This may be considered conservative by some. **** **** When specifying the insulator strength properties in Components/Insulators in TOWER and PLS-POLE, the manufacturer`s recommended load capacities shall be used per NESC Table 277-1. This is normally the RTL and RCL values published by the non-ceramic insulator manufacturers. See IEEE Std 1572-2004 IEEE Guide for Application of Composite Line Post Insulators for further clarification. **** **** Per Rule 277, the Engineer of Record should decide what "proper allowance" is for Rules 250C and 250D and modify load cases accordingly **** **** User may prefer to add other specific load cases utilizing alternative Strength Factors **** **** Coordination of Load Factors, Strength Factors, and Component strength properties is the responsibility of the Engineer of Record **** **** See Tech Note at http://www.powline.com/products/nesc_insulators.html for additional discussion **** > Structure Loads criteria includes typical Full Structure DE cases > Structure Loads criteria includes longitudinal extreme wind check per Rule 261A1c(Page 214), Rule 261A2e(Page 215), and Rule 261A3d(Page215) POWER LINE SYSTEMS, INC.
