Abstract :
A series of tests on suspension insulators For power transmission lines is described this paper, and results are given which should be of interest to design engineers. The tests made included long-time Fatigue tests, the distribution of voltage over the insulator string, and the flashover voltage when some of the units are electrically defective.
