Abstract

See full text

Improvements in an insulated high voltage extension for a socket wrench is disclosed. The extension provides electrical isolation between an operator located at one end of the insulated extension and a nut or bolt located at the other end of the insulated extension. Due to the potential for high voltage electricity to jump between conductive elements the insulated high voltage extension provides electrical isolation to reduce or prevent electrocution of an installer when the installer is working with high voltage power transmission lines. The extension can have a universal joint option that allows an operator to be slightly out-of-alignment with the nut or bolt. The extension can have a sacrificial torque limiter to prevent an installer from continuing to tighten or loosen a nut or bolt beyond a limit that can cause damage to the extension.
