Standard duty clamp, manufactured in high strength glass reinforced polyamide (GRP), for single cables. The Ellis Solus clamp has been designed, developed, tested and manufactured in accordance with IEC61914 (Cable Cleats for Electrical Installations). The cable clamp is available in 3 sizes and is able to accommodate cables ranging from Ø 19 – Ø 75mm. Solus can also be stacked to allow new cable runs to be added quickly and easily. The material used to manufacture this product is a high strength heat stabilised, low smoke, zero halogen, glass reinforced polyamide. This gives the product an extremely long lifespan and is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications. Single or double bolt fixing options are available depending on the installation.
Thorne & Derrick International, based in the UK, stock the complete range of cable cleats and cable hangers manufactured by Ellis Patents including Single Hole cleats for short circuit retention and cable protection of LV (Low Voltage), MV (Medium Voltage) and HV (High Voltage) and mechanically tested in accordance to IEC 61914.
Ellis Patents Solus single cable clamps are high strength glass reinforced polyamide single cable cleats for cable diameters ranging from Ø 19-75mm – these 1 hole cleats come in 3 sizes with single or double bolt fixing options and are suitable for outdoor or indoor cable containment.
International Standard IEC 61914:2009
Ellis Patent cable cleats with international specifications are used to clamp and retain LV MV HV cables including 11kV and 33kV networks depending on short-circuit calculations according to IEC61914 calculations.
