Protective barriers and related methods

Corner assemblies for protective barriers for protecting assets (e.g., electrical power transformers and other substation components). The corner assembly includes two guide structures oriented perpendicular to each other. The corner assembly includes at least two protective member assemblies disposed within the two guide structures. Each protective member assembly includes two side members within protective members extending horizontally between the two side members.

Full-Set Transformer Protection Barrier Manufacturing and Technology

This Technology Commercialization Fund (TCF) project provided the design, fabrication, and testing a full-scale prototype “Corner Unit” protective barrier to provide seamless 360° perimetrical protection for highly expensive power generation or transmission infrastructure. The Corner Unit will seamlessly match up to the existing A-Frame design to form the 360° protection desired from industry. This TCF project also demonstrated how commercial industry could fabricate and deliver the full-scale barriers to remote locations.
