TE Connectivity has been helping customers for 30-plus years mitigate animal caused outages in substations and on overhead lines. Animal caused outages can be reduced by over 90% when isolating / insulating covers and barriers are installed on equipment (transformers, breakers, arresters, switches, cutouts, regulators…), eliminating a phase to phase or phase to ground flashover.

Built to last

TE’s wildlife and asset protection material formulations are designed to:

• Perform reliability for 40+ years without impactful deterioration in performance.
• Minimize the risk of fire ignition associated with normal and abnormal utility environments with our standard materials.
• Extend the performance to add V0 for those customers who require it.
