4.0 CONSTRUCTION:

4.1. All ferrous parts shall be hot dip galvanized as per IS-2633. The Fuse
Sets are meant for mounting on a structure at a height of 4.5 meters to
5.0 meters from ground level suitable for Single Pole Distribution
Transformers structure.

4.2. The porcelain parts shall be permanently secured at the centre in a

metal support to be mounted on the supporting structure. They shall
be made up of inter changeable units and shall be capable of being
mounted on the supporting structures. Suitable Bolts, Washers
required shall also be supplied with the insulators. The portion of the
central metallic support where it grips the insulator should be insulated
to that level of the insulators to avoid bird faults.

The porcelain shall be sound and homogenous, free from defects and
other flaws of imperfections which might effect the mechanical or
dielectric strengths. They should be thoroughly vitrified and shall be
tough, impervious to moisure and smoothly glazed.

All the ferrous metal parts excluding mounting angles shall be hot dip
galvanized. The mounting angles shall be painted with double coat of
red oxide paint. The porcelain and metal parts shall be assembled in
such a manner that any thermal expansion differential between the
metal and porcelain parts through out the range of temperature
variation shall not loosen the parts or create undue internal stresses
which may effect. The electrical or mechanical strength and rigidity.
The insulators shall conform in all respects to IS-5350 IS-731/1971.

4.3 all the bolts and nuts shall be hot dip galvanized.
