1972, Ritz launched the first complete set of tools
for maintenance on power grids. In 1973, an
association took place with a US company, a world
leader in the line tools industry.
Finally, in 1989, the interest of the US partner in the

GIN POLE FOR LOAD LIFTING


They are lightweight, mechanically resistant, and easy to install tools. They
have excellent safety and productivity gains in lifting equipment and
materials, as well as in the construction and maintenance of medium
voltage overhead lines.
They were manufactured with cast aluminum metal parts and RITZGLAS®
insulating tube.

IMPORTANT NOTES
- Gins are not designed for applications involving hand rope side pulling
or misaligned loading. Therefore, force direction must be parallel and
aligned with the gin.
- When calculating load capacity, consider a 10% loss due to friction on
pull ropes (friction).
Example: Using a double block lift system the maximum load to be lifted
will be 635 daN (1400 lb). A snatch blocks must be attached to the
base of the frame to pass the hand rope of the block.
Using a simple lifting system the maximum load will be 408 daN (900 lb).
Hoist load plus pulling force and frictional force equals gin capacity.

- RC400-0090

It can be coupled to a spacer saddle, which allows it to be mounted next to A
crossarms. It is coupled to the pole by a chain stretcher and tightened by a

- RC400-0578
This gin combines the advantages of a multiple tool in the use of lifting
equipment and materials.
They are coupled to the “T” double concrete pole by two galvanized steel
bolts with wing nuts using the pole holes. RC400-0315

In circular concrete poles, it is coupled by conventional metal straps. Due


to its length, the gin has a platform at its upper part of the pole, helping in
handling lifted equipment.
Since this tool has 04 clamping positions, the following rated working
capacity must be observed:

1° hole: ..................................... 100 daN (220 lb) at base side

2° hole: ..................................... 150 daN (330 lb)

INSULATED GIN POLE / CARGO BOOM
The heavy load lifting gin is made with RITZGLAS® square tube and has
A
three chain stretchers, with handwheels for coupling to the structures.
The square head at the top of the pole has two shackles for easy load
fixing. By attaching a collar to the coupling on top of this pole, a claw pole
can be used for increased stabilization.
The load lift boom has a square collar (RE400-0434) installed near its end.
This collar can be adjusted in three positions for better positioning of the
lifting load as well as its retention to the structure.
The lower coupling hinged saddle allows the boom to be moved 90°, i.e.
from horizontal to vertical and vice versa, as well as to rotate 180°.
Its upper head is similar to that of the gin pole.

NOTE
Rated work loads include pulling force.

SWIVEL BOOM WITH MAST
A

R070496
The boom pole with mast is intended for heavy duty high voltage
structures, particularly for removing insulator chains with the aid of the
cradle.
In the boom poles with mast (RC400-0469 and RH1973/H-10) two
saddles (R070496) already included are used to attach the gin to the pole:
one at the top and one at the bottom. These saddles have handwheel chain
stretchers.
In the boom poles with mast (RC400-0464, RC400-0465 and RH1973-814),
designed for tower mounting, two hardware models are used: a saddle
RC400-0602
(RC400-0602) mounted on the underside, which is attached to the tower,
with two sets of screws and angle jaws, and a triple fork (FLV01644-1),
already included, installed on the upper side, for coupling the rail poles.
When the mast is not necessary, the adapter (FLV18133-1) must be used
to couple the boom to the saddle (RC400-0602).
The coupling and the formation of the mast stabilization tripod on the metal
FLV01644-1 frame are made by three rail rods (RH4721-112) and respective metal
frame saddles (RM4742-3), both specified separately.
The rail rods have heat-treated aluminum alloy heads and forged steel
swivel eye.
On all models, the mast is held in the mast with a tourniquet pole
(RC400-0816) and a hoist (1500E), both specified separately.
FLV18133-1 The mobile collar on the square boom (RC400-0464, RC400-0465 and
RC400-0469) can be adjusted to three different positions for easy
operation of the assembly at different angles of the insulator chain. The
boom has at its end an auxiliary head with two shackles for retaining or
holding additional loads, tools, etc

ROPE
A The polypropylene rope was selected for its mechanical strength, reduced
elongation, and lightness.
This rope, like all other ropes for hot line work, should always be kept
clean and stored in a dry place and sheltered from the sun.
Although the polypropylene rope has good dielectric strength when new, it
is not insulating for hot line work. Therefore, if it contacts energized parts,
an insulating rope spacer must be used with it.
It comes in white color, with three-legged polypropylene multifilament
formation and a 220 meter roll.

