When I was young I used to wonder why tea discs are hung on high voltage lines. Today I think back to my childhood and am ashamed of my stupidity.

They used to be made of glass and come in different shapes and colors. My great grandmother used to collect them and had all sorts from the early 20th century.

Is there anything grandmothers don't collect?

my uncle worked in an insulators factory and i still remember the feeling of touching the smooth cold insulators. all kinds of shapes and colors, some small enough to fit in my pocket and some much taller than me... i was fascinated by them as a kid but i was also afraid of them because of my grandma's stories of those insulators being dropped, shattering and blinding people. the facility where they were testing the insulators was scarier than hell for me. workers were wearing full body rubber suits, skull and crossbones signs everywhere and the sound/smell of electric arcs... in my mind everyone there was basically a knight in dark armor fighting invisible evil dragons :}

I am also an engineer. I am glad to see that you mentioned that you are an engineer first. It is an unwritten rule that we are first supposed to identify ourselves as engineers in every conversation. 🤣 For example, if you are walking your dog and someone says, "What I nice dog you have." You should say something like, "Well, I'm an engineer, so when I look at dogs I see their functionality as the beautiful part. Like protecting my home, chasing away rodents, etc."

Wow 😳 we miss the engineering and science in everyday things we see😕

The contour shape of the Insulators, i.e the umbrella shape helps to reduce the surface charge density.

In my early career days I used to climb on transformers to clean the insulators. It was part of weekly maintenance. They are a vital part of electricity as we see it today. There are many forms of insulators like glass, sfp gas, etc depending on the application. Good to see videos on this topic.

This channel is quickly becoming the ultimate reference for engineering animations.

In fact, the metalling ring in some cases has another scope: bypassing the isolator in case of lighting stroke on the power line. That's because when a lighting stroke occur on the power line the voltage reached is much higher of the nominal voltage of the power line and that can damage the isolators and the others components working on the line, the ring in that case act like a conductor that allow an arc to the ground through the metal pylon that is always grounded. Of course the distance between the metallic ring and the pylon is calculated to allow a bypass only when a certain voltage is reached

Yes the guard ring.. It's compensates the earth capacitances and also provides the path for flash over current by protecting the insulators.. And this will also be shared with the lightning arrestors.

This video seriously helped answer my question of why they are shaped that way! They are great collector items as well due to their unique shape and styles.

I love the old white ceramic bell type (not represented here) and bottle green glass ones. They remind me of the 60s and 70s, the economic boom of my country and the power grid reaching for the first time in history the countryside. I sometimes shoot them with my cameras and I've even made an homage piece of Magritte's art that reads "Ceci n'est pas un isolant"

When I was kid, I thought they were just big plates and had no use at all. It's amazing to know about it after a decade!

@thatonelonelyeagle5398

Same! I wondered why the heck they would put plates and bowls up there to hold the wires and not just a cylinder isolator of some type! Used to think they were up there because restaurants no longer wanted old plates and the landfill was getting so sick of seeing them in the fill so they bolted th together and strung them up on power lines to make use of unwanted plates! It led me to collect over too many of them from sales, auctions and pole change outs while meeting some great friends with great knowledge and history for these insulators! They are very intriguing pieces of technological art!

Thank you thank you! For the longest time I've been transfixed by pylon ceramic insulators because I didn't understand them. No matter where I looked they didn't explain them in a way I understood. But you have done it. You've shown me all angles. I finally understand. Thank you.

BEST EXPLANATION EVER!!! I've been looking at them since i was a kid and never understood what they do. SUBSCRIBED!

Great video. I actually learned something! It ended a bit abruptly, however.

Love these videos. No one can explain electric engineering better than this channel

This video explains the evolution of the shape of the insulator on high voltage equipment such as transformer or tower. When I was in freshman year, I asked my electric power system teacher why the insulator shape is like many umbrella layers, he just couldn’t explain it, so this video help my find the answer I have been confused for many years.

very clear explanation.
