Product Description
The Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool permits a safe and quick method to bypass an overhead
cutout without the tedious use of bulky jumper cables. The tool is indispensable for fuse
coordination tasks and permits easy bypass of an underground dip. The Jack Jumper™ Cutout
Bypass Tool saves time and money, eliminates risk of service interruption and prevents accidental
cross phasing.
The primary purpose of the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool is to provide temporary fuse
replacement when performing fuse coordination on cutouts. The Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass
Tool is rated at 100 Amps continuous on AC current without exceeding a 40°C temperature rise. It
is used to bypass cutouts on both overhead lines and underground taps. For 200 Ampere SMD-20
systems attach two Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tools on opposite sides of the SMD-20 Power
Fuse (this only works for SMD-20 Power Fuse Tools and cannot be utilized for standard cutouts).
Installation and removal of the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool is done with a shotgun stick.

WARNING

The fuse is a protective device. The Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass
Tool DOES NOT FUNCTION AS A FUSE. If you must leave
the area, replace any fuses and remove the Jack Jumper™ Cutout
Bypass Tool. It is not a fuse replacement or permanent by-
pass mechanism.