Polydacron Rope
Three-legged fiber twisted rope combined with excellent service life and A
high strength-to-weight ratio. The rope is made of high-strength polyester
surface yarns wrapped in high tenacity polyolefin fiber. It also offers the
durability of polyester, but with greater strength than other ropes due to the
combination with polyolefin fiber.
The rope is not considered insulating for hot line work. Therefore, if it

A
the respective tools or traction equipment and from these to the work
structure. They are therefore widely used in cargo handling and traction of
electrical and telephone cables. Models made without any metal
components are easy to handle and pack due to their flexibility.
They are available in two basic types:

“Return Eye’’ Style


One size only. This model was primarily designed for the hanger
RC417-0133 arrangement, but can also be used with upright hooks and basket.

‘’Endless’’ Model
With five size options. This is the most versatile model of all. It can be used
in vertical, hanger or basket arrangements, and adapts well to the shape of
the load. It provides greater grip strength and upright support. It's easier to
use and longer lasting because it has no eyes that establish wear points.

The applicability of the grip-all clampstick can be further enhanced by


purchasing a RM1867 adapter.
Rated working capacity (traction) is 133 daN (293 lb) for all models.
The RE403-2543P collar can be used on any grip-all clampstick, especially
longer ones, which require a great deal of effort from the electrician to hold
it when in use, especially in the horizontal position.
The collar is attached to the clampstick by adjusting the halves of the ring
and tightening it by its screws. This ring has a central housing for the pole
and its control rod, thus not interfering with its operating mechanism. RE403-2543P

To maintain a safe insulation distance in hot line work, it should be used in


series with a rope and a tourniquet draw pole of appropriate insulating
length

WARNING
WORKLOADS - For the correct selection of tools, the loading information
of the structure must be used. When these values cannot be obtained, the
whole work structure must be analyzed before the load is applied.
When calculations are not possible (e.g. when a pole is slightly larger than
its adjacent pole) just consider the total weight of the adjacent spans as
the maximum workload. This does not apply to structures installed at high
points, which requires special analysis for load determination.
If the workload is higher than indicated in the table (for a specified pole),
use two wire tongs with double lift saddle or use a larger Ø wire tong.

WIRE TONG BAND
They are installed in the wire tong to be used as a pulling point in the
block, for the articulation of these poles during the removal and
subsequent approach of the conductor.
To ensure effective insulation between the block and live conductors, the

voltage class or more.
This tool is built in four different diameters, with a ring for direct contact

WIRE TONG SWIVEL
An important tool in the arrangement of two wire tongs for conductor
movement.
It is installed on the body of the wire tong head, which is coupled to the
conductor. The other wire tong is attached to the collar strap, forming a
pivoting assembly. Thus, the collar prevents two wire tongs, connected on
the same conductor cable, from twisting or even breaking it.
This tool is built in two diameters, the ring is made for direct contact with
C
the pole and in aluminum alloy for the free rotation of the pole, once
mounted to it, through 04 screws/nuts.
The circular handles are made of bronze alloy and the shackle is made of
aluminum alloy, which are interconnected with a steel screw to follow the
joints of the poles.

SADDLES AND COMPONENTS
This tool is used as a coupling point for poles, blocks, or masts, allowing
the hot poles to move away from the utility pole. If necessary, additional
space can be obtained using the extensor (RC400-0073).

They are attached to the pole by a chain stretcher and the final adjustment
is made by its rotating handwheel.
C
Made of aluminum alloy and heat treated to meet workload requirements
and lightness in handling.

Available models include: saddles with collar; with extensor and collar;
with shackle and with extensor and shackle.

The non-extensor pole saddle has a workload capacity of up to 454 daN


(1000 lb) and, when mounting the extensor, its working capacity reduces
to up to 363 daN (800 lb).

The crossarm type saddle (RM4744) is used for reduced workspace or


RM4744 already mounted with one or more pole saddles.

The shackle installed on the saddle body, in turn, provides freedom of


movement and allows the wire tong to move freely in either direction.

