Design and Simulation of the Lighting-protective Insulator for 110 kV Transmission Line
The insulator of a high-voltage transmission line supports the wire and prevents the current from flowing back to the ground. However
flashover may occur on it when transmission line is subject to lightning or operation overvoltage
and it may even be burned or crushed. To ensure safe work of the insulator
the insulator is usually paralleled with an arrester
whereas this parallel layout will increase the load of line and tower due to the large volume and weight of the arrester
and will make transmission facility complicated. In addition
additional equipment on tower arm will result in inconveniency in installation of the arrester. In this paper
an lighting-protective insulator is designed
its electric field is optimized
and simulation is performed to verify its mechanical properties. The results show that this integrated device can meet the requirements for both insulator and arrester. It is concluded that the lighting-protective insulator for 110 k V transmission line is feasible.
