As low-voltage (LV) power distribution networks keep expanding globally, utility operators and EPC contractors demand cable tapping hardware combining mechanical safety, stable electrical performance and simple field installation. The bare cable piercing connector has become a preferred branch-connection option, removing the need for cable stripping and lowering human-error risks during site work. The ZOP-2N bare cable piercing connector is engineered for secure branch connections within low-voltage overhead systems. Produced from high-grade polymer, aluminium and stainless-steel materials and validated through rigorous in-house laboratory testing, it delivers dependable field performance.
The ZOP-2N is manufactured by Jera Line as a mechanical bare cable piercing connector built for creating branch connections on bare conductors in low-voltage overhead power networks. It adopts torque-controlled shear-head technology: the aluminium-alloy shear-head nut breaks off automatically once the preset installation torque of 13 N·m is reached. This mechanism creates consistent contact pressure on cable conductors without any stripping or compression equipment. Installers only require a standard hex key to complete tapping work. This design streamlines field work and reduces installation mistakes caused by improper tightening force.
The torque-controlled bare cable piercing connector ZOP-2N is designed for branching aerial ABC cable during low-voltage line constructions, covering main cables of 16-95 mm² and tap cables of 4-35 mm². It connects bare conductors in overhead power lines, ensuring reliable and secure electrical connections. Its shear-head design eliminates compression-tool requirements, with the bolt head shearing off automatically to signal correct installation torque.
Main Applications:
1.LV Aerial Bundled Cable (ABC) branch connections
2.Bare conductor tapping in overhead power distribution lines
3.Low-voltage overhead line construction and maintenance
The ZOP-2N delivers safe, labour-saving and cost-effective tapping solutions for low-voltage power networks, making it a practical hardware choice for utility-grade projects.
Benefits of partnering with Jera Line include:
Founded in 2012, Yuyao Jera Line is a specialist manufacturer for overhead and underground MV-LV cable accessories.
