Insulator Protection Mechanism To Reduce Tripping Caused By Lightning Strikes
Publish Time: Author: Site Editor Visit: 1
Under lightning strikes, the potential on conductors or towers can rise rapidly. If the insulation level of the line does not meet requirements, flashover or tripping can easily occur. Selecting an appropriate overhead power line insulators can improve the overall line's ability to withstand surge voltage, thereby reducing tripping events caused by lightning strikes.
Properly configuring the tension insulator length and clearance is also crucial. In special locations or high-tower lines, appropriately increasing the number of dead end insulators lines or improving the dead end suspension insulators structure can reduce the risk of tripping caused by lightning strikes, flashovers, and other lightning-related damage mechanisms.
