An apparatus is provided for securing to and collecting power from an electrical conductor, including a current transformer comprising a core and an electrical winding that receives an induced current from magnetic flux generated according to alternating current present on the electrical conductor, and a clamping mechanism that attaches the apparatus to the electrical conductor. According to various aspects, apparatus may include a housing that encloses circuitry for monitoring conditions of the electrical conductor, where the circuitry includes one or more sensors, and wireless communications circuitry.

Adjustable overhead conductor monitoring device

The fluid section of an air operated double diaphragm pumpconsists of two fluid housings, an inlet manifold, and an outlet manifold. The housings are to be made in two parts. The preferred framematerial is glass fiber reinforced with polypropylene that is overmolded into final shape with an encapsulating material. The frameis designed so that the encapsulating materialcan flow from one side to the other allowing for a mechanical lock between the top surfaceand the bottom so as not to rely on chemical adhesion between the two materials.

Overmolded diaphragm pump

An apparatus is provided for securing to and collecting power from an electrical conductor including a wire clamp that clamps to and secures the apparatus to the electrical conductor, a current transformer ('CT') that clamps to the electrical conductor and collects power from the electrical conductor, and a housing including a cavity that encloses circuitry associated with the apparatus. According to various aspects, the circuitry may include one or more sensors and wireless communications circuitry, and the CT may include a core and an electrical winding that receives an induced current from magnetic flux generated according to alternating current present on the electrical conductor.

Apparatus and method for mounting an overhead device

Ajustable overhead conductor monitoring device

An apparatus is provided for securing to and collecting power from an electrical conductor including a wire clamp that clamps and secures to an electrical conductor, a current transformer ('CT') that clamps to the electrical conductor and collects power from the electrical conductor, and a housing that supports the wire clamp and the current transformer. According to various aspects, the apparatus may include a wire clamp including a compression post and clamp arms that surround and compress an electrical conductor in a closed position of the wire clamp, where each of the clamp arms includes pivot posts, and the clamp arms pivot between closed and open positions. According to other various aspects, the apparatus may include a split magnetic core that surrounds an electrical conductor in a closed position of the current transformer, where the split magnetic core includes pivot posts, and the split magnetic core pivots between closed and open positions.
