Composite insulators play a crucial role in electrical systems, offering durability and reliability in various applications. Understanding their lifespan is essential for ensuring optimal performance and safety in electrical infrastructure. Composite insulators are made from materials such as fiberglass reinforced with epoxy or silicone rubber. They are designed to provide insulation and mechanical support in high-voltage transmission and distribution lines. Composite insulators are widely used in overhead power lines, railway electrification systems, and substations. Common types include suspension insulators, pin insulators, and post insulators, typically rated from 10 kN to 300 kN for different voltage levels. The normal service life of a composite insulator …
