INTRODUCTION
The main line accessories are the devices used to connect conductors together (end-to-end or for branches) and the devices used to attach conductors to insulators (suspended or anchored). For bundled lines, spacers are used to maintain the distance between sub-conductors. Last but not least, we'd like to mention the accessories attached to the conductors.
