Application of the Silicone Rubber Insulator in Power Grid Renovation

A silicone rubber insulator is made of high-quality silicone rubber materials, and is also called trident protection pipe.  It is commonly used in the construction of power cable engineering. Today we will learn about its application in power grid transformation.

silicone rubber insulator is made of high-quality silicone rubber, and it looks like cannula with openings. The product has many advantages, such as excellent electrical property, resistance to the marks caused by the leakage of electricity, excellent weather resistance, high mechanical performance, and hydrophobicity and hydrophobicity migration.

I. Unique advantages of silicone rubber insulator

1. The product performance is extremely excellent in high and low temperature resistance. And it can withstand temperature as high as 150 ℃ and as low as -50 ℃. So, it can be used for a long time in harsh environments.

2. It is soft and resistant to bending, and can closely fit the aluminum stranded wire and high-strength silver-plated copper wire both of which are used in the power transmission link, without worrying about the fracture caused by mechanical wear of the silicone rubber insulator.

3. The product can provide long service life. And it has features of anti-aging and corrosion resistance. It is not easy for natural weather such as sunlight, rain, ice and snow in the wild environment to damage the product structure, which brings a longer service life.

4. Silicone rubber insulator is easy to install and can save labor and time. The installation of snap-on silicone hoses does not require fire operations, it only needs to be glued with professional glue, and the time of power interruption due to construction is shorter.

II. The role of silicone rubber insulator in power grid transformation

1. Increase the safety distance and reduce the difficulty of evading overhead cables in complex environments for engineering projects, so that the wind turbines can still operate safely at locations close to the overhead cables.

2. The crossover of transmission lines can effectively prevent accidents and disconnection during crossover.

3. Phase sequence identification of power transmission lines. The use of snap-in silicone tubes of different colors can distinguish the neutral, fire and ground wires, which is convenient and simple.

4. Silicone rubber insulator prevents electric shock accidents with excellent insulation protection capabilities to prevent electric shock and leakage accidents , so as to avoid personal injury.

5. Silicone rubber insulator prevents external aggression, mainly referring to the damage of the natural environment to the transmission line. It has the advantages of waterproof, anti-corrosion, anti-ultraviolet aging, and excellent weather resistance.
