CERAMIC INSULATOR (HT/LT)

                Ceramic materials are widely used in applications where high temperatures  are encountered. Frequently ceramic  materials  are used   to   provide  thermal  insulation  in   high   temperature application.  Ceramic insulators have been utilized in a  variety of  electrical  devices.  Ceramic insulators are  often  used  as electrical  insulators  in chemically  and  electrically  hostile environments.  These ceramic insulators are often  prepared  from compositions containing lead, such as lead silicate. The lead  is utilized to lower the firing temperature of the ceramic  material and to promote bonding and sintering of other constituents in the ceramic  used to form the insulator. High voltage  insulators  of ceramic  materials are mainly used in outdoor switching  stations and  outdoor  lines. They comprise an elongated  insulation  body which  is  equipped with shields for the formation of  a  leakage path which is matched, to the atmospheric conditions. The ceramic insulators,   however,   are  heavy  and  bulky;   they   require specialized  assembly fixtures or processes and are  awkward  and difficult  to  handle and ship. The ceramic insulators  are  also
brittle  and  easily  chipped or broken.  As  an  alternative  to ceramics,   composite  materials  were  developed  for   use   in insulators for transmission systems
