A single energized phase conductor typically sits on a pole -top insulator. <br />Distribution three-phase tangent structures, without pole -top grounds or pole -top mounted <br />equipment, generally provide adequate separation for all but the largest raptors since 44 inches of <br />phase separation is provided. There is also a 20 -degree angle between the outer and center phase <br />wires. This separation is appropriate in areas where large raptors are less likely to occur. In areas <br />where eagles use these poles as preferred perches, additional protection to minimize the <br />electrocution risk would be required. A couple of different raptor protection device alternatives <br />and their locations are shown above in Figure 4. <br />Figures 41 Revision Date: 08/24/16 <br />Revision No.: MR -160 <br />
