Composite Suspension Insulators for an Overhead-Line Project

Application: Overhead Transmission and Distribution Lines

Customer: A utility project contractor (name withheld)

Products: Composite Suspension Insulators

Project Background

A utility project contractor required composite suspension insulators for an overhead-line installation. Product selection needed to consider the operating voltage, mechanical load and local environmental conditions.

Customer Requirements

The insulators had to match the required connection configuration, mechanical rating and creepage distance. The customer also needed technical information for project review and procurement documentation.

Avantar Solution

Avantar supported insulator selection according to the customer’s line parameters and installation requirements.

The proposed composite suspension insulators incorporated a fiberglass-reinforced core, silicone-rubber sheds and galvanized metal end fittings suitable for overhead-line applications.

Project Support

Reviewing the voltage level, mechanical requirements and end-fitting configuration helped the customer identify a suitable insulator arrangement before ordering. Relevant inspection and technical documents could be prepared according to the project requirements.
