FIGURES <br />Figures 45 Revision Date: 7/21/20 <br /> Revision No.: MR-235 <br /> <br />Figure 4.18-6: Typical Deadend Structure Pole Configuration. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Many deadend poles require insulated jumpers to allow safe perching. Where this is not practical <br />and 60 inches of separation is lacking, perch management is an option. However, perch <br />management is most successful when other parts of the structure are still safely accessible to <br />birds. Shown above are various different types of raptor protection device alternatives and their <br />approximate locations. <br /> <br />Perch guard devices can be placed on the crossarms to eliminate the possibility of raptors <br />utilizing the structure or only allowing raptors to utilize safe portions of the structure. <br /> <br />Insulated Jumpers or covers can be used to protect raptors from electrocution by the phase <br />stingers. <br /> <br />Bushing covers and arrester caps also eliminate the possibility of electrocution on exposed pole- <br />mounted equipment. <br />