It can be used on 76 x 108 mm and 102 x 203 mm crossarms with a


maximum working load of 227 daN / 500 lb.

The chain stretcher (RM1848-W) is designed for easy saddle mounting,


preventing it from slipping or excessively shifting, keeping it firmly in place.

The length of the chain stretcher can be increased by using the chain
extension (RM1847, RM1847-3, RM1847-4) for poles with larger
diameters.

And the single lift saddle (RM4760-W) is used in “H” structure or when the
work space on the pole is limited. This saddle is equipped with a handle
and pin to connect the block and wire tong, respectively, allowing free
movement of both.
RM4760-W
When two saddles are required, they can be mounted at about the same
height, one on each side.

There is also an adapter (RM4760-2), which converts a single saddle into


a double lift saddle for the mounting of two poles.

These saddles are made of lightweight, easy-to-handle, aluminum alloy.


They allow up to 527 mm elevation in the conductors and support all wire
tong models.

TEREX RITZ 072 CONDUCTOR SUPPORT EQUIPMENT


The RC400-1016 single lift saddle (with RITZGLAS® insulating tube) has
the same application as the aluminum alloy lift saddle, but normally used in
higher voltage systems where more room is needed to lift the conductors.

Made of 915 mm long, Ø 51 mm RITZGLAS® tube, with the same load


capacity as the aluminum lift saddles: 454 daN single model and 340 daN
double model.

This tool provides a total conductor lift of up to 915 mm.


C
The saddle adapter (RM4760-2) is also available for this saddle.

The rope lashing saddle (RM1846-W) is a simple and practical tool as it


prevents improper tangling of the ropes. It is attached to the pole through
the chain stretcher and has six rings where the ropes can be tied. RC400-1016
Constructed of lightweight aluminum alloy, it has 915 mm of steel string
and rated working capacity of 454 daN (1000 lb).

The eye fastener (RM4740-14) is used to attach the eye of the wire tong
base to a pole saddle when it has the dual auxiliary arm function, allowing
the pole to exert rotational movements to connect to the stirrup on the dual
auxiliary arm.

The concrete pole saddle screw (RM4740) has the same function as the
(pole) saddle, however, for exclusive use in coupling masts to the square RM1846-W
concrete pole.

Simple and practical to install, this tool is inserted into one of the holes in
the pole and fastened with a wing nut. Constructed of galvanized steel,
coupling and bronze alloy butterfly nut, it has a total length of 295 mm.

The collars are versatile and very useful for both distribution and
transmission work, as they allow the stick to be fixed in arrangements with
other tools previously installed in the structure.

They are made of two halves of aluminum alloy, with locking screw and
bronze nut.

The inner walls of the collars are lined with a stainless steel blade to
protect the pole surface from mechanical damage

DUAL AUXILIARY ARM
It is designed for replacement of utility poles, crossarms, or insulators. Like
all RITZGLAS® tools it is lightweight and easy to assemble. In normal
constructions or eccentric crossarms this tool can be used as a side arm.
The wireholders can be moved to minimize the transposition distance of
the conductors from the insulators to this assembly as this tool is
sufficiently sized to use as a lift arm using three wire tongs.
C
NOTE
When using the dual auxiliary arm (with voltages greater than 15 kV) or
when supporting energized conductors in the rain or chance of rain,
installing insulators (RM4805-7) to the dual auxiliary arm under the
mounting wireholders is recommended to increase flow distance.
Wiping the insulating pole surface with treatment fabric (RM1904) on the
dual auxiliary arm pole is recommended when it is installed at night or
chance of rain conditions.

RC400-0517
- FLV30058-1
The conductor support pole (used for lifting conductor cables through its
upper head by its lifting wireholder) is adaptable to metal post straps
through support with a lower blade.

- RC400-1509 / RH4809-W
They are used to support energized distribution conductors during pole
replacement, repair, or pin or top insulators replacement.

They are equipped with a pole chain stretcher, over Ø 356 mm, and lifting
wireholders for conductors up to Ø 25.4 mm (for RC400-1509 with two
units and RH4809-W with one unit).

When using temporary support with voltages greater than 15 kV or when FLV30058-1
supporting energized conductors in the rain (or chance to rain), mounting
insulators (RM4805-7) is recommended as additional protection.

Rated working capacity on each wireholder: 68 daN (150 lb).

