Description / Abstract:
This guide is applicable to wildlife protective products
installed on overhead electrical distribution systems rated up to
and including 38 kV. The guide provides test recommendations
regarding these products that are in direct contact or in the
proximity of energized parts and conductors.
Purpose
The purpose of this guide is to recommend test procedures to
evaluate the electrical, mechanical, and durability performance of
wildlife protective products.
The guide provides the end user with test recommendations to
ensure that these products will not compromise the dielectric
performance of the supporting structure, will not cause premature
failure due to normal environmental conditions, and will minimize
the possibility of a momentary or permanent outage to the
electrical system in the event of wildlife interaction.
