PORCELAIN INSULATORS
Application Guide:
Suspension insulators (disc porcelain) are the most widely used models for transmission
and distribution lines. In strings they can be used for any voltage depending on the number
of units mounted in series.
Their design varies to suit different types of polluted zones and mechanical strength as per customer’s requirements. It is possible to
connect strings in parallel in sets of two or more to provide adequate mechanical strength for large spans or heavy conductors.Life
expectancy of these insulators are extremely high but may be adversely affected if operated beyond specified limits of electrical or
mechanical stress.

Notes
Electrical Insulators 7

PORCELAIN INSULATORS
Mechanical or electrical failures can least be afforded at these points. Since electrical troubled are followed by mechanical troubled,
longer strings are recommended in strain points than at regular suspension points.
Flashover values, both power frequency dry or impulse for insulator strings in the strain position are less than those for the same string
length in the vertical position, as the sagging of horizontal strings reduces the arcing distance. Further reduction of approximately 8 to
10% in power frequency dry and impulse flashover values of strings in horizontal position is expected due to distortion of electrostatic
field at the line end of strain strings where change in direction is involved . As drip water does not accumulate on horizontal string unlike
on vertical string , the wet flashover value of a horizontal string is only slightly lower than its power frequency dry flashover value.
(f) corrosion
For polluted areas use of pins protected by a sacrificial zinc sleeve fused around the pin at air cement interface is recommended. the zinc
sleeve does not take part in the mechanical structure of the insulator and its gradual elimination does not affect the mechanical
characteristics of the whole complex.

Short circuit currents of high magnitude may cause melting of the insulator pins. lt is therefore, necessary to have the protection fittings
in an insulator string carefully designed. lt may noted that short circuit currents of 20000 and 30000 amps. of one second duration cause
melting of steel bars of 16 mm and 20 mm diameter respectively.

45 SPI SILICONE LONG ROD INSULATORS
General features:
The new ECMEI long rod insulators type 45SPI marked with “ Elsewedy Polymer Insulators” combine the highest levels of electrical
insulation and mechanical tensile strength with a compact, light- weight design. The superior design and low weight of 45SPI long rod
insulators makes it especially suited for over- head compact-line applications where low tower design and short line spans are required.
They are also more economical to transport and install .Polymer insulator of are one piece products up to 6 m with no joints on the housing
(sheath) or at the weathershed interfaces. Housing is directly vulcanized to the core during compression molding process ,providing
superior bonding performance. Also, pressure controlled uniform crimping provides superior long-term mechanical performance.
Design:
The 45SPI insulator housing is HTV1 silicone rubber housing made by intelligent joint technique IJT2 by injection molding process. The
HTV silicone is directly molded onto the core rod by overlapping the triple junction point and part of the metal end fittings. The design
ensures a total enclosure of the most critical parts of a silicone insulator – the triple point (metal end fitting/FRP rod/silicone housing),
where usually the highest electrical field strength is concentrated. This overlapping system eliminates any need of traditional sealing
systems while preventing any moisture ingress attacks. On the basis of contamination level , We can propose best-fit shed profile . Shed
profile complies with IEC standard.
Core:
The core rod is a boron-free, corrosion- resistant ECR glass-fiber-reinforced plastic rod (FRP rod). Due to the extremely high hydrolysis
and acid resistance of the FRP rod the risk of so-called brittle fracture is completely eliminated for 45 SPI insulators.
End Fittings:
We use only the end fittings, made of high grade hot-dip galvanized forged steel not ductile cast iron to ensure the durability for very long
time in different climatic condition, they are directly attached to the FRP core rod by a circumferential crimping process. Each crimping
process is strongly monitored with a special control system. A complete range of end fittings according to the latest IEC and ANSI standards
is available up to 340 kN of SML. The 45SPI is 100% exchangeable and compatible with existing insulators and line hardware of all types.
The special design of the end fitting in the junction minimizes the electrical field strength and partial discharge inside the junction zone as
well as on the silicone housing surface, by utilizing an integrated grading ring. This reliably prevents corrosion of the insulating material
and eliminates the risk of subsequent failure of the insulator.