- RT400-1939 / RT400-1940
These two temporary support models have the same functions as RC400-
1509 and RH4809-W. The difference is the pole mounting system, which
in this case coma nylon tie tensioner. (RT400-2007)
RC400-1509
The same recommendations for using the insulator (RM4805-7) and the
rated workload also prevail for these two models.

- RT400-2272
The insulator change support is designed for special applications for
distribution insulator change, whose conductors are angled.
RH4809-W
Used in combination with a nylon strap hoist, it sustains the conductor
under mechanical stress during the insulator change and assists the
conductor back to its original location.

With this tool there is no need to use round covers or blankets on the pole
to insulate the hoist.
RT400-1940
To insulate the hoist with a nylon tie, two insulating rods (RC400-1175 or
RC400-2399 or RC400-2400) are used, connecting their hooks to the
wire grips and their eyes to the hooks of the hoist.

STRAIN LINK STICK
It is used in angle anchor structures as insulation between blocks and wire
grips. Large-span conductor loads and “H” structures sometimes exceed
the safe capacities for the wire tong. To supplement the wire tong, attach
the strain link stick to the conductor. This stick is also used to support the
center conductor in “H” type structures when changing insulators or
crossarms.
Constructed with RITZGLAS® insulating tube and aluminum alloy fittings, C
for better mechanical strength and lightness ratio, the swivel eye has
bearings for smooth and perfect rotation. The jaw edges of this tool are
rounded to prevent damage to conductors.
To meet a higher demand for tasks that require loads or varieties of wire

SECTIONAL STRAIN POLE (WITH SPLICE)
Designed to withstand the mechanical strain of conductor cables while
maintaining suspension or anchor insulator strings where their lengths
differ from conventional standards.
This pole consists of three parts: hot-end pole (energized), cold-end pole
(de-energized), and the fiberglass splicing sleeve, which is the central tube
responsible for joining the live and cold end poles.
C Constructed with Ø 51 mm RITZGLAS® tube, each has a clevis-type
bronze alloy head for connection to the yokes. The splicing sleeve is
manufactured by a special process, with Ø 76 mm exterior reinforced
fiberglass, and has equidistant holes every 100 mm, making it possible to
assemble the hot-end and cold-end poles, within pre-established lengths.
The poles also allow combinations with strain jacks in lengths 305, 610
and 915 mm for additional gain in overall assembly length.
Hot or cold-end poles, splice sleeve, strain jack, or cotter pins can be
purchased separately as spare parts.
NOTE
Although the splicing sleeve is manufactured to a standard length of 1.12
m, dead and hot-end poles can be purchased with special lengths to suit
the types and strains of each company's networks. For such supplies,
which will depend on the arrangements of the strings, their design must be
sent to our engineering department for technical feasibility analysis.

COMPOSITION OF THE SET

AUXILIARY STRAIN CARRIER
The Auxiliary Strain Pole is a lightweight, portable tool designed for quick
replacement of damaged insulators in de-energized suspension strings,
especially when the number of damaged insulators does not justify the
removal and lowering of the entire string for ground replacement.
However, the handling of the auxiliary strain pole requires special attention
regarding its installation in the network in order to avoid accidents.
C
SAFETY PROCEDURE
1. This tool is only used in de-energized networks.
2. Prior to the installation of the auxiliary strain pole, the electrician will first
need to install the complete strain set (described in the previous pages)
and suitable for the insulator string in order to relieve the mechanical
strain of the string and allow insulator decoupling.
3. After that, the auxiliary strain pole will be mounted on the insulator
directly above the one to be replaced (changing one insulator at a time).

WARNING
When coupling, make sure that the insulator cap is resting only on the
upper base of the yoke.

STATIC GROUND
It is designed to eliminate the nuisance of the electrostatic charge during
coupling and decoupling of insulator strings when working on energized
installations. It also dissipates the static charge through the copper cable
(16 mm² size x 2.0 m long) and clamp for connection to structure hardware
or conductor cables.
To ground the insulator string on the de-energized side, the grounding
clamp must be installed on the structure angle and the pole jaws must be C
installed on the insulator hardware closest to the structure.
For bare-hand work, the clamp should be installed to the energized
hardware and the stick jaws to the second insulator on the energized side.

- Cradle with bracket (side opening) for extra high voltage


It is used in anchor strings up to 800 kV to allow single or multiple string
removal.

