EZ Wedge® Power Actuated Wedge Connector
Revolutionary, power-actuated wedge connector
The EZ Wedge® Connector is a game-changing wedge connector that makes tap installations on bare overhead conductors faster, safer, and easier than ever.
Unlike traditional wedge, bolt, or compression connectors, EZ Wedge® is fully self-contained, eliminating the need for cartridge selection and special tools. It delivers a strong, uniform spring-compressive force, ensuring a secure and reliable electrical connection every time. Designed for utility-grade performance, the EZ Wedge® supports AAC, ACSR, and AAAC conductors, with copper compatibility in the lower tap position.
Its glove and hot stick-friendly design makes it ideal for live-line work, while its pre-installed anti-oxidation grease enhances long-term reliability. Whether for routine maintenance, new construction, or emergency storm restoration, EZ Wedge® is the fastest and most efficient tap connection solution available.
