(OP)
Does any want see a 550 kV vertical break disconnect switch vertically mounted (Insulator parallel to the ground)?

RE: 550 kV vertical break disconnect switch

I'd be interested in seeing a picture to see if the deflection of the insulators is obvious to the naked eye. I would NOT want to see one on my system!

Southern States does not recommend mounting any type of disconnect switch vertically at 345 kV or higher.

Can't wait.....

RE: 550 kV vertical break disconnect switch

I've seen pics from PG&E where the mount 245kv disconnects vertically. Never 345kv though off the top of my head, I'm sure it out there.
