STEP 13 - RUNWAY CONDUCTOR BAR INSTALLATION (SAFPOWRBAR®)
(for Safe-Lec Runway Conductor Bar Installation, go back to Step 12, page 18)
Mounting Insulating Cover on Bar
13.1
Under normal circumstances the insulating cover will be shipped mounted on the bar, but
in case removal or replacement is necessary, the following procedure is suggested.
13.2
Starting the cover 2-1/8” down from the end of the bar and flat on top of the bar, mold the
cover down over the bar and work the lips of the cover over the legs of the bar. The
conductor bar is furnished in lengths of 21’-0” and the cover is furnished in lengths of
20’-7-3/4” which allows 2-1/8” of the bar to extend beyond the cover at each end. The
cover fits tightly on the bar and does not require any additional clamps to hold it in place.
