It is equipped with end fittings. A composite insulator is a manufactured device intended t

43、o give flexible or rigid mechanical support to electric conductors or equipment while electrically separating these conductors or equipment from ground or from other conductors or equipment. 3.1.1.2 Line and Apparatus Post Insulators A post insulator is an insulator with attached metal parts having

44、means for direct and rigid mounting to a supporting structure and for semi-rigidly supporting conductors. AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD ANSI/NEMA C29.11-2012 C29.11-2012 Page 2 Copyright 2012 by National Electrical Manufacturers Association 3.1.1.3 Suspension Insulator A suspension insulator is an insu

45、lator with attached metal parts having means for non-rigidly supporting electric conductors. 3.1.2 Insulator Parts 3.1.2.1 Core The core is the internal insulating part of a composite insulator. It is intended to carry the mechanical load. It consists mainly of glass fibers positioned in a resin mat

46、rix to develop mechanical strength. 3.1.2.2 Housing The housing is external to the core and protects it from the weather, it may be equipped with weathersheds. Some designs of composite insulators employ a sheath made of insulating material between the weathersheds and the core. This sheath is part

47、of the housing. 3.1.2.3 Weathersheds Weathersheds are insulating parts projecting from the housing or sheath that are intended to increase the leakage distance and to provide an interrupted path for water drainage. 3.1.2.4 End Fittings End fittings transmit the mechanical load to the core. 3.1.2.5 C

48、oupling Zone The coupling zone is the part of the end fitting that transmits the load to the line, to the structure, or to another insulator. It does not include the interface between the core and the end fitting. 3.1.2.6 Interfaces An interface is the surface between different materials. Examples o

49、f interfaces in composite insulators are as follows: a) Glass fiber/impregnating resin b) Filler/polymer c) Core/housing d) Weathershed/weathershed e) Weathershed/sheath f) Housing/end fittings g) Core/end fittings Note: Definitions as given in this section apply specifically to the subjects treated in this standard.
