ABSTRACT:
A braid clamp for generator shaft voltage and current pickup employs a compound lever for forcibly locking clamping faces of a compound action clamping block into firm contact with a portion of a metallic braid. The metallic braid is thereby secured with a portion thereof in trailing contact with a surface of the generator shaft. Provision is made for holding a substantial free end of the metallic braid ready for use but secure from accidental contact with adjacent objects. The free end may be employed for contact with the shaft by reversing the braid or may serve as a supply of braid which may be fed between the clamping faces. The compound lever is quickly openable and closeable to reduce any risk to workers servicing the metallic braid in close proximity to the rapidly rotating generator shaft.
