What are the advantages of glass insulators?

What are the advantages of glass insulators? Now people choose hebei wangmin Glass Insulator. Manufacturers here to introduce the advantages of glass insulator.

In the first few years of production and operation, glass insulators are found to have the following advantages over porcelain insulators:

Because of the high mechanical strength of the surface of glass insulator, the surface is not easy to crack. The electrical strength of glass generally remains the same throughout the operation, and the aging process of glass is much slower than that of Porcelain Stay Insulators. Therefore, glass insulators are mainly scrapped due to self-damage in the first year of operation, but the defects of porcelain insulators are only discovered after several years of operation.

By using glass insulators, it is possible to cancel the regular live preventive test of insulators during operation. This is because each type of damage to tempered glass will cause damage to the insulator, which is easily detected by the operator when patrolling the line. When the insulator is damaged, glass fragments near the steel cap and iron foot get stuck, and the mechanical strength of the rest of the insulator is strong enough to prevent the insulator string from breaking off.

The raw material used to make glass insulators is more stable than the raw material used to make electric porcelain, creating favorable conditions for stabilizing the electrical and mechanical properties of glass.

Due to the transparency of glass, it is easy to find small cracks and various internal defects and damages in the appearance inspection.

The mechanical and electrical properties of tempered glass are much higher than those of porcelain, and the size and weight of the same type of insulator are much smaller than those of porcelain and Silicon Rubber Insulator.

The main types of glass insulators are: LXP-70,LXP-100,LXP-160,LXHP-70,LXHP-100,LXHP-160,LXY-70,LXY-100,LXY-160,LXHY-70,LXHY-100,LXHY-160,FC-70,FC-100,FC-160,FC70P/146,FC100P/146,LXY1-70, etc.
