Surge Insulators
by Jim White
Reprinted from "INSULATORS - Crown Jewels of the Wire", July 1973, page 6
Enclosed are two pictures of a SURGE insulator (top picture, front; bottom
picture, back) recently acquired from the Muncie dump. This is the first one
I've seen of this type. Pictured to the right is the regular SURGE. As you can
see, there is quite a difference. Notice the SURGE name slants. On the back is
embossed BABSON BROS. CO. Notice letters are not perfectly aligned.
