What are elec. insulators?

Electrical insulators protect and shield conductors from electric current. They can be made of glass, porcelain, rubber, Teflon®, and silicon dioxide sleeves. Composite insulators are made of a combination of materials and are suitable for various electrical engineering purposes. Electrical insulators, also sometimes called “dielectrics,” are materials that can withstand and absorb the flow of […]

Types of electrical insulators?

Electrical insulators, such as ceramics, glass, non-ceramics, rubber, and silicon dioxide, prevent risks associated with electricity. Ceramic insulators are durable and can maintain their shape, while glass insulators are more resistant to electrical and thermal forces. Non-ceramic insulators are cheaper and lighter but may crack over time. Rubber insulators are smaller and more resistant to […]
