Multi-part Structural Design Of Insulators
suspension insulator consists of multiple structural units, each with a clearly defined function. This multi-part structural design includes not only suspension composite insulator itself but also connecting components and support assemblies.
composite suspension insulator main body is typically made of ceramic, glass, or composite materials. Its shape may be disc-shaped, columnar, conical, or rod-shaped, depending on the voltage level and installation environment. Grooves or flanges on the outer shell increase the surface distance, thereby improving withstand voltage performance. External connection hardware includes metal caps, bolts, clamps, or metal flanges, used to connect conductors or fix it to the tower column.
If designed as a multi-section structure, the insulating sections are connected in series by bolts or metal connectors. Sealing rings or inserts may be used between sections to maintain the overall structural stability and electrical insulation performance. The segmented structure facilitates installation and maintenance, as well as replacement of damaged sections.