TEREX RITZ 112 CONDUCTOR SUPPORT EQUIPMENT


Single Insulator Cradles
It is used to change insulators in the string itself or to lower it to the
ground. In anchor strings or angled strings, this cradle is used in
conjunction with support rods. As for “I” suspensions, strain poles are
used.
Constructed with Ø 38 mm RITZGLAS® tubes, this series of single
cradles has two steel pins at their front, which are used to support the
insulator string with a pair of wire tongs or strain link stick.
C
At the rear of the crib there are large eyes and ropes for coupling to the
structure as an anchor point. In this way, the insulators can be raised or
lowered to a more suitable position for replacement.
When lowering the insulator string is not necessary, the cradles are
mounted to the eyes located on the yokes coupled to the strain poles.

HOT LINE LADDER
Hot line ladders have many applications in high voltage energized
interventions, as they allow electricians to work in a convenient position
and perform line repairs in almost inaccessible locations.
All hooks in these ladders are made of surface-treated steel, with
Ø 25.4 mm (1”), and swivel to adapt to many positions on the structure.
For increased operational safety, the hooks features a surface-treated steel
chain and locking device.
The rungs in these ladders are made of Ø 32 mm RITZGLAS® tubes with
non-slip coating.
Besides the excellent bonding process between rails and rungs, the ladder
have steel rods installed near the ends.

Single Ladders with Hook


RH4903-8 to RH4903-12 series ladders are made of Ø 38 mm
RITZGLAS® tubes. RH4904-8 to RH4904-16 series ladders are built with
Ø 51 mm RITZGLAS® tubes, which make up their rails. All of them are
used exclusively for vertical work.
The ladders (RH4905-8 to RH4905-20 series) are made of Ø 64 mm
RITZGLAS® poles, which make up their rails, preferably used for
horizontal work.

It can be quickly mounted to structures so that the electrician is vertically
and horizontally well positioned.
These platforms quickly mount to the structure using two options:

- Fixed mount
For works that do not require frequent platform side position changes. The
platform is fixed to the pole with the chain stretcher or to the structure
through jaws.

- Pivot type
E It allows the electrician to rotate 180° horizontally on the mounted platform
and position it at left or right intermediate angles.
The board is 250 mm wide and is made of fiberglass, with non-slip floor
surface, preventing accidental slips.
Its handrail and tripod are a support and mounting point for the safety belt
fall arrest device.
Designed for pole mounting. To be mounted on metal structures, it must be
fitted with its exclusive saddles, as shown in the platform accessory tables.

Insulating Platform
It includes a 0.30 m insulation between the board and the pole-mounted
saddle through two Ø 51 mm RITZGLAS® tubes, so the insulating
platforms can be used in rubber glove and hot-stick operations in
energized lines up to 34.5 kV.

COVER-UP EQUIPMENT
APPLICATION, HANDLING AND CONSERVATION
Hot line protective covers are one of the main protective equipment for
interventions in low and medium voltage energized installations.

They are designed to electrically protect the entire work area in order to
prevent accidental phase-to-phase or phase-to-ground contacts during
service.

They are used in rubber glove work in energized lines and must be installed
with rubber insulating gloves or with from a distance, as they have metallic
brackets (eyebolts) for hot sticks.

They should only be used by suitably trained electricians for hot line work and
requires the following basic rules to be observed:

1. Under no circumstances should the electrician touch the covers except with
rubber gloves. Therefore, the electrician should always be aware of his/her
position in relation to them to avoid accidentally touching them..

This rule is valid for any other Cover used to protect energized parts.

2. Protective covers for poles, crossbars, horizontal supports, C-support, and


round covers are designed to prevent accidental contact of energized
conductors or cable ties with grounded surfaces of the structure.

INSULATING COVER-UP EQUIPMENT 165 TEREX RITZ


3. Protective covers should be handled with care to avoid breaking,
cracking, or scratching and should always be kept clean and dry.

4. Each protective cover should be carefully inspected prior to use for


cracks, deep scratches, deformation, or other damage, and to check
that they are clean and dry.

If necessary, it must be cleaned only with cotton fabrics. If dirt cannot


be completely removed, use mild soap and water.

