HYDRAULIC CABLE SPIKING TOOL

Summary :

A Hydraulic Cable Spiking Tool is a critical safety instrument used in high-voltage electrical environments. It ensures worker safety by positively identifying dead cables before cutting, using a controlled and remote-operated spiking mechanism. It is widely used by utility companies, electrical contractors, and maintenance teams to prevent accidents and ensure safe cable handling.

Description :

SAPSONS HYDRAULIC CABLE SPIKING TOOL is a specialized safety device used in electrical maintenance and decommissioning work to ensure that a cable is completely de-energized before cutting or handling it.

A Hydraulic cable spiking tool uses hydraulic pressure to drive a hardened metal spike through an electrical cable. If the cable is live, the spike will safely create a controlled short circuit to ground, immediately tripping protective systems (like circuit breakers). This confirms the cable’s status and prevents accidental electrocution.

Key Components:

  • Hydraulic pump (manual or powered)
  • Insulated hydraulic hose
  • Spiking head with a hardened steel spike
  • Protective housing for operator safety
  • Remote operation mechanism (to keep distance from the cable)

How It Works :-

  1. The tool is positioned around the cable.
  2. The operator activates the hydraulic system (often from a safe distance).
  3. The spike is driven through the cable.
  4. If the cable is live, a fault occurs and protection systems trip.
  5. If no reaction occurs, the cable is confirmed de-energized.
