Aluminium Based Deadends have been designed as a simple and cost effective method of
carrying out terminations on overhead distribution networks incorporating AAC, AAAC and ACSR
Conductors. Their unique single piece design, provides uniform application pressure to the
conductor, and eliminates cumbersome hardware and other components, which may be lost or
damaged during installation or in service.
Heliformed ® Line Fittings
An entire range of fittings, have been developed, to cover the smallest earth wires, right up to the
largest transmission conductors. Each fitting has a specific application range, as indicated in the
following tables.
Rated Holding Strengths
On AAC and AAAC conductors, both an ADE and LDE fitting will hold a minimum of 90% of the
ultimate tensile strength of the conductor as required by Australian Standard AS1154.1 - 2004.
On ACSR conductors, an ADE or LDE fitting will hold 60-85% of the ultimate tensile strength of
the conductor, on which it is used.
