Design for reliable performance

As a part of ABB, we know the requirements of high voltage applications and the essence of being a reliable business partner with the highest quality standards. We are currently providing hollow composite insulators in the voltage range from 72 kV 1100 kV AC / 800 kV DC and in lengths up to 11 m. All composite insulators are tested and certified according to IEC 61462. ABB hollow composite insulators are made of glass fiber-reinforced epoxy resin tubes with silicone rubber sheds and aluminum end fittings. The design is adapted for high voltage applications in outdoor service. Our design, material properties and manufacturing processes ensure a lifetime of 30 years or more. Each composite insulator design is tailor-made to the customers requirements. We currently offer a wide product range with more than 100 different composite insulators in production.

Technical support and after-sales service are always available to all our customers. By choosing ABB composite insulators, excellent performance and reliability can be assured for the lifetime of the equipment. In-house production of glass fiber tubes The insulator tubes are made of electrical-grade glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin using a wet filament winding technique. Continuous fibers are drawn through a bath of epoxy resin and then wound at a controlled pre-stress onto the mandrel. The fibers are oriented so that they will carry only tensile stress in the finished product, i.e. the design requirements determine how the fibers are wound. By alternating the structure of the layers, the tube can be tailor-made according to customer requirements.

The pattern in which the fibers are laid and the pre-stress on the fibers are computer controlled. The fibers can be laid at any angle from 10 to 90 to the longitudinal axis. An inner layer of polyester liner is normally used. This is a requirement for insulators used for gas-insulated circuit breaker applications to withstand decomposition products of the insulation gas SF6. Precise and defined winding of the fiber onto the mandrel ensures uniform laminates of the highest quality. The tubes are cured on continuously rotating mandrels at high temperatures. After curing, the tubes are removed from the mandrels and machined to the required dimensions. The whole process ensures high-grade insulator tubes with low manufacturing tolerances and superb mechanical and dielectrical properties. The composite insulators are designed according to the mechanical requirements of our customers to manage both bending forces and the inner pressure to which the insulator is subjected during its service lifetime. The composite insulator design is optimized by altering the following parameters: Fiber angles of the composite tube Wall thickness of the composite tube Overall dimensions (inner diameter, shape) Flange design

We use only high-quality HTV silicone rubber from the best available suppliers. HTV silicone rubber ensures the highest possible durability of the sheds, as well as outstanding tracking and erosion resistance. Using only hard-wearing HTV silicone rubber ensures superior performance in sandstorm areas and minimization of damages during transportation and handling. The material has also a stable behavior under extreme climate conditions (-50C to +105C as standard). Major development work has been done for our optimized shed profiles. We mainly offer shed profiles using alternating long and short sheds, which have the benefit of being selfcleaning. The bottom surface as well as the top surface of the sheds is tilted at an angle. This ensures optimal creepage distance and protected areas, resulting in the lowest possible leakage currents, even in severe environments. The tip of each shed is well-rounded to minimize the electrical field and the risk of flashover.

High-strength flange design The fiberglass tubes are fitted into high-strength aluminum alloy casted flanges using a special process which results in a combined shrink fit and adhesive bond. The result is an extremely strong, gas-tight and leak-proof joint. Silicone rubber sheds for best performance The fiberglass tubes are finally coated with specially formulated high-temperature vulcanized (HTV) silicone rubber weather sheds using a void-free helical extrusion process. ABB has developed a unique patented method of extruding the sheds with a helical pattern. This method ensures the best possible interface between the silicone and the tube. The silicone rubber sheds are chemically bonded to the tube, thus allowing no moisture or contamination to enter. The result is a seamless silicone coating with no molding lines. The flexibility of this method also ensures that any customer dimension (diameter, length or shape) can be met with even the highest creepage distance requirements. The cost of tooling is low compared to other methods, which makes our process highly suitable for optimizing the design to our customers needs in a cost-efficient way. Even the longest insulators can be manufactured in one step.

Advantage of technology

ABB composite insulators with silicone rubber insulation possess unique properties. Silicone rubber is the fastest-growing, most dominant polymeric insulation material for high voltage products.

