Abstract: Various embodiments of a raptor protection unit for installation on a power pole crossbar are shown and described, each having a clamp system secure enough to hold a perch on the crossbar. Each embodiment includes two side-lock clamps, which each have a stationary C-shaped brace, for bracing against the top, a side, and the bottom of the crossbar, and an L-shaped side-lock, for exerting pressure on the opposing side of the crossbar. The two side-lock clamps may face the same direction or opposite directions. For embodiments with same-direction side-lock clamps, an optional bottom-lock clamp may be placed between the side-lock clamps, for exerting pressure on the bottom of the crossbar. The raptor protection unit includes a perch and/or a roost guard.
