The role of electrical insulators in the stability of energy distribution and transmission lines
Types of insulators and their use
- Needle porcelain insulator: for low to medium pressure lines, a very resistant sample against impact and weather conditions.
- Plate insulator: used in high pressure lines and transmission towers, high current tolerance and excellent mechanical insulation.
- Tension insulator: suitable for end points of lines and special mechanical purposes.
- Polymer insulator: with weight Lighter, easy installation and special resistance to pollution and moisture.
