Abstract: A device for spacing overhead, parallel subconductors of a conductor bundle and for damping vibrations of the subconductors. The device comprises rigid, elongated arms pivotally connected together at one end of each arm and having a clamp at the other end of each arm for attaching the arms to respective subconductors. A resilient, viscoelastic pad or disc is disposed between the arms in opposed recesses provided in the arms at the location at which the arms are pivotally connected together, the pad or disc providing the primary damping mechanism for the device.

Abstract: A device for spacing overhead, parallel subconductors of a conductor bundle and for damping vibrations of the subconductors. The device comprises rigid, elongated arms pivotally connected to each other by a rigid means at one end of each arm, with the other end of each arm being radially spaced from the rigid means and provided with a clamp for attaching the arm to a subconductor. Resilient damping devices, such as close coil springs, are secured in the arms at a location adjacent the rigid means pivotally connecting the arms to each other.
