The Reduction In Metal Material Usage Due To The Use Of Epoxy Resin Insulators

Many electrical equipment manufacturers have successfully reduced their reliance on metal materials by introducing high voltage standoff insulators to replace traditional metal components. Compared to traditional metal or ceramic insulators, high voltage epoxy offers a lighter structural weight and stable electrical insulation properties.

In the design of substation supports and busbar support structures, the use of epoxy resin insulator can reduce the overall weight by approximately 50%. This also means a significant reduction in the demand for metal in support frames, connectors, and other components. Lighter components reduce reliance on high-strength steel, enabling companies to achieve cost savings in raw material procurement and inventory management, while also reducing manpower and equipment requirements in logistics and installation.
