Key specifications

• Dimensions: 57x57mm
• Material: Galvanized steel
• Configuration: 2-hole cross clamp
• Application: Lightning protection and grounding

How to use

To install the ELKO-BIS 2.1 OC, position the conductors at the desired crossing point and place the clamp over them. Align the holes and insert the appropriate fasteners to secure the assembly. Ensure that the clamp is tightened sufficiently to maintain firm contact between the conductors, which is essential for the electrical continuity of the grounding system. Regular inspections should be performed to ensure the fasteners remain secure.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the diameter of the conductors being connected to ensure compatibility with the clamp dimensions.
• Check local electrical regulations regarding the use of galvanized components in your specific grounding system design.
• Ensure the quantity purchased matches the requirements of your installation layout.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and safety, always ensure that the contact surfaces are clean and free of debris before installation. Periodically check the tightness of the connections as part of your routine maintenance schedule for the lightning protection system.
