High voltage insulators are essential components in electrical systems, designed to prevent current flow between conductors or between conductors and ground at high voltages. Typically made from ceramic, glass, or composite materials, these insulators are meticulously designed to withstand electrical stress and mechanical strain. Various types such as pin, suspension, post, and bushing insulators cater to specific applications and voltage levels. Creepage distance, crucial for preventing flashovers, is carefully considered in their design. In transmission lines, insulator strings are often used to distribute voltage stress. Regular maintenance, including cleaning and inspection, is vital to ensure their continued reliability amidst environmental factors.
