Insulators are generally made of glass or electric porcelain. Insulators are a special type of insulation control mainly used for installation between conductors of different potentials or between conductors and grounding components to withstand voltage and mechanical stress. It is usually made of insulating materials, which can be divided into two categories: organic and inorganic. The materials of inorganic insulators include ceramics, glass, and composite materials, which have high mechanical strength and stability, and can resist the effects of high temperatures and harsh environments. Organic insulator materials are commonly used in low-voltage and internal device applications, such as silicone rubber, polyurethane, polyethylene, etc. These materials are usually lighter, easier to process and install than inorganic materials, but their insulation performance is slightly inferior. ‌
