Bus Post Insulator

The document discusses bus post insulators used in electrical systems. It describes post insulators as similar to pin insulators, with the conductor fixed to the top of the insulator using a clamp. It lists factors that govern insulator selection such as system voltage, earthing, insulation levels, mechanical strength, and environmental conditions. The document also outlines the manufacturing process and various tests conducted on post insulators, including type, routine, and acceptance tests checking visual characteristics, mechanical strength, and electrical performance.
