Insulator. What are the insulators used in over head lines? What is switchgear? Why is busbar sectionalized? How many types of system loss in electrical systems and what are they? Insulator. What are the insulators used in over head lines? Answer: Insulators are: 1) Pin type insulator 2) Suspension type insulator. 3) Strain type insulator. 4) Shackle type insulator. 5) Post type insulator. 6) Stay or guy type insulators. 2. Why are insulators used in overhead lines? Write the important properties of insulators. Answer: No leakage current can go from the support to the earth because of the use of insulators. That is why insulators play an important role in transmission and distribution lines. 3. What qualities should the insulator have? Answer: An insulator should have the following qualities 1. Should be mechanically strong and robust. 2. High electrical resistance should be achieved. 3. Relative permittivity should be high. 4. The ratio of punc...
