Abstract
A suspension bracket and apparatus for a bundle conductor has a yoke plate suspended at opposite sides thereof by respective insulator strings. To reduce high voltage gradients across the lowermost insulators of the strings, one or more of the sub-conductors is clamped to the upper side of the yoke plate between the strings. To facilitate 'clipping in' of this sub-conductor by providing a temporary suspension connection between one of the strings and the yoke plate in order to allow that string to be uncoupled and thereby to allow the sub-conductor to be raised past the uncoupled string, the yoke plate is provided with a cylindrical opening extending transversely of the axis of that string by which the temporary connector can be connected to the yoke plate.
