How to interpret the insulator model

2021-08-06

In recent years, with the rapid improvement of modern science and technology, the old and traditional glass industry has been renewed, and various glass products with unique functions have come out one after another. Glass insulators are devices used to support and insulate wires. They are one of the key components of high-voltage transmission lines and directly affect the safety of the entire transmission line. I want to know how to read the insulator model and how to interpret the insulator model. After reading the article, you will understand.

How to see the insulator model

1. This is based on different insulator manufacturers, and the naming method is different. The specifics still depend on four main parameters: creepage distance, structural height, disc diameter and rated breaking load.

2. Insulators are a special insulation control that can play an important role in overhead transmission lines. In the early years, insulators were mostly used for wires, and slowly developed a lot of disk-shaped insulators hung on one end of the high-voltage wire connection tower, which is to increase the creepage distance, usually made of glass or ceramic, called insulators.

3. Insulators should not fail due to various electromechanical stresses caused by changes in the environment and electrical load conditions, otherwise the insulators will not have a significant effect and will damage the use and operating life of the entire line.

How to interpret the insulator model

U stands for disc suspension insulator, B stands for ball and socket type, P stands for anti-fouling type, D stands for double umbrella, 120 stands for 12KN, 146 stands for height. In addition, U120BP/146D has a disc diameter of 280mm and a creepage distance of 450mm; The disc diameter of the rear model is 255mm, and the creepage distance is 400mm.

Insulators are a special insulation control that can play an important role in overhead transmission lines. In the early years, insulators were mostly used for telegraph poles. Slowly, a lot of disk-shaped insulators were hung on one end of the high-voltage wire connection tower. It was used to increase the creepage distance. It is usually made of glass or ceramics and is called an insulator. Insulators should not fail due to various electromechanical stresses caused by changes in the environment and electrical load conditions, otherwise the insulators will not have a significant effect and will damage the use and operating life of the entire line.
