For the middle phase the nut and the eye of the split pin are to be installed facing left when looking towards higher support numbers. The pivot bolt nuts in fittings between the conductors and the yoke plate are to be installed facing each other in twin bundle conductor arrangements and similarly for the two upper conductors in triple bundle conductor arrangements. In longitudinal direction shall the nuts be installed facing against lower support number. 9.2.3 V-string insulator sets Power arc protection devices on V-string suspension insulator sets shall be installed in such a way that any power arc will have a predestined direction upwards. For inclined insulator sets the pivot bolts nuts, the eyes of split pins in sockets and power arc protection device attachment arms, are to be installed facing downwards. Nuts in horizontally orientated pivot bolts and the eyes of split pins in sockets are to be installed facing the support. For the middle phase the nut and eyes of the split pins are to be installed facing left when looking towards higher support numbers. 19/28

The pivot bolt nuts in fittings between the conductors and the yoke plate are to be installed facing each other in twin bundle conductor arrangements and similarly for the two upper conductors in triple bundle conductor arrangements. In longitudinal direction shall the nuts be installed facing against lower support number. 9.3 Installation of tension and transposition insulator sets 9.3.1 Tension insulator sets Power arc protection devices on tension insulator sets shall be installed in such a way that any power arc will have a predestined direction upwards. Nuts on vertical orientated pivot bolts, the eyes of split pins in sockets and power arc protection device attachment arms, are to be installed facing downwards. Nuts on horizontally orientated pivot bolts and the eyes of split pins in sockets are to be installed facing the support. For the middle phase the nuts and eyes of the split pins are to be installed facing left when looking towards higher support numbers. See Figure 7a. The pivot bolt nuts on fittings between the conductors and the yoke plate are to be installed facing each other in twin bundle conductor arrangements and similarly for the upper conductors in triple bundle conductor arrangements. See Figures 7b and 7c respectively. For bolts in vertical direction shall the bolt head be on the upper side and the nut underneath. 9.3.2 Transposition insulator sets Transposition tension sets are not allowed in spans that cross traffic routes, railways and transmission lines nor in the adjacent spans. Power arc protection devices on transposition insulator sets shall be installed in such a way that any power arc will have a predestined direction upwards. Nuts on vertically orientated pivot bolts, the eyes of pins in sockets and power arc protection device attachment arms, are to be installed facing downwards. Nuts on horizontally orientated pivot bolts and the eyes of split pins in sockets are to be installed facing the support. For the middle phase the nuts and the eyes of split pins are to be installed facing left when looking towards higher support numbers. See Figure 7a. 20/28
