摘要 Disconnecting switch assemblies are located in a triangular configuration on an inverted cross-shaped frame adapted to be secured to the top of a power line pole. Each switch assembly includes a pivotally mounted insulator carrying a switch blade for engaging a stationary contact carried by a stationary insulator. The pivoted insulators at the ends of the transverse piece are interconnected by a shaft which is connected by a link to the pivoted insulator at the top of the upright piece to effect conjoint switch operation. The transverse and vertical pieces are tubular and the shaft and link are enclosed thereby. Dead end connections adjacent the switch assemblies permit dead ending the respective conductor thereto. Each switch blade and the respective switch contact are so positioned that the switch blade cannot gravitate to the open position when closed and vice versa. Each switch contact is carried by an insulator that is mounted at the distal end of a support bracket in angular relation to the respective pivoted insulator.
