As of mid-2022, all KonNx UK aluminium high voltage couplers now dispatch with our battery-free LED Live Line Indicator as a standard feature. Developed using modern LED technology, the use of LED’s allows the Live Line Indicator to be seen even in the bright daylight of open-air operational sites. Redesigned in early 2024, the LED Live Line Indicator is now flush with the coupler for easier cleaning and maintenance.
Safety is our number one priority, our goal being to provide those working with high voltages peace of mind with safe, high quality power supply solutions. The design of couplers within this range provides even greater earth connectivity and pilot control. Additional features of KonNx UK’s high voltage aluminium couplers include:
- Full phase to earth segregation with earth;
- High mPa aluminium material;
- Earth pilot connectors; and
- Silicone seal for face.
