  • 1. What does the Socket Eye do?

    Fixing and supporting string insulators: ‌ bowl hanging plates are used to support and secure string insulators, ‌ string insulators are used for the connection between the insulating wire and the support (‌ such as cross arm or beam) ‌. ‌ Through the bowl hanging plate, ‌ insulator string is firmly fixed on the power pole or support, ‌ to maintain a safe distance between the conductor and the support, ‌ to prevent the direct contact between the conductor and the support, ‌ to ensure the insulation performance of the line. ‌
    Attaching wire rope or cable: ‌ bowl head hangings can also be used to attach wire rope or cable, ‌ to secure it to a power pole or other desired location. ‌ These wire ropes or cables can be used for hoisting equipment, ‌ supporting line accessories, etc. ‌

  • 2. What is a WS Socket Eye used for?
