M mdpeck Member Aug 3, 2004 #4 Re: Insulated Bushing So, the difference between an insulated bushing and a standard bushing is a non-conductive material in contact with the current carrying conductors?

They are not common now as plastic is much less money. I use 1/2 mallable bushings-box-lock nut to save space. With a mallable bushing you don't need two locknuts.
