The company I work for has a client on the West Coast with a phase-to-ground clearance violation. On a 115kV deadend structure, the inside phase of rigid auxiliary bus just slightly violates the 42" phase-to-ground clearance requirement to a switch vertical operating rod. This was just recently noticed and has been in service for a number of years now. I am proposing to wrap the vertical pipe with insulating tape in the proximity of the rigid bus as opposed to moving the bus over. Has anyone used insulating tape for a similar purpose at 115kV?
