ABSTRACT:
A damping spacer for two parallel overhead conductors in which two rigid spacing members are provided with integral hub structures disposed on opposed sides of a disc-like inertial weight structure. The structures have circular, integral raised wall portions and recesses. The thickness of the wall portions is less than the width of the recesses, and the wall portions are opposed and radially offset, such than when the recesses and raised wall portions of the hub and disc structures are placed together in mating relationship, and with the arms of the hub structures located in a position to be clamped to two overhead conductors, the recesses in the hub and disc structures permit the wall portions of the structures to move in the recesses, the wall portions of the respective structures serving to limit relative movement of the spacing members. The weight or mass of the disc structure is off-centered in the direction of one of the overhead conductors. Elastomer bushings are located between the disc and hub structures.
