Widely renowned as the safety tool of choice around the world for ensuring that high voltage cables are completely safe, Accles and Shelvoke's (ACVOKE) cable spikers are cartridge-powered tools that fire steel spikes directly through HV cables to short circuit power, thus proving that the cable is completely dead.

Acvoke cable spikers are made to the highest standards and are high quality, high durability safety tools suitable for use with all cable designs and for penetrating all forms or normally-applied cable coverings. The spiker can be used with single and multiple conductors laminated, polymeric, elastomeric, unshielded, shielded, concentric neutral, interlock armoured, steel wire armoured, leaded cover, and other applicable cable types.

This version of the cable spiker - the standard product - is suitable for use with all HV cables with a diameter of up to 110mm and cables running voltage of up to 275kV.

For added safety, the Acvoke cable spiker remotely fires cartridges into cables, allowing the user to stand at a safe distance. This remote firing system uses a seven-metre-long lanyard and release pin which are operated completely independently from the tool when fired. At this distance, the safety of the user is completely assured even if a live cable is accidentally spiked.

About the Optional Cable Spiker Jack

As an option, the Acvoke cable spiker can be fitted with a jack system which will make it easier to remove blades when spiking polymeric cables.

Without the jack, sometimes it can be difficult to remove the tool from these cables; the jack is a simple solution to this problem. With the jack, you'll be able to:

• Easily withdraw blades from polymeric cables
• Reduces operator fatigue when trying to remove blades
• Protect your Acvoke cable spiker from unnecessary damage during removal
