CD 230, 239 glass insulators and a U 399B porcelain insulator in service use

CD 230, 239 glass insulators and a U 399B porcelain insulator in service use
252 Walmer Ave., Bluffton, Indiana

This pole on the top crossarm shows two CD 230 Hemingray 512 glass insulators with the left one a D-512. The porcelain insulator on the far right is a U 399B loop insulator. The two lower glass insulators are more than likely CD 239 Kimble-830s but could also be Hemingray-830s.

This pole just to the east of this pole.

Perfect example of what the U-399B was designed for.

Seems the glass was for the neutral and series circuit?

Thanks! There were a few more poles that had the U 399Bs on them but they were taken down along with the conductor within the last few years.

Some great linework there! Always fun to see the old series street-lighting still up.
