[TowerTalk] Wire warning?

[NICK WALLACE]

Hi Barry,
In my job as a lineman for the local power company we use a bright red
fairly rigid pvc plastic which is folded over the conductor and then screwed
in place along the wire to form a triangle ..ie with apex facing away from
the wire.
Of course our wires would normaly be of a larger gauge than you would use
for an inverted v.
Hope i have explained myself clearly enough,
Good luck,
Nick...ZL1IU
