Abstract: A closure for use on a hollow, upright, open top and open bottom pedestal for receiving underground wiring having a circumferential collar portion surrounding the open top that receives a nut member, the closure being hollow with a closed top and an open bottom and a circumferential collar portion surrounding the open bottom, the open bottom being dimensioned to telescopically receive the pedestal open top and having a radially oriented opening in the cover collar portion that is in alignment with the nut member when the cover is in closed position on the pedestal, including a radially extending tubular barrel welded to the cover collar portion in alignment with the opening therein and extending radially and exteriorly of said cover collar portion and a bolt received within the tubular barrel and threadably engageable with the nut.

Abstract: A pad for supporting a transformer upon the earth's surface having an improved safety feature, the pad being formed of rigid material configured to rest upon the earth's surface and support a transformer and transformer housing on the upper surface thereof, the pad having a cable opening communicating between the top and bottom surfaces, and a hollow sleeve of rigid material, the sleeve being received in the pad cable opening and arranged such that the upper end of the sleeve extends above the pad top surface, the sleeve preventing objects inserted between the housing and the pad from engaging cables passing through the cable opening.

Abstract: A transformer unit comprising a transformer, a ground level base pad having a vertical cable opening therethrough, and an open top, open bottom vertical cable vault situated in the earth, the upper end thereof being received in the pad opening to provide easy access to and training room for underground electrical cables connected to the transformer.
