Abstract :
Factory-formed dead-ends have been utilized to terminate conductors on distribution lines for decades. Conductor dead-ends on transmission lines have traditionally been of a bolted or compression design. The advent of high temperature conductors and the desire by utilities to operate lines at higher temperatures (increased power flow) has spurred the development of appropriate conductor hardware. Specially designed factory-formed dead-ends for high temperature conductors have been developed, tested in the laboratory and on field test lines, and installed on operating transmission lines
