AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires

Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially af

13、fected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary;

14、their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will

31、esin matrix core, polymer material weathersheds, and metal end fittings intended for use on overhead lines for electric power systems, 69 kV and below. Mechanical and electrical performance levels specified herein are requirements for new insulators. 2 DEFINITIONS See Section 3 of American National

32、Standard for Composite Suspension Insulators for Overhead Transmission LinesTests, ANSI C29.11, and Section 2 of American National Standard Test Methods for Electrical Power Insulators, ANSI C29.1, for definition of terms. 3 GENERAL Insulators shall conform in all respects to the requirements of thi

33、s standard. The text, figures, and tables supplement each other and shall be considered part of this standard. Manufacturers drawings, if furnished, shall show the outline of the insulators, together with all pertinent dimensions, and mechanical, electrical, and leakage values. Any variations in the

34、se dimensions due to manufacturing tolerances shall be indicated. 4 MATERIALS 4.1 Core The core of the insulator shall consist of a fiberglass-reinforced resin matrix. The core shall be sound and free of defects that might adversely affect the mechanical or electrical properties of the insulators. 4

35、.2 Weathersheds The weathersheds shall be made of polymer materials such as ethylene propylene or silicone elastomers. They may contain inorganic fillers and organic compounding agents. 4.3 Metal Parts Metal parts, except for cotter keys, shall be made of a good commercial grade of malleable iron, d

36、uctile iron, steel, aluminum, bronze, or brass. All ferrous parts, other than stainless steel, shall be galvanized in accordance with specification for Zinc Coating (Hot-Dip) on Iron and Steel Hardware ASTM A153. Cotter keys shall be made from cold-drawn bronze, brass, or austenitic stainless steel

37、wire. 5 DIMENSIONS AND CHARACTERISTICS Dimensions and characteristics of the insulators shall be in accordance with manufacturers drawings and Figure 1 and Table 2. The shapes of the weathersheds and spacing between them are not a part of this standard. For instances where specific tolerances on dim

38、ensions are not indicated, tolerances shall be as specified in Clause 5 of ANSI C29.11. AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD ANSI/NEMA C29.13-2012 C29.13-2012 Page 2 Copyright 2013 by National Electrical Manufacturers Association 6 MARKING Each insulator unit shall bear symbols identifying the manufacturer an

39、d the year of manufacture. In addition each insulator unit shall be marked with the specified mechanical load rating (SML) with appropriate units. The markings shall be legible and durable. 7 PROTOTYPE TESTS Prototype tests are required to verify the suitability of the materials and method of manufa

40、cture for insulators defined by the following characteristics: (1a) same shed material (1b) same housing material (2a) same shed design (includes diameter, thickness, and shape) (2b) same housing design (includes thickness and covering of metal fittings) (3) same core material (4) same core diameter

41、 (5) same manufacturing process (6) same metal fitting material (7a) same metal fitting connection zone design (7b) same metal fitting coupling design (7c) same core-metal-housing interface (8) same metal fitting method of attachment to core To allow for manufacturing variations, (2) and (4) may var

42、y up to 15% before the design tests must be repeated, except as noted below. Retesting is not required for greater thickness of the shed or housing or increased core dimensions. Retesting is also not required for a longer connection zone. Retesting is required for an increase in strength ratings. Th

43、e materials and methods of manufacture for insulators shall be qualified by successful completion of the following tests. Design changes shall be tested as listed in the table above.

47、lators in accordance with ASTM D2240 with a Shore A durometer. Boil each sample insulator in water having 0.1% by weight of NaCl for 100 hours. At the end of boiling, allow each insulator to remain in the water until the water cools to 50C5K. Maintain this temperature of the water until the followin

48、g tests start. All tests shall be completed within 48 hours. The sample insulators shall be rinsed with de-ionized water prior to the test evaluation. 7.1.3 Test evaluation Visual Examination Inspect the housing of each sample insulator. There shall be no cracks and no signs of dissolving or crumbli

49、ng. Hardness Test Measure the hardness of two sheds of each insulator in accordance with ASTM D 2240 with a Shore A durometer at the same temperature 5K that the pre-boiling measurements were taken. The hardness must not change from the pre-boiled specimen by more than 20%. C29.13-2012 Page 4 Copyright 2013 by National Electrical Manufacturers Association Steep-Front Impulse Voltage Test Subject each sample insulator to a steep-front impulse of at least 1000 kV/micro-second in accordance with 7.2.7 of IEEE Std 4.
