Discover TE Connectivity’s wildlife and asset protection solutions that safeguard animals and infrastructure, reducing outages and creating a safer, more sustainable energy network.
Insulator & Bushing Covers
Durable protective covers designed to safeguard insulators and bushings from electrical faults and wildlife interference, supporting grid reliability and wildfire mitigation across overhead and substation applications.
Animal contact with energized insulators and bushings commonly causes faults, outages, and accelerated equipment degradation. These covers help reduce animal-induced flashovers, improve system reliability, and lower maintenance interventions over the asset life. By limiting wildlife contact and potential ignition points, they also support wildfire mitigation efforts.
Insulator and Bushing Covers
| Medium Voltage | High Voltage |
Protect exposed connections across substations and distribution lines from wildlife contact and environmental contamination. Medium-voltage equipment in substations and distribution networks is often vulnerable to animal interference, pollution, and debris. These covers help prevent phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground contact, reduce unplanned outages, and improve reliability across critical distribution assets. |
Provide durable protection for high-voltage equipment across transmission lines and related infrastructure. Transmission systems operate under demanding electrical and environmental conditions where contamination and wildlife contact can compromise insulation performance. These covers help reduce flashover risk, protect high-value assets, and support dependable power transfer across the transmission network. |
See how TE’s advanced designs prevent wildlife contact, extend equipment life, and ensure reliable energy delivery while protecting nature and critical assets.
