Pole Shrouds CLY 558 2851

Pole Shrouds are installed before setting new poles to guard against accidental line contact. They also guard against pole contact by personnel working in insulating aerial buckets or on platforms. Pole Shrouds are made from orange, Type I ABS, cold weather, high impact thermoplastic. Clydesdale Pole Shrouds feature the unique Air Gap design. Uniformly spaced dimples minimise the amount of surface area contacting the pole. This provides added insulation to keep electrical leakage to a minimum. When two pole guards are used to cover longer lengths, the Air Gap dimples nest together "locking" the two together with ample overlap. The Air Gap design also allows for air flow between it and the pole minimising moisture, condensation and creosote contamination.

All Clydesdale Pole Shrouds now come with bonded edge clips making installation and removal easier than ever. The edge clip wraps around and is bonded to the edge of the shroud putting the opening force just where it is needed most. This means the shroud will open to its fullest with less effort than its drilled predecessor and the new clips hold stronger making them less likely to be damaged by forces encountered in storing. The opening should face away from possible line contacts, whenever possible. Pole shrouds should be stored indoors to avoid prolonged exposure to UV rays and can be cleaned with a warm detergent solution.

All Clydesdale Pole Shrouds are rated to Voltage Class 4 (36kV).
