The RCMLC cover is a cold applied wraparound cover that provides retrofit insu-lation for overhead conductors to help prevent electrical outages caused by incidental contact from tree branches or wildlife The RCMLC cover may be applied selectively in a aingle location.
The tool may be manually or automati-cally operated using a gasoline powered drill The tool forms closes and feeds the RCMLC cover along the conductor with speed and consistency
The RCMLC hand tool allows for quick installation on short lengths of conductors especially in substations.
