Applications of Composite Insulators in Switzerland

.
(1993)

Abstract

Electrical utilities all over the world are making increasing use of composite insulators as an alternative to insulators made of porcelain or glass. Compared with conventional insulators they offer several considerable advantages: lower weight, better electrical properties due to hydrophobicity, less sensitivity to breakage and vandalism due to their high elasticity and improvedenviromental compatibility of overhead trans-mission lines due to their slenderness.
