Cable Spiking Gun

CST200 Cable Spiking Gun – Product Overview

The cable spiking gun is divided into two parts; the firing head (Gun Body) and the controller:

1. The firing clamp of the cable spiking gun is a low-speed piston-type device designed for piercing the cable.
2. Its structure is light weight is very simple to install on the cable for operation.
3. The cable spiking gun is designed to operate remotely from a safe distance, causing a short circuit on a live cable which will cause a flash and discharge.
4.  A single gun body can only produce one short circuit point on the cable at a time, and a double gun body can produce two short circuit points on the cable at a time.
5. Since the three-phase cable is usually in the shape of a multi core cable, if a single gun has pierced the cable, it is possible to be in the gap of a multi core Cable (that is, the gap between the two phases) this is why 2 spiking gun bodies are supplied so the operator can use spiking head A and B simultaneously which in turn will ensure a short circuit is created.
