Gala Silicone Overhead Line Covers are made from high quality non-tracking silicone rubber that are designed for field installation over bare conductors. These covers provide a layer of electrical insulation for Phase-to-Phase and Phase-to-Ground protection from bird and animals. The GSOC provides electrical insulation, UV resistance and tracking resistance. Silicon Self-fusing Tape can be applied on it for better insulation. An installation tool is available, making installation effortless and simple.