5. Unlike permanent protective covers, which will be addressed at the end


of this group, protective covers are designed for temporary use to
perform a variety of hot line maintenance tasks, and must be removed
after the service.

CAUTION

Hot line protective covers are designed for a wide variety of power system
maintenance situations, and we provide appropriate covers for each type
F of equipment for increased efficiency and safety.

The electrician must carefully select the most suitable covers and in the
necessary amounts, to avoid dangerous improvisations before any task.

A visual inspection of the covers for cracks, deep scratches, dirt,


deformations, etc. is imperative for all hot line teams, because user safety
depends on perfect equipment maintenance. When in doubt, the covers
must not be used and sent for electrical testing.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Hot line protective covers are made of high dielectric, UV, and ozone
resistant thermoplastic.

Its orange color allows excellent visualization of the area under intervention.

Protective covers for hot stick work have metallic brackets for stick
operation.

PHASE TESTER
A portable equipment for easy and safe phase sequence determination and
comparison, as well as AC, phase-to-phase, or phase-to-ground voltage
readings in 1 kV to 80 kV transmission and distribution circuits.

The basic unit is comprised of a 1 kV to 16 Kv direct reading galvanometer


and a 6.50 m reel with 6,50 m of 16 kV shielded cable, mounted on two
RITZGLAS® sticks, which are high impedance units required for readings
on the instrument.

Voltages above 16 kV require extensions (RH1876-4 for 48 kV and


RH1876-2 for 80 kV). These extensions are coupled to the threaded end of
the instrument stick for indirect reading, that is, x3 full scale for 48 kV and
x5 full scale for 80 kV.

A pair of extensions must be used for 48 kV (RH1876-4) and two pairs for
80 kV (RH1876-2). Length of each unit: 630 mm.

The Calibration Device (H1876/B-AFT) is designed to calibrate the phase


detector before use, especially after a long inactivity period. It generates a
digital signal to the phase detector so that the user can compare the
galvanometer reading with the value on the calibration device display.

This Calibration Device must be ordered separately.

Power supply: 9V battery

INSULATOR TESTER
A portable device designed to quickly locate a faulty isolator in the insulator
chain in hot distribution and transmission circuits.
Its working principle is based on measuring the potential difference in the
tested insulator disc. A high impedance galvanometer indicates this
potential difference for comparisons with other isolator discs in the same
system. Thus, a defective isolator will show a reading considerably lower
than the others.
It can be used to evaluate pin insulators, one piece isolators, multipart pin
insulators, and disc insulators.
It is made of fiberglass tubing and housing, with quick and multiangular
adjustment of contact tips. The insulator tester is designed to test any
insulator measurement and to make other adjustments for better viewing.
The instrument has a 3-position switch on its backside to change sensitivity
for a better selection of pointer range.
The calibration device is designed to check the insulator tester before use,
especially after a long inactive period.
It generates a digital signal to the insulator to compare the values shown in
the calibration display and the insulator tester galvanometer reading.

RITZ TESTER
A portable device for periodic electrical testing of hot line insulated poles,
hot sticks and poles, hot line ladders and insulated scaffolds that detects
the leakage current caused by moisture, cracks, and impurities on or inside
the insulated poles.
Operation is easy and simple, and only requires a single operator, through
the direct contact of the Ritz Tester with the surface to be tested, indicating
a “PASS” or “FAIL” graph, according to the leakage current of the tested
element.
This instrument simulates the test specified in the ASTM F-711 standard. A
test carried out by the Ritz Tester offers a guarantee that the equipment is
ready for use. It can not be used as a reporting test.
There are four versions available:
LS-80
- LS-80 / LS-81 / RT-110 / RT-220
Models LS-80 and LS-81 (standard sizes), RT-110 and RT-220 (reduced
sizes) perform electrical tests corresponding to an applied voltage of 100
kV in 30 cm according to the standard. To perform the test, the stick must
be supported horizontally on two easels.

G - LS-80/WD / LS-81/WD
These models can be used for electrical tests on wet and dry sticks
through a key switch on the front panel of the instrument. In the wet
function, an electrical test corresponding to a voltage of 75 kV in 30 cm is
reproduced. And the dry function corresponds to a voltage of 100 kV in 30
cm.
RT-110 To better instruct users on this operation, a DVD with use instructions is
provided with the Wet/Dry Ritz Tester.

