The LSA-PLUS system, with the LSA-PLUS contact as its smallest functional unit, provides for connection, disconnection, switching and earthing functions in telecommunications applications.
Special attention to maximum contact safety regardless of climatic and ambient conditions, results in a high degree of technical security through a gas-tight, low resistance joint.
A single tool, connects and cuts the wires, to the correct length, in one operation.
Contact behaviour on insertion of wire

being twisted away from the axis of the wire. During the process the clamping ribs partially distorb the insulation of the wire, and by doing so, create a high level of mechanical stability. | On completion of the insertion action the contacts apply
lateral and torsional forces to the inserted wire. These forces, coupled with the mechanical clamping, create a gas-tight and superior IDC contact |

LSA-PLUS Contact Types
|
| The Connection contact is a "through" contact with no facility for testing without removal of the terminated wires.
This type of contact only supports basic 3-point, over-voltage protection(Magazine). It does not support over-current protection. |
|
| The Disconnection contact is classified as being of the Normally Closed(NC) type, which facilities monitoring and/or testing without the need to remove terminated wired. This provides a "look both way" feature.
This type of contact supports all types of over-voltage and over-current protection. |
|
| The Switching contact is classified as being of the Normally Open(NO) type, which facilities monitoring and/or testing without the need to remove terminated wired. This provides a "look both way" feature.
This type of contact requires that an accessories, such as a bridging plug, of protection device, be inserted to complete the circuit. This type of contact supports all types of single-pair over-voltage and over-current protection. |
