WEDGTAP connector for Network Rail

Manufactured from high conductivity materials the connector uses an inner wedge that is power driven between the main and tap conductors locking them into a 'C' shaped outer body.

Manufactured from high conductivity materials the connector uses an iner wedge that is power driven between the main and tap conductors locking them into a 'C' shaped outer body. A wiping action takes place during installation along the contact faces of the conductors effectively removing surface oxides and supplementinf wire brushing.

The WEDGTAP connectors incorporate many faetures hitherto unavailable in a single design concept.

•Easily assembled onto the conductor

•Provides visual indication of correct connector/conductor combination prior to installation.

•Disconnectable

•Maintains full tensile value of conductors

•Withstands high fault currents
