What Is a Straight Connector?

A Straight Connector is a mechanical clamp designed to connect two earthing conductors end-to-end, extending conductor length while maintaining electrical continuity and mechanical integrity.

Primary Functions

• Joins conductors in a straight line

• Maintains low-resistance electrical continuity

• Prevents joint loosening due to vibration or thermal cycling

• Enhances safety and grounding reliability

• Supports compliance with electrical safety standards

---

Why Straight Connectors Are Essential in India

Indian earthing systems often require long conductor runs across varied terrain and structures. Straight connectors are essential because they:

• Enable reliable extension of earthing conductors

• Reduce joint resistance and overheating risks

• Withstand soil pressure, moisture, and temperature variation

• Allow easy inspection and maintenance

• Improve long-term performance of grounding systems

They are critical for both power earthing and lightning protection applications.