45 SPI – HTV silicone rubber housing for best pollution performances
The excellent pollution layer characteristics of the HTV silicone rubber ensure maximum reliability of the 45SPI insulator, even under
extreme service conditions like heavy sand storms or high IR levels in sunny areas. The high hydrophobic housing prevents the formation
of conductive film on its surface. Even the most severe polluted conditions, such as salt fog in coastal regions or dust-laden air in industrial
areas, cannot impair the intrinsic hydrophobicity of the HTV silicone rubber. Surface currents and discharges are ruled out. Neither water nor
dirt on the housing surface can cause insulator flashovers.
Quality
According to long-established Elsewedy tradition and experience in high-voltage equipment for more than a 50 years, each production
step for the 45SPI – beginning with numerous incoming raw material inspections through the assembly of the individual components to
routine tests of the finished product – is rigorously monitored and well controlled
It totally encloses this junction point with the HTV silicone rubber of the housing itself. Also the highest bonding strength of the HTV silicone
housing to the FRP core rod via special interface matreial combined with the overmolding design system prevent moisture ingress at the
connection zone of the insulator.
• In this way, 45SPI insulators can be applied on 170 kV systems without the need for additional grading/corona rings.

segment of the Power Industry SF manufacturing program offers wide range of solutions for its customers based in different parts of world.
Quality Control:
Whole process under strict & stringent quality control at every stage from raw materials to finished products. The factory is also equipped
with a tool development facility, R & D Unit with a State of the advanced Laboratory capable of conducting various tests as per customer
requirements & various standards.
• Aluminum
Parts in contact with aluminum or aluminum alloy conductors should be made of aluminum to prevent fretting corrosion. Suspension
clamp, strain clamps, spacers, parallel groove clamps etc. are cast from aluminum or aluminum alloys. Aluminum being a good conductor
material, aluminum clamps affords high short circuit resistance and largely eliminates inherent losses, as they are non-magnetic.
• Steel
The following parts are mainly made of steel:
Drop Forged Steel : All insulator string accessories subject to pull (sag) load such as Ball eye, Double Eye Clamps etc.
Sheet Steel : Yoke Plates.
Flat Bar Stock : Suspension are Yoke Shackles Extension Links.
Round Bar or Tubular Stock : Arcing and Guard fittings.
Screw Steel : Rivet head bolts, Threaded bolts etc.
• Galvanizing Steel
Hot Zinc galvanizing is considered to be the most effective protective coating for steel and malleable cast iron under normal conditions.
That is why we exclusively use hot galvanizing wherever possible. A farther advantage of this protective method that zinc remains
relatively inert against other metals such as aluminum or copper, so that it can brought into direct with them without reservation.
To ensure that dimension of bolts, holes eyes, clevises etc. will be accurate after galvanizing, blanks are made accordingly, ie. screw
threads are cut undersize, hexagons of socket head fasteners are pressed oversize.
Galvanizing and the corresponding test are carried out according to Bs 729 specification and renowned international Standards.

RTV COATINGS
ECMEI is one of the few insulator manufacturers who is able to offer RTV coating directly to our customers without involving an external
company for this service.
Vulcanization or vulcanization is a chemical process for converting rubber or related polymers into more durable
materials via the addition of sulfur or other equivalent “curatives” or “accelerators”.
These additives modify the polymer by forming crosslinks (bridges) between individual polymer chains. Vulcanized materials are less
sticky and have superior mechanical properties. A vast array of products are made with vulcanized rubber including tires, shoe soles,
hoses, conveyer belts and hockey pucks. The process is named after Vulcan, Roman god of fire. Hard vulcanized rubber is sometimes sold
under the brand names ebonite or vulcanite, and is used to make hard articles such as bowling balls and saxophone mouth pieces.
Hydrophobicity Transfer
In the case of pollution particle deposition on the coated layer, the low molecular weight (LMW) siloxanes will
spread from the silicone bulk material to the pollution layer and encapsulates these particles within a short time
period. Now the insulator surface is hydrophobic again.
