Those cooling bars?? around the nema tag made that fixture so cool looking.

Yeah I agree! They do look cool!

They have these in Colorado Springs. And Loveland has lots of these but in FCO, and also Shreveport Louisiana has lots of these.

There are 1 or 2 of these near me.

I didn't know there was a Model 13 PowerPad. When were those made?

They were made in the 80s before the 313 power pad came out.

I like the single door version better, but this is better looking than some other fixtures.

We have a bunch if these still up in Holyoke.

Jace, this is also mounted on a 6' joslyn arm. What utility is this under?

He said PEPCO.

Tony...read carefully..it was on one of the poles of PEPCO on a dead end road....then after that was BGE...it was on a dead end no outlet road that had both BGE and PEPCO....what's ironic is the PEPCO lines up the residental dead end road, then the rest was BGE, and did not have ANY streetlights in that part but had houses just like PEPCO side? How unusual!

Ahh, my bad. that's what I get for breezing through. Seems like PEPCO is big with steel arms and BGE uses aluminum looking through your pics.

We have a street that travels right along the Southampton/Holyoke line here in mass. The Southampton side is WMECO and the Holyoke side is HG&E. at dome point down the road the WMECO lines end and HG&E takes over the remaining Southampton side of the road untill the road enters Westfield.

I believe PEPCO's newer arms are Alunimum though, not too sure...their older arms are VERY VERY RUSTY....the newer ones don't...and the newest ones seem shinier...I believe made by Utility Metals A-frame 15 foot the largest...

Let's put it this way....PEPCO is HUGE on GUYLINE arms and A-framers.....BGE is HUGE on TRUSS ARMS!

Here it's National Grid with truss arms and WMECO with A-frames. I have never to this date seen an aluminum arm on a WMECO pole but our sister company in Connecticut, Connecticut light & power(CL&P) have been known to use aluminum a few times. Connecticuts other utility, United Illuminating which serves the New Haven area, was all steel but now uses only aluminum.

Here, National Grid is using 6' aluminum upsweeps for all new installations. It looks tacky to see a small 6' upsweep mixed in with 10' trusses.

What's the utility in Boston?

Boston's Utility is NSTAR. NU and NSTAR are currently in a merger and when complete, NSTAR will become NU. My company will become the larger Utility in Massachusetts.

I found that San Diego Gas & Electric has some of the Series 13 Powerpads in their system, all FCO. I think all HPS fixtures in their system installed in the 80s were power doors except the ITT 25s.

I've noticed a lot of older PEPCO low wattage HPS are power doors....such as this......most are GE power doors the GE M-250A1.....but I have seen Unidoors in PEPCO, but ultra rare....there was a row of them in the 90s on one of the roads but by 200u only one remained....now all are gone.....I only know of one Unidoor on a Montgomery County aluminum pole that is services by MC Public Works...they too had a lot of low wattage HPS power doors....but it seems they both, PEPCO and MC Public Works stopped using any power doors at all........BGE used to use power doors for low wattage HPS and all high wattage power doors....but seems to have stopped low wattage HPS power doors and the MV Power doors .....although I see a few GE M-400A2s with power doors in BGE which may be refurbished fixtures...
