Optimised Insulator Design Part 1 – Enhancing Pollution Performance
Background
When it comes to transmission line insulation, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. However, by considering optimised insulator design, engineers can tailor their grid insulators to match environmental conditions, delivering greater performance and efficiency.
In Part 1 of our 2-part video series on Optimised Insulator Design, ITG Expert Contributor Christoph Purucker considers the performance, maintenance and cost advantages of customising insulators to maximise their performance in challenging environments.
Looking at real-world examples, Christoph explores how utilities are tailoring designs to specific pollution types, such as salt fog or desert dust, to boost reliability, reduce maintenance, and lower long-term costs.
