Porcelain Insulator Manufacturing Industry

Description:

Porcelain Insulator Manufacturing Industry. Production of Ceramic Electrical Insulator

Electric Insulator Market worth $13.34 billion by 2023

An insulator is a material that does not conduct electrical current. Insulating materials include paper, plastic, rubber, glass and air. Vacuum is also an insulator, but is not actually a material. Most electrical conductors are covered by insulation. Magnet wire is coated with an extremely thin layer of insulation so that more turns or larger wire may be used in the winding of transformers etc. Insulators are generally rated at hundreds of volts, but some that are used in power distribution are rated as high as hundreds of thousands of volts. Insulators support and/or keep electrical conductors from making unintended contact with each other.

Insulator made by hard paste of Porcelain is also known as true porcelain insulator. Out of all the wide varieties of ceramics & true porcelain is the hardest, the most durable – which is one of the reasons porcelain insulator are largely replaced glass insulators.

Advantages of Porcelain Insulators:

•Environmental friendly. At its disposal, the porcelain insulator is not dangerous waste

•In comparison to the polymer, electrical strength of porcelain is higher: 25+ kV/mm v. 20 kV/mm at the polymer

•The porcelain insulator has demonstrably higher resistance to degradation of the surface, does not degrade or carbonate during charges; the conductive path is created very slowly in comparison of the surface of a composite-material insulator

•The ceramic material is resistant to rodents, termites, birds and other animals capable of compromising the integrity of polymers

•The porcelain insulator has a wide scope of application: Contactors, disconnections, equipment transformers, condensers, and grommets also with extreme surface, atypical insulators (filters)

•The porcelain insulator is suitable for extreme hot/cold changes in the environment. It is suitable for environments with dust, salt and high moisture, or for combination of all of the above

•The ceramic material offers very high mechanical strength under pressure and hardness

•The design is modified to suit the environment
