Transformers are easily the most common perch point for
any animal or bird. When utilities are making selections for guards,
transformers must be a priority. The contact risk points on a
bushing are typically from a phase to ground contact.
Reliaguard® Bushing Guards are designed to stay in place.
Retention of the guard once applied is a critical design feature
to be considered. Reliaguard guards are manufactured with
a superior closure design to ensure the bushing guards stay
where they are installed. The lock fastener included with each
guard provides an optional method of ensuring guards can’t be
inadvertently dislodged.
