ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for protecting wildlife from contact with an energized fuse assembly known as a “cutout”, also known as a “disconnect”. The cutout is shrouded from above and three sides. One side is left open to facilitate installation or removal of a fuse holder assembly. The shroud is formed to allow the use of a hot-stick for installation and removal of a fuse holder assembly into a fuse receptacle formed by upper and lower contact assemblies held in opposition to each other by an insulator. The shroud provides a slot enabling installation when a wire is connected to the upper contact assembly. A pin is used to hold the shrouding in place.