BARE-HAND STICK
It is designed to connect the tap wire of the conductive suit with the
energized conductor, in order to establish potential equalization, avoiding
discomforts to the electrician during the work.
It is through the bare-hand stick that the first contact of the electrician with
the energized conductor is made. Similarly, at the end of the work, it must
be disconnected last, thus avoiding electric arcs in the electrician.
Upon returning to ground potential, the stick must first touch the structure
to discharge static energy.
The FLV02544-1 is made of a Ø 32 mm RITZGLAS® tube and has a rest
strap for the stick and a tap wire for the conductive suit.

CONNECTION TYPE
Detachable clamp,: it is also mounted by twisting the stick, but the
electrician can remove the stick, leaving only the mounted clamp. (This
clamp has a quick coupling head to hold the clamp eye bolt firmly and
securely).

TEMPORARY GROUNDING SET
An effective electrical connection equipment with intentional low
impedance grounding, designed to ensure and maintain equipotential
bonding during interventions in the electrical installation, protecting
workers from accidental energization.
A proper specification of the temporary grounding set (ATR) is the first
principle to ensure efficiency and safety in performing de-energized line
work if the system is accidentally energized. Such specification must
match the characteristics of the electrical installation where the Temporary
Grounding Set will be installed.
Carefully read the following basic requirements for the correct
specification of the Temporary Grounding Set to ensure electrician safety.
For the specification of the ATR, the following characteristics of the
L
electrical installations must be known before using it:
a. Installation type and voltage level:
Overhead network or line (kV);
Substation (kV);
Secondary Network (LV) with bare or shielded cable;
Underground network (kV);
b. Maximum short-circuit current;
c. Protection system actuation time;

GROUNDING EQUIPMENT,
TELESCOPIC AND SECTIONAL HOT STICKS 217 TEREX RITZ
d. Structure Type:
Metal:
Concrete;
Wood;
e. Phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground distances;
f. Phase and ground conductor sections where the ATR will be installed.
Maintenance on powered off overhead networks is, at first glance, an
apparently safe condition to carry out the work. However, they may be
mistakenly energized by several common factors:
- Operational errors;
- Accidental contact with other live circuits;
- Voltages induced by adjacent lines;
- Lightning discharges, even if distant from the workplace;
- Third-party power sources
Unfortunately, the factors described here are not theoretical facts, or even
impossible to occur, as maintenance workers tend to imagine. This is
because practice has shown us the truth through numberless accidents
that occur every year at electric companies.
Temporary grounding and shorting are the main protection of people
working on de-energized lines so they must be seen as their main work
tool.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION SEQUENCE OF THE TEMPORARY


GROUNDING SET
1. Check that the line is de-energized using the Voltage Detector mounted
to the RITZGLAS® hot stick.
2. Insert the Ground Screw Rod into the ground and connect the clamp
(ground) to its rod. The screw rod must be inserted as deep as
possible, leaving above the ground just enough space to connect the
clamp.
3. Using the RITZGLAS® Hot Stick and proceeding as in hot line work,
the phase clamps must be slowly lifted and connected to the central
phase.
4. Using the RITZGLAS® Hot Stick, the second and third clamps must be
L connected to the side phases, which concludes the phase-to-ground
interconnection.
5. Only after installing the grounding set, must the electrician have access
to the conductors. This is to say that a line can only be deemed de-
energized after being properly grounded

GROUNDING EQUIPMENT,
TEREX RITZ 218 TELESCOPIC AND SECTIONAL HOT STICKS
NOTES
1. The short-circuit current rating of the set is limited to the specified
grounding and shorting cable cross-section.
The cable specification may have its cross-section (mm²) and/or length
changed, both to increase or to decrease it, according to the short-
circuit power of the electrical system where the set will be used.
2. Additionally, RITZGLAS® hot sticks can be supplied with other lengths
according to operational needs. (See specific page for this product).
3. The bag has reinforced edges, with internal dividers for the proper
storage of hot stick sections, a carrying handle, and an additional
pocket for a tool head.
This bag must be ordered separately, as it is optional.
Color patterns desired by the client may be supplied provided it is
previously agreed upon when requesting the quote.

