Hot stick tool for Lodestar

The hot stick tool is designed for installation of Lodestar CL series fault passage indicators without de‑energizing the line.

It screws onto a standard dielectric rod and enables live‑line mounting and dismounting of fault indicators onto and from conductors on overhead lines within a voltage range of 6 kV to 36 kV.

Benefits:

• Live‑line installation – simple mounting without de‑energizing the line, eliminating customer outages during installation.
• Improved supply continuity – reduces downtime and minimizes revenue losses for the utility.
• Enhanced personnel safety – allows installation and removal without direct contact with energized conductors.
