Product Overview

A 36kV post composite insulator is an important insulating and supporting component used in medium and high voltage power systems. It is widely applied in distribution lines, overhead networks, substations, switchgear, busbar supports and electrical equipment connections. Wishpower 36kV post composite insulator is manufactured with a high-strength fiberglass core, silicone rubber housing and durable metal end fittings, providing excellent insulation performance, mechanical stability and long-term outdoor reliability.

Wishpower 36kV post composite insulator is designed to replace traditional porcelain post insulators in many power transmission and distribution applications. Compared with porcelain insulators, composite insulators offer lower weight, better impact resistance, stronger anti-pollution performance and easier installation. They are especially suitable for humid areas, polluted environments, coastal regions, industrial zones and outdoor electrical systems requiring reliable insulation support.

Main advantages of Wishpower composite insulators include:

  • Excellent hydrophobicity: Silicone rubber housing helps reduce surface leakage current and pollution flashover risk.

  • Lightweight design: Easier to transport, handle and install compared with porcelain insulators.

  • Stable mechanical strength: The fiberglass reinforced epoxy core provides reliable bending and supporting performance.

  • Good weather resistance: Suitable for long-term outdoor operation under UV, rain, temperature changes and aging conditions.

  • Improved operational safety: Composite structure reduces the risk of brittle fracture and porcelain breakage.

  • Customizable design: Voltage rating, creepage distance, end fittings, installation dimensions and housing color can be customized according to project requirements.

Core Features

  1. Designed for 36kV Power Systems
    Suitable for 36kV distribution networks, overhead lines, substations, switchgear, busbar supports and electrical equipment insulation.

  2. High-Performance Silicone Rubber Housing
    The silicone rubber sheds provide excellent hydrophobicity, pollution resistance and aging resistance.

  3. High-Strength FRP Core
    The fiberglass reinforced epoxy rod ensures strong mechanical support and long-term structural stability.

  4. Strong Pollution Flashover Resistance
    Optimized shed profile and creepage distance help improve reliability in polluted and humid environments.

  5. Flexible Installation Options
    Different end fittings, flanges, bolt holes and mounting structures are available for various equipment interfaces.

  6. Low Maintenance Cost
    The composite housing is less prone to heavy contamination, helping reduce inspection and maintenance workload.

Product Structure

A 36kV post composite insulator normally consists of the following parts:

  • Silicone Rubber Housing
    Provides external insulation, weather resistance, hydrophobicity and anti-pollution performance.

  • Fiberglass Reinforced Epoxy Core
    Works as the main mechanical load-bearing component and provides structural strength.

  • Metal End Fittings
    Usually made of hot-dip galvanized steel, aluminum alloy or stainless steel for connection and installation.

  • Sealing System
    Protects the interface between the core and end fittings from moisture ingress and improves long-term reliability.

  • Shed Profile
    Increases creepage distance and enhances insulation performance in outdoor and polluted environments.
