Power Connectors | 33, 66 and 132 kV ranges
Alcomet are continually striving to provide quality and excellence, always aiming to ‘make the difference’ for our customers. Which is why, when our customers told us they were struggling with long lead times for power connectors, we listened.
Alcomet have launched a range of power connectors for use on 33, 66 and 132kV sites up to 2000amp.
As the electrical industry seeks to minimise cost without compromising on quality and continuity of service provision, Alcomet understand the importance of speedy service, whilst providing cost effective solutions.
Our technical support is available 24 / 7 to assist with any queries.
As an endorsement of quality and excellence, HM Queen Elizabeth II honoured Alcomet with a Queens Award for Enterprise: Innovation, expressly for the development and launch of the Guardian Security Range.
We continue to work with the electrical market, responding to its needs and making a difference for our customers.

Earthing SpigotsThe aluminium clamp and spigot system is designed to be permanently fitted to new or existing substation busbar.
It accommodates up to five line end clamps suitable for 38mm diameter busbar, reducing the need to use the heavier range of clamps.
The aluminium spigot has a 60o adjustment angle, allowing the spigot to remain horizontal when attached to angled busbar, allowing clamps to be installed with ease.
The aluminium earthing spigot is designed to be installed easily, either during the initial erection of a substation busbar system or subsequently, as an enhancement to an existing system.
Designed to be lightweight, it is possible for the spigot to be installed by one person.
The machined clamps are supplied in two halves which are bolted together around the busbar using the supplied fasteners and are tightened to prescribed torque settings.
A 38mm diameter spigot and corona shield, common to all spigot clamps and busbar sizes, is bolted onto the clamp. This is then positioned horizontally, before tightening to the prescribed torque setting.
The earthing spigots fully comply to the requirements of the UK Electricity Supply Industry.
Product benefits include:
• Quick and easy to install
• Suitable for new builds or retro upgrades
• No accessories required
• Reduces manual handling risk
• Reduces need for heavy line end clamps
• Reduces outage time
Our spigots for 140mm busbar and larger are all approved to National Grid Standard EGI code BC4MO021.