Composite insulators were first introduced more than 30 years ago, and the use of hollow composite insulators on high voltage apparatuses is now well-accepted. Composite insulators have proven themselves in the field of service experience and can directly replace porcelain insulators used for high voltage applications. They offer significant benefits compared to porcelain insulators. Increased safety, light weight, superior pollution and insulation performance are some of the reasons for customers shifting to composite insulators. The advantages are well-known and accepted. The following benefits are taken under consideration when OEMs and utilities worldwide choose composite insulators for their high voltage applications. Explosion proof for maximum safety In the event of an internal fault/inner over pressure or external influence/vandalism, a porcelain insulator will show a violent failure (explosion) with dangerous fragments flying around at high speed.

The failure mode of a composite insulator is delamination/ puncture without the launch of destructive fragments. There is no damage to surrounding equipment and no danger for persons in the vicinity. This ensures maximum safety for both personnel and substation equipment. Shattering tests have been performed studying the effects of the impact of a bullet fired on a gas filled live tank circuit breaker (LTB). With composite insulators there is minimum damage to the breaker, only a small leakage but no explosion. There is no scattering of pieces and no damage to surrounding equipment. The same test on a live tank breaker with porcelain insulator results in a fatal explosion with destructive fragments.

Composite insulators offer outstanding safety in events such as: internal fault/ inner over pressure in the equipment external influence e.g. during transportation, installation and maintenance environmental influence e.g. earthquake, landslide, tornadoes vandalism e.g. throwing of rocks, shooting Non-brittle material with reduced risk of handling damages As composite insulators are non-brittle with shock resistance, the risk of damage to the equipment during transport, installation and service is reduced. If, however, a minor shed damage occurs, it can be easily repaired in the field. This is not the case for porcelain insulators. Leakage current control due to hydrophobicity Composite insulators with silicone rubber sheds have the added benefit of being hydrophobic, a Greek term meaning fears water. This characteristic helps break up water films and creates separate droplets, which reduces leakage current along the insulator surface, prevents flashover and elevates the voltage withstand capability during wet and highly-contaminated conditions. The low leakage current also minimizes discharge activity on the surface and erosion. In effect, the hydrophobicity acts as a self-cleaning property which extends service life and lowers substation maintenance costs. The mechanism behind the hydrophobicity of silicone rubber is the diffusion of low molecular weight, LMW, silicones from the bulk of the material to the surface. The LMW silicone forms a layer on the surface that is hydrophobic (non-wetting). This layer is extremely thin, only a few molecular layers, and is distributed all over the surface, thus forming the hydrophobic layer. The LMW silicones in the silicone rubber diffuse to the surface over the entire life of the insulator; however, the loss

of material over the lifetime is negligible and does not impair the other insulator properties. Another ability of silicone is its ability to encapsulate contaminated particles. Under heavy and prolonged pollution, the hydrophobic characteristic may be reduced temporarily, but it recovers quickly as soon as the conditions are normalized. Testing carried out shows loss of hydrophobicity during the extreme conditions of a 1,000 h salt fog test to the order of 200-500 h. The insulators recover within a few days if allowed to dry, faster if exposed to UV light and high temperatures. Provided they are new, polymeric materials other than silicone rubber may also exhibit hydrophobic properties. However, these materials normally lose their hydrophobicity after a relatively short time in service.

Excellent insulation to reduce creepage requirement Composite insulators have excellent insulation properties and outstanding contamination performance due to the HTV silicone rubber. Published field studies show that it is possible to reduce the required creepage distance by at least one pollution level when composite insulators are chosen over porcelain. Flashover resistance The efficient suppression of leakage currents means that the risk of flashover is reduced compared to porcelain insulators. Erosion resistance It is inevitable that even silicone rubber will show some discharge activity in the event of severe pollution, thought it is less than for non-hydrophobic materials such as porcelain. With proper material formulation and a suitable insulator design, such discharge activity can be minimized. The silicone rubber used for ABB composite insulators is further protected by aluminum trihydrate, ATH, which has proven arc and fire resistance capabilities.

The aging resistance of ABB composite insulators has been verified by accelerated aging tests, like the 1,000 h salt fog test and the 5,000 h cyclic test and at test stations in various climates around the world.

Outstanding seismic performance provides safety and reliability The low weight and the shock-proof design of composite insulators compared to porcelain offer advantages in terms of earthquake resistance capability. No shock absorbers or special designs are required in seismic areas.

