gailgrove   [Jul 13, 2010 at 01:21 AM]
I also like the Hubbell's the RLG some how reminds me of a modern Power-Lite B2255 Very Happy
Form109   [Jul 13, 2010 at 01:28 AM]
Ironic How you like the RLG which Coppies the Model 25...but call the M400R3 which Coppies the AE 125 a Fraud...LOL Laughing Laughing
gailgrove   [Jul 13, 2010 at 01:29 AM]
I know isn't it Laughing
mercuryvaporrocks   [Jul 13, 2010 at 01:50 AM]
An M-400R3 is just an AE 125 Series with a thicker door and bail latch, it's not like GE. Laughing

There are more AE 125's in my Area than the 1997 Era M400's (R3 and A3)
gailgrove   [Jul 13, 2010 at 02:08 AM]
I only know of 4 of them in my area, we have some 125s but there are ALOT of Powerlites Very Happy

We have a few AE 125s in my area, but we have a lot of Powerlites and OV 25s here too. There's also a few FCO Hubbells scattered here.

I've seen the GEM400A3 and R3s used a lot on provincial highways here.

in Alabama iv'e even seen Bronze Colored M400R3's...now those are Pretty Cool.
GullWhiz   [Jul 13, 2010 at 08:31 AM]
Bronze GE M-250R2, GE M-400A1, GE M-400A2, GE M-400A3, AE 113, AE 115, OVX aare as common as gulls around here!!!

By the way hubbells aren't really copied versions...and they actually have two doors....one is actually a door that has a ballast...a powerdoor actually!
gailgrove   [Jul 13, 2010 at 01:13 PM]
Well here Powerlites are as common as gulls in fact more common! But we have also been OVXed Neutral
GullWhiz   [Jul 13, 2010 at 02:27 PM]
We were OVXed in 1990....thats when we started getting OVXed...it's only for the STATE of MD...not the electrical companies..just for Maryland highway departments called SHA.... But I also have been noticing them using OVH recently....
Form109   [Jul 13, 2010 at 05:37 PM]
The Shape of the Fixture is Similar....also...gailgrove....GE seems to be First with the Powerdoor Thing...and AE Power Pads are like the Powerdoor Version of AE's....so looks like Party 1 Coppies Party 2 and Vise Versa....both ways. Rolling Eyes

Duquesne Light was the first electric company here in PA to install Cooper Lighting OVX's in the early 90's.
Form109   [Jul 13, 2010 at 09:12 PM]
in Tyler and East Texas we haven't Gotten OVX's that Much..in Fact they are pretty Scarce...they are just as Rare Here as the Hubbel's are.
GullWhiz   [Jul 14, 2010 at 01:43 AM]
Well Form109...you forgot the Westinghouse Tudor...which is also a powerdoor...see "Tu-dor" = "Two Door" Also McGraw Edison Unidors are a form of powerdoors too....BUT in a different way...they used ONE door....simply remove refractor door, remove the whole reflector and door assembly (the reflector is permanently attached to the door..including the socket) and put new door and reflector assembly and put the original refractor door on.
Form109   [Jul 14, 2010 at 02:04 AM]
Why is the First Generation Silverliner OV-25 Two Doored?....i don't think that one is Powerdoor.....stilll....whats the Purpose of those Two Doors on that one...oh and the Early Generation OV-50.
GullWhiz   [Jul 14, 2010 at 02:24 AM]
It's not really a door, just a screwed in cover for slipfitter access...it's nothing but a thin metal strip screwed on...same goes for OV-14B...if you look at my OV-14B...except they aren't screwed but snapped on...
Form109   [Jul 15, 2010 at 12:07 AM]
How come the Cover is steel when the Rest of the Fixture is Aluminum.
