Answer: Bird electrocution primarily occurs on medium-voltage distribution lines when a bird, typically with a large wingspan, makes contact with two energized parts or one energized part and a grounded component simultaneously. This completes an electrical circuit through the bird's body. The risk is highest on poles with narrow clearances between conductors.

Our insulating bird guards and wildlife protective covers are designed to prevent this by physically separating the bird from energized or grounded components. By covering exposed parts like jumpers, cutouts, and bushings with robust, UV-resistant insulation, we eliminate the points of contact and ensure that large birds, especially raptors, can perch safely on poles without the risk of electrocution. This not only protects the wildlife but also significantly reduces the risk of power outages caused by animal interference, enhancing overall grid reliability.
