CREEP
What is creep?
Creep is the permanent elongation of the
cable due to everyday tensions that the cable
experiences over a period of time.
All overhead line will encounter p
periods of
hi h lloads
high
d which
hi h will
ill increase
i
the
h temperature
of the conductor.
At this temperature, copper & aluminum
conductor will move (creep). The Cu more than
Al.
Hence, when making connections the contact
area must be large to minimize the applied
pres sure.

The Y35 HYPRESS Tool incorporates a Cshaped,rotatable head for overhead line
work and compres sion grounding
applications.
The hook style head with extensive ram
travel provides for easy tapping and
splicing of overhead lines.
The Y35 HYPRESS head, body and handles
are covered with 3/16"rubber for tool
impact protection.
