This tool has been designed to eliminate discomforts derived from the electro-static discharge during the connection and disconnection of insulator strings, when performing works on energized systems.

It dissipates the static discharge with the use of a cooper cable (size 16 mm² x 2 m long) and a clamp for connection to the structure framework or conductor cables..

Grounding clamp must be connected to the structure bracket and the jaws of the hot stick must be connected to the hardware of the insulator closest to the structure.

When working using barehand method, the clamp must be connected to the energized hardware and the jaws of the hot stick, to the second insulator, at the hot end.

The Static Ground is manufactured with diam. 32 mm x 0.76 m (1.25" x 2.5 ft) overall length Ritzglas® pole.

The jaws (“pliers” type) are made of cooper alloy and were designed for insulator fittings of from diam. 64 to 152 mm (2.5" to 6").

The clamps for connection to the structure are available in two versions: with “T”-type screw and with eye-screw. Both are made of cooper alloy and the body of the clamp is made of aluminum alloy.
