Short answer: distribution pole mounting hardware should match pole type, equipment weight, line voltage, mounting hole pattern, bracket load, bolt size and corrosion environment.
| Transformer bracket | Used for pole-mounted transformers. Confirm transformer weight, pole diameter and bolt or banding method. |
|---|---|
| Arrester bracket | Used for surge arrester mounting. Confirm spacing, grounding lead and line connection. |
| Fuse cutout bracket | Confirm voltage class, mounting angle, cutout size and terminal access. |
| Cable and conduit support | Used to route service cable, grounding conductor or riser conduit along the pole. |
Pole mounting hardware can fail when load, pole diameter and hole spacing are not confirmed before production.
