TESCO Socket Safety Clip
TESCO’s Socket Safety Clip has been designed to give meter technicians a way to temporarily reassure that a hot socket will not affect a faulty meter socket jaw. The danger zone of a meter socket jaw is 5 lbs. of holding force. At 5 lbs., arcing can occur, resulting in a more serious problem, failure, or electrical fire. The Socket Safety Clip improves the holding force of a meter socket jaw to close to 20 lbs. and can withstand temperatures beyond 400 degrees F/204.4 degrees C. This temporary solution simply clips around the jaws of a meter socket until the socket can be replaced. The TESCO Socket Safety Clip gives utilities an alternate option to disconnecting the service. The Socket Safety Clip is intended for one-time use and is recommended for each jaw, regardless of the quantity of faulty jaws per meter socket. Features • Single-piece, injection molded with non-conductive, highly- durable, high-temperature plastic • Improves holding force to 20 lbs. per meter socket jaw • Temporary solution to alleviate disconnecting service • UL-94 VO Flame Rating
