Protecting Composite Insulators from Corona
One of the important design differences in composite insulators is smaller shank diameter, made possible by the high strength glass-fibre reinforced core rod. However, slimmer profile also means smaller metal end fittings and the issue of corona must be addressed, even at lower voltage levels. Read More >
Defining Seismic Performance Requirements for HV Substation Surge Arresters
Substation arresters play a vital role protecting electrical equipment from surge-induced overvoltages in both seismically active and non-seismic zones. However, they are not essential to the immediate restoration of power after an earthquake. Read More >
