Introduction
The Chance® Load Break Tool was designed with feedback from the Linemen who use the product.
The Load Break tool is designed to be 24% lighter, reducing muscle strain and increasing
maneuverability of the unit. Additionally, the tool-reset trigger has been redesigned to allow for a
simple reset, even if you are wearing thick gloves.
The Chance® Load Break Tool is designed to aid in operation of disconnects, load break switches,
capacitor banks, fuse limiters, power fuses, and cutouts. Each tool is manufactured in accordance
with a quality system certified to ISO 9001: 2008.
The Chance® Load Break Tool will help cut installation and operation costs as there will be no
need for load interrupters on each device. The procedures for switching are designed to reduce
complications and to minimize the duration and scope of outages. The Chance® Load Break Tool
complies with OSHA 29 CFR Part 1910.269 (published JAN 1994) and states “Devices used to
open circuits under load Conditions shall be designed to interrupt the current involved."
