What is a Pupi arm?

What is a Pupi arm?

PUPI crossarms are attached to wood, steel, fiberglass or other poles consistent with the attachment methods for wood crossarms. Our process ensures a strong adhesive bond between the foam and the beam walls so that moisture or other contaminants cannot penetrate the arm or travel along the foam/fiberglass interface.

What is a Crossarm?

Definition of crossarm : an arm fastened at right angles to an upright (as the horizontal member of a cross or a traverse on a telephone pole)

How much does a cross arm weigh?

Assembly weights do not include X-Braces. Traditional 32′ TH-10, fully braced, wood double crossarm construction weighs around 1,000 LBS.

What are the function of crossarms and pole pins?

The purpose of the electrical cross arms in different light poles is to provide assistance for the power lines of street lights. The electrical cross arms are used for providing support to the conductors that are used in the distribution and the transmission lines.

What is the purpose of cross arm in overhead lines?

One of the most important design elements responsible for the mechanical stability of the overhead line is a cross arm for power lines. They are used to fix securely the wires of the overhead line to the pole. “Metal Invest Company” LLC offers the cross arms for two types of poles – high-voltage and low-voltage.

What are cross arm braces made of?

The majority of crossarms are made of wood (Douglas Fir or Southern Yellow Pine). Small quantities of steel or composites also are used.

What are jumpers in transmission lines?

A jumper is a conductor that is rated to carry full line (load plus capacitive charging) current and is installed to connect line spans on opposite sides of a deadend or a large angle structure. The jumper is installed on each phase of the line and operates at full line voltage.

Why are transmission lines transposed?

Purpose of Transposition: Transmission lines are transposed to prevent interference with neighbouring telephone lines. The transposition arrangement of high voltage lines helps to reduce the system power loss.

Why stay insulators are used in stay wires?

Stay Insulators. Stay insulators give protection in the event of accidentally broken live wire that can accidentally energizing a stay wire and remaining in contact with line which doesn’t trip.

What are cross arms treated with?

4.4 Treatment Crossarms shall be pressure treated with copper naphthenate preservative according to AWPA U1.

What is the function of jumper?

In electronics and particularly computing, a jumper is a short length of conductor used to close, open or bypass part of an electronic circuit. They are typically used to set up or configure printed circuit boards, such as the motherboards of computers. The process of setting a jumper is often called strapping.

What is jumper in overhead line?

The short length of the conductor employed to connect the line conductor on one side of the terminal pole to the line conductor on the other side of the terminal pole is known as the jumper. Jumpers are fixed to the line conductors with a suitable clamp.
