The ZOP-1 insulation piercing tap cable connector is engineered to provide reliable branching of low-voltage aerial bundle conductors to customer service lines. Its robust design incorporates fully insulated contact plates that ensure optimal conductivity while maintaining safety in live-line environments.
Overhead insulation piercing connector ZOP-1 enables efficient installation without stripping cable insulation, reduce the labor cost. The connector is used for utility overhead cable distribution networks, especially in urban or densely populated areas where live-line work is essential.

Test
Aerial insulation Piercing ConnectorZOP-1is rigorously tested to ensure safe and reliable performance when branching low-voltage aerial bundle conductors on live lines.
The tests are according to international standard EN-50483:2009 in the third party laboratory, the test scopes are as following:
• Visual examination
• Dimensional and material verification
• Test for permanent marking
• Test for mechanical damage to the main conductor
• Branch cable pull-out test
• Connector bolt tightening test
• Shear head function test
• Low temperature impact test
• Dielectrical voltage test in water
• Low temperature assembly test
• Corrosion ageing test (Method 1)
• Climatic ageing test (Method 1)
• Electrical ageing test
Jera Line also have a in-house factory laboratory with different testing equipments.
Such as:
