Scope
This guide defines testing procedures for the slip and pull-out strength testing of bolted dead end strain clamps for use on transmission and distribution lines. This guide covers initial certification testing. For routine acceptance testing@ refer to IEEE Std C135.61TM.1 Purpose The purpose of this guide is to provide a repeatable and standardized methodology for performing mechanical slip and pull-out strength testing for a bolted dead end clamp and conductor combination. A bolted dead end clamp and conductor combination tested in accordance with this guide should give reasonable assurance to the user that the clamp and conductor combination will perform in a satisfactory manner@ provided they have been installed in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. 1 Information on references can be found in Clause 2.
