PLP RAPTOR PROTECTOR Platform
Ospreys often use utility poles for nesting. Osprey nests built on utility poles may pose a threat to the birds and can jeopardize system reliability through outages and damage to equipment.
The PLP Raptor Protector Platform offers maintenance-free, lightweight aluminum alternative to wood construction. The aluminum platform is a unitized solution that can be easily moved in the event the nest is abandoned. It is ideal for quickly and easily relocating avian nests from utility structures. This allows utility work to continue, helping to reduce or eliminate outages and safeguard avian life. The RAPTOR PROTECTOR Platform is available with nest retention posts and/or a perch.

Polymer Insulators Tie Top - Pin Type
The PLP Polymer Insulators are ideal for use in:
Overhead distribution line construction - bare or covered conductors
Spacer Cable
Tree wire
Available for 1" or 1-3/8" pin construction
These insulators are manufactured from a proprietary high-density polyethylene-based compound having a dielectric constant that is similar to (and compatible with) polyethylene covered overhead conductor. The insulators are designed to meet the appropriate dimensional, electrical and mechanical requirements of the applicable ANSI C29.5 and C29.6 insulator standards. A neutral spool insulator is available and meets the ANSI C29.3 Class 53-2 standard and can be used in any application calling for this insulator standard.
Features:
Tie top designs are perfect for use with all PLP ties
Matched dielectric properties with Jacketed Conductor
Superior moisture and contamination shedding
UV stabilized material
High impact resistance
Lightweight design
Head dimensions - ANSI 29.5 & 29.6 compliant
Dramatically reduces abrasion
Ideal for jumpers and stinger wires
100% Recyclable
