Study on Operating Performance of Silicone Rubber for Composite Insulator
The article studied the performance of silicone rubber,analyzed the various datas of composite insulator sheds submitted by State Grid Corporation in recent years,including electrical,mechanical and other special properties.The insulators were compared in operating voltage,operating environment,and running years,and analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spec-troscopy and thermogravimetric analysis.The effects on the aging of composite insulator sheds were described.The results show that the operating environment most affects the service life of the shed,while the voltage has no significant impact,and the in-creasing running years leads to the gradual accumulation of various aging factors.
