Overview

This plug features a 6-foot (183cm) 1/0 AWG stranded tinned copper ground lead, providing a low-impedance path for fault currents in high-voltage systems. The unit includes a stainless steel mounting bracket and 5/16"-18 stainless steel eyebolt with brass cap nut for hot stick installation and secure parking stand attachment. The 272GP incorporates a fully operational fault close mechanism, enabling safe grounding during switching or maintenance operations. It is inserted into a standard parking stand using an insulated hot stick, allowing mating loadbreak elbows to be removed and placed on the plug for circuit grounding. This design is ideal for applications where space constraints prevent the use of separate feed-through and grounding elbows, such as crowded transformer secondary configurations. The plug meets 10kA symmetrical momentary and fault close ratings for 10 cycles, ensuring reliable performance under fault conditions. With dimensions conforming to ANSI Bushing Datum (3.25" bushing, 8.63" overall length), the 272GP integrates seamlessly into existing 25kV class systems.
