Title :
Practical operation of suspension insulators
Abstract :
The paper describes some of the mechanical and electrical problems which have been experienced on high-voltage transmission lines equipped with suspension insulators and points out some of the principles involved and some practical methods for guarding against the troubles. Figures are given showing the deflections which will take place for various sizes of aluminum and copper conductors at the insulators, under the pressure of maximum probable wind velocity.