The temporary grounding rod for secondary networks is used for
maintenance services in de-energized low voltage overhead lines.
The electrician can use it to connect phase conductors to the neutral
conductor simultaneously, shorting them with a single move.
This rod is constructed with a RITZGLAS® Ø 25 mm tube, aluminum
jaws, and rubber storm skirt, delimiting the grip area.
The clamping jaws are connected to the conductor through compression
springs, providing faster installation without damaging the conductors.
The aluminum bar used to interconnect the jaws has a screw at its lower
end to connect a ground cable

STATIC GROUNDING SET
This static grounding set is designed to reliably remove static loads on de-
energized systems such as: connection terminals and conductors on
transformers or generators.
To operate this tool, first connect the grounding clamp to a safe ground
point.
Then, using the copper hook, install the stick at the point where the static
charge must be discharged from the system.
When maintenance is complete, use the same sequential procedure
adopted in the installation, but in the opposite order. That is: first remove
the ground stick from the work point and then disconnect the grounding
clamp.

GROUNDING CLAMP
Ball Studs and Ball-and-Socket Clamps for
Temporary Grounding
The ball stud and ball-and-socket clamp are designed to solve countless
temporary grounding situations where space or contact surfaces are
limited.
In switchgears, especially with rectangular buses, where conventional
ground clamps have dimensions that preven their use, the ball-and socket
clamp stands out for its versatile design and easy operation.
This clamp is very popular in electrical installations such as:
- switchgears;
- indoor and outdoor substations;
- overhead cranes;
- hot line vehicles;
- painted transmission line structures where optimum electrical contact
with conventional clamps is not obtained.

Ball studs are designed for permanent installations in buses, bus junctions,
terminals or other parts of the electrical installation, establishing the points
necessary for their proper temporary grounding. Therefore, purchasing
them in sufficient quantities for such use is recommended.

To best suit the user needs, they are arranged with seven variations in
connecting ball length and position.

Cutout Grounding Clamps
Specially designed clamp for temporary grounding of the cutout in medium
voltage networks by installing it on the bottom base of the cutout after
removal of the cartridge.
Cables can be attached directly to this clamp (either to the conventional
grounding clamp or to the “L” or “T” brackets). Another great use for this
RC600-0861 clamp is that it prevents the cutout from being accidentally switched while
it is in the mains.
The body and studs “L” and “T” are made of aluminum alloy with a bronze
alloy eyescrew.

Maximum short-circuit current: - 30 cycles: 20 kA

HEIGHT MEASURING HOT STICK
VTT-1/2 to VTT-1/9 can be supplied with metric graduations, making the
telescopic hot stick a tool for vertical spacing measurements.
There are numerical marks every 10 cm and intermediate marks every
centimeter. To perform a reading, the stick must be supported on the
ground in the vertical position and as the sections are handled, the
operator has access to the reading within visual range.
To purchase this tool simply include the suffix “M” in the telescopic stick
model reference code.
E.g.: VTT-1/7M (9.180 ± 0.01 m length).
The VTT stick modular system is designed so that only the required
number of sections for each service is used. By pressing the locking
buttons, the unnecessary lower sections are released and removed,
making the telescopic stick lighter and more comfortable for tasks.
Either section may be supplied separately if replacement is required..

GROUNDING EQUIPMENT,
TEREX RITZ 266 TELESCOPIC AND SECTIONAL HOT STICKS
SECTIONAL HOT STICKS
The take-apart hot stick is usually supplied with a universal head, which (in
addition to being suitable for use of on-load breaker switch maneuvers)
allows the coupling of switch heads and a series of universal tools specially
designed for many different applications such as:
- Switches;
- Fuse-switches operation;
- Fuse cartridge removal and installation;
- Handling of voltage detector;
- Mounting and removal of temporary grounding assemblies and hot line
clamps;
- Life wire installation;
- Tree pruning;
- Network cleaning;
- Light bulb replacement, etc.
The take-apart hot stick is made of RITZGLAS® tube.
In order to make the handling, storage and transportation more practical,
the Sectional Hot Stick is composed of standardized sectional elements,
which are interchangeable, and attached with quick spring-action locking
pins.
Its total length according to each working voltage is obtained from the
number of its sections, which may vary from 1 to 5.
There are two versions depending on diameter:
- standard model: Ø 38 mm handle and middle sections and Ø 32 mm
top section.
- light model: Ø 32 mm handle and middle sections and Ø 25 mm top
section.
