high impact resistant plastic with a nominal depth of 1 1/2 inches (38 mm) and
consisting of horizontal members spaced at not more than 1/2-inch (13 mm) and

greater than 5 degrees of rotation and that is not affected by wind gusts when
locked.
Furnish two-piece hinged brackets of cast aluminum with stainless steel hinge
pins, and when closed will be secured by a tamperproof bolt. Ensure that the
mounting incorporates a terminal block for quick disconnect of field wiring.
