New Products
Midsun Group is continuously designing new & improved solutions for animal mitigation problems.
Why Midsun?
Midsun’s wildlife outage covers are carefully engineered to prevent weather and animal related outages throughout substations, transmission and distribution lines.
We want to make sure that you receive the best solution for your animal mitigation problem.
Our products are not constricted by extreme temperature, harsh environments or odd connections & shapes. Regardless to where the animals are contacting, we have a cover that will fit and give you a combination of superior elements to provide a long-term solution.
Midsun can provide turnkey operations for our E/Products. If you are looking to train your staff, one of our OSHA certified applicators will give a full demonstration.
Installing our products can save your company money, time & aggravation.
High Insulation E/Fusing Tape
High Insulation E/Fusing Tape can be used on various odd shaped connectors, bus or cable to offer protection from animal contact induced outages.
Similar to our original Midsun E/Fusing Tape, Midsun HIGH INSULATION E/Fusing tape is self fusing and allows void-free electrical insulation.
High Insulation E/Fusing tape offers up to 35 kV phase-to-ground insulation with a 2/3 overlap and a 10% stretch. A second 2/3 overlap of tape will achieve 50 kV phase-to-ground insulation.
High insulation E/Fusing Tape is offered in various widths to make application on any size equipment easy.

Application Checklist
- Keep the tape clean of dust, dirt and moisture on hands. The tape will not adhere to itself if it is dirty.
- First wrap will offer 35kV phase-to-ground insulation when applied using a 10% stretch with a 2/3 overlap. 50kV insulation can be achieved by a subsequent wrap.
- Prevent any air pockets from developing by firmly pressing down on the tape.
- If fusing tape can possibly hold water – Allow a place for the water to egress out.
- Must overlap 100% when starting and terminating the application, so as to not have any ” flagging”.
