Zipping tool for installing flashover protection covers on energized electrical conductors and equipment

摘要

A hand-held device that can be used to quickly install flashover protection covers around energized electrical conductors and equipment. Each device includes a guide assembly that defines a pair of spaced-apart, converging passageways made of two sets of rollers that are configured to slidably receive the elongated edge portions of a flexible panel. The converging passageways force together the opposite edge portions of a flexible panel being advanced through the guide assembly.
