Fulmer Company of Export, Pa., improved the design of its single pocket, cartridge style, plug-in holder, a product that offers a revolution in brush changing for turbine-generator reliability.
OEM approved, Fulmer’s product is a direct replacement for the original brush holders used on GE, Westinghouse and other manufacturers’ generators. And no expensive, time-consuming rigging modification is required to install the holder, just remove the old holder, clean the rigging and install the Fulmer FC101 style holder. In fact, brushes can be removed on-line, without any service interruption.

Lightweight and ergonomically built, the holder also offers two styles of removable insulated handles. The “shorter” handle with flash guard protects fingers from brush shunts, while the optional, extended handle can be used for holders that are difficult
