CD 302 Hemingray Insulators in service use
Williams County, Ohio
CD 302 Hemingray power insulators still in service use in Ohio after more then 100 years of service duty. It is extremely rare to see large colored glass pintype power insulators still in service use today.
CD 302 insulators are a moderate size power insulator that were produced by the Hemingray Glass Company in Muncie, Indiana. They were produced from c1893 to 1920 for use on early power distribution with a voltage rating of 40,000 volts. CD 302 insulators are known as the "Muncie" style insulator, although some have the Ohio embossing on the reverse side instead of Muncie Type.
This shot shows a close up of both the front and reverse embossing on the insulators.
