Utility  — Traditional wood and metal utility poles and cross arms are increasingly being replaced by polymer composites because they are non-conductive, durable, and lighter weight than wood or steel, which makes them easier to install. Glass fiber-reinforced composites are also used in other electrical transmission and distribution applications such as insulators, arresters, and pole line hardware.

TOUGH ENOUGH TO PROTECT THE POWER GRID MODULAR BALLISTIC PROTECTION MADE POSSIBLE WITH COMPOSITES THE CHALLENGE Recent attacks on U.S. electrical substations across the country provide stark reminders that our nation’s power supply remains a primary target for criminals focused on harming our country and security.1 The call to action is evident: we must continually improve the physical and technological infrastructure protection of our nation’s energy supply. To meet the FERC requirements, each utility company is required to perform a risk assessment of their systems, identify the most critical assets within the power grid, and then propose and implement a plan to protect them.
