excessive cantilever load on the bushings. Excessive
loading may cause bushing or gasket damage.

! WARNING
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BE-
LOW COULD RESULT IN MINOR OR MODERATE
PERSONAL INJURY, AND COULD ALSO RESULT
IN DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
Do not place excessive cantilever load on a low-
voltage or high-voltage bushing.
High-Voltage Bushings
Internally-clamped cover-mounted porcelain
bushings are typically supplied for connection to the
high-voltage source. Insulated terminal caps may be
provided as an option to prevent wildlife from making
contact with live high-voltage terminals.
Low-Voltage Bushings
Internally-clamped, sidewall-mounted bushings are
typically supplied for connection to the secondary
load. These may be constructed of either molded
plastic or porcelain.
Other Accessory Devices
Transformers may be provided with other accessory
devices not discussed in these instructions. In such
cases, contact the Howard Industries Transformer
Division or the device manufacturer for information.
