Abstract
A device connectable to an electric power line conductor including an electrically conductive insulated wire wound at least twice. A first end of the wire is configured to be connected to a first power line conductor and a second end of the wire is configured to be connected to a second power line conductor. A housing is mountable to the wire and includes an iron core power supply transformer configured to surround the wire to power a power supply module.
Claims26
A device connectable to an electric power line conductor comprising:
- an electrically conductive insulated wire wound at least twice around a loop tube having a first end and a second end, wherein the wire is configured to be connected in series with a power line conductor;
- and
- a housing including a pair of jaws mountable to the loop tube including an iron core power supply transformer configured to surround the wire to power a power supply module.
A device connectable to an electric power line conductor comprising:
- a loop tube providing a form;
- at least two turns of electrically conductive and insulated wire surrounding the loop tube configured to be connected in series with an electric power line conductor;
- a housing mountable to the wire including an iron core power supply transformer configured to surround the wire to power a power supply module;
- and
- a shorting bar for electrically bypassing the wire.
A device connectable to an electric power line conductor comprising:
- a loop tube providing a form including a slot for accepting a first locking device, the first locking device including a projection on one end that has a width approximately equal to a slot width and a depth approximately equal to a wall thickness of the loop tube;
- at least two turns of electrically conductive and insulated wire surrounding the loop tube configured to be connected in series with a electric power line conductor;
- and
- a “U” shaped first band for holding the projection into the slot and preventing the loop tube from rotating with respect to the wire located within the loop tube.
