Abstract

This invention provides a device enabling movement of an electrical conductor through, or from one side to the other of, a string of insulators coupled between a supporting tower and a yoke plate, and has an upper frame with clamping jaws engageable with one of the insulators, a lower frame connectable to the yoke plate, and manually operable mechanism interconnecting the two frames for selectively moving them relative to each other in the direction of the axis of the insulator string to permit uncoupling of a portion of the string, movement therethrough of the conductor, and recoupling of the string.
