Suspension Insulator Components

Components Diagram
  • Dielectric: Toughened glass with specialized environmental properties.
  • Cap: Hot-dip galvanized nodular or ductile malleable cast iron.
  • Pin: Hot-dip galvanized forged steel.
  • Assembly: High-strength aluminous cement for thermomechanical stability.
  • Locking Device: Stainless steel or phosphor bronze split pin (W-pin or R-pin).

Glass Insulator Shell Cross-Section

Under long-term electrical stress, contaminants can trigger local arcs, leading to insulator surface carbonization (electrocorrosion). Adequate creepage distance disperses the electric field strength, reducing local discharge risk and extending product life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What does the "70" in U70BL represent?
The number 70 indicates the rated mechanical failing load of 70kN, which is approximately equivalent to 7 tons of force.
2. Which international standards do these insulators comply with?
Our insulators are manufactured in accordance with IEC60383-1, GB/T1001.1, and connection structures follow BS 3288 part III and IEC60120.
3. What is the difference between W-pin and R-pin locking devices?
These refer to the shape of the stainless steel or phosphor bronze locking pins. Unless otherwise specified, the U70BL typically utilizes a W-pin for secure coupling.
4. Why is creepage distance important for glass insulators?
Adequate creepage distance is critical for dispersing electric field strength. This helps prevent local arcs and surface carbonization (electrocorrosion) caused by long-term environmental contaminants.
5. Can these insulators be used in highly polluted environments?
Yes. For heavy pollution areas, we recommend using pins protected with an anti-corrosion zinc sleeve (sacrificial anode) to ensure long-term stability and performance.
6. What materials are used in the main components?
The dielectric is made of toughened glass, the cap is hot-dip galvanized cast iron, and the pin is hot-dip galvanized forged steel, all bonded with high-grade aluminous cement.
