Abstract :
This paper presents the results of experiments conducted on fiberglass distribution line pole. First, the critical flashover (CFO) voltage of the fiberglass distribution line pole and its combination with polymer and porcelain insulators is given. Then, the data obtained from the study performed on accelerated aging of fiberglass distribution line poles are presented, followed by a discussion of the results