Low weight for cost savings Composite insulators are much lighter and provide higher performance than porcelain insulators. This leads to a drastic reduction in the use of the other materials that make up HV electrical substations, such as foundation materials and the bearing structures. The installation phase is also easier due to the reduced need for heavy installation equipment. Maintenance-free and outstanding pollution performance HTV silicone rubber has the ability to transfer its water-repellent properties into pollution layers which cover the surface. This eliminates the need for maintenance or cleaning of the high voltage apparatuses in polluted environments. Expensive solutions normally used for porcelain, such as cleaning, greasing or coating, can be avoided. UV stability HTV silicone rubber is UV and ozone resistant. Natural UV radiation from the sun has wavelengths of over 300 nanometers. Shorter and more energetic wavelengths are filtered out in the atmosphere. Silicone has its maximum absorption below this wavelength, which ensures superior stability against UV radiation.

Additional advantages Other advantages of composite insulators are short and reliable delivery time, best possible strength-to-weight ratio, the possibility of reducing gas volume on SF6 breaker bushing with conical insulators compared to cylindrical designs, proven aging resistance and high inherent fire resistance.

Evaluating a great concept

ABB composite insulators are thoroughly tested to international standards and higher. They are installed all over the world and have been proven excellent performance under all climates and harsh conditions such as coastal, desert and industrial environments.
Service experience Since 1985, when the first ABB high voltage equipment with silicone rubber sheds were installed, ABB has delivered a large number of high-voltage apparatuses equipped with composite insulators. They have been installed in a wide range of environments, from marine to desert and/or areas with industrial pollution. The performance of ABB insulators and products in installations with extreme environmental conditions has been studied in detail, and the results have been published in a number of wellknown conferences and journals. The observations show excellent performance with insignificant changes in material properties. The silicone material has proven its outstanding performance at test stations in severe climates and commercial installations all over the world. Between 1985 and 2009, ABB has delivered a large number of HV apparatuses with hollow composite insulators:

7,500 dead tank circuit breakers 3,500 live tank circuit breakers 5,500 outdoor instrument transformers 10,000 transformer bushings 3,500 cable terminations 2,500 surge arresters

In total have over 60,000 ABB hollow composite insulators been supplied to customers worldwide. The volume is increasing year by year.

Extensive testing ABB composite insulators with silicone rubber sheds have been subject to extensive testing to ensure a high quality level and to verify their mechanical and electrical properties under all environmental conditions. Aging withstand, electrical and mechanical erosion resistance and UV stability have been fully verified. Natural pollution tests are continually performed at test stations in both marine and desert climates. Testing is also performed at low ambient temperatures, down to -60C. The composite insulators comply fully with the requirements specified by IEC. The insulators have been subject to vandalism tests in which objects have been thrown at the insulators.

A circuit breaker with composite insulators has even been subjected to gunfire to show that this kind of damage does not cause complete breakdown or explosion that may injure personnel or damage surrounding equipment. Examples of performed tests: High and low temperature Dielectric UV radiation Accelerated aging Mechanical strength Over-pressure Seismic Shatter

Field test Test installations have been made to gain information on long-term behavior with respect to optimal creepage distance of HV apparatuses in different environments. A number of surge arresters, bushings and circuit breakers with composite insulators using silicone rubber as external insulation have been installed at different sites. These have been subjected to heavy or very heavy pollution levels for a test period up to seven years. The test stations were chosen to represent all possible climates, including coastal, subtropical and desert areas. The results, presented in a CIGRE report, verify the improved hydrophobicity and low leakage current properties of composite insulators.

With regard to pollution performance, the short-term and long-term hydrophobicity characteristics of silicone rubber apparatus insulators are better than those of porcelain insulators. The number of high pulses in the leakage current, giving risk of a flashover, is much lower for silicone rubber insulators than for porcelain insulators. A large margin exists in the specific creepage distance of composite apparatus insulators in comparison to porcelain insulators.

Long-term field tests of ABB composite insulators have also been performed at very high voltage stress, 800 kV DC, together with ABB High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) unit. The field tests and our extensive deliveries for 800 kV DC applications (wall bushings, transformer bushings, circuit breakers, instrument transformers, voltage dividers, support insulators) is a verification of the insulators excellent insulation properties and the durability of the design.
