            Abstract : 
Insulators on high voltage lines may cause radio interference by the arcing of the insulator charging current. A copper oxide glaze for new insulators has been developed to prevent this arcing; treatment of old insulators with special compounds to exclude air is reported as helpful. Suspension insulators are found to require no treatment.
