Optimised Insulator Design Part 2 – Reducing Cost of Ownership

Background

In Part 1, we saw how optimised insulator design can be of benefit in areas with high contamination levels. In this video, ITG Expert Contributor Christoph Purucker explores the common issue of grid insulator overdimensioning, and how optimised insulator design can help to avoid this.

Using a real-world study, Christoph investigates how technical engineers can optimise the design of their insulators to achieve improved voltage performance while also reducing insulator weight and size, lowering the total cost of ownership.
