Abstract
A flight diverter assembly is provided that includes a first section, a second section, a biasing member, and a toggle action lever mechanism. The first and second sections are movable with respect to one another about a hinge axis between an open position and a closed position. The biasing member normally biasing the first and second sections to the closed position. The toggle action lever mechanism is connected to the first and second sections and has an over-center position that corresponds with the open position. The toggle action lever mechanism releasably holds the first and second sections in the open position when in the over-center position, but interacts, during installation on a conductor, with the conductor to move the toggle action lever mechanism from the over-center position to move the first and second sections to the closed position.
