately and safely.
    Disadvantages (Cons)

    Nominal Voltage: Although it states 220 V, this specification can be misleading, as this tool is generally intended for use with higher voltages, especially for professional work. It is important to know the exact voltage rating for which the rod has been tested.
    Limited Suitability for Specific Tasks: This insulating rod may be too long or unsuitable for work in confined spaces or narrow areas.
    Maintenance and Handling: Fiberglass tools require periodic inspection and proper maintenance to prevent cracks or other damage that could reduce their insulating properties.
    Limited Field of View During Use: The telescopic design can obstruct visibility, especially when working with high-up objects in low-visibility areas.
    The adjustable-length operating rod is a reliable and safe solution for the maintenance and repair of power networks. This high-quality fiberglass insulating tool provides excellent insulation, is lightweight, sturdy, and durable, making it ideal for power transmission line and high-voltage equipment maintenance without interrupting the power supply.
