Switches
In addition to the wildlife discs, the wildlife protection
option includes insulated covers for the switch base. The
option also comes with a fiberglass interphase operating
rod, to further eliminate the possibility of phase-to-
grounded part contact by wildlife.
Retrofit Installed Switches
Wildlife protection is retrofittable to all installed Omni-
Rupter Switches in the upright mounting configuration.
The unique “snap-fit” design of the discs allows the pro-
tection system to be installed with the switch
on
the pole
. . . only a brief outage must be taken. No
tools are required. And no disassembly of switch
parts is needed. An easy to install insulating cover is
used for already-installed switches that wraps securely
around the interphase operating pipe.
