Which type of
insulator used for holding the HT overhead conductor on straight running of
poles?
Post insulators
Pin-type insulators
Stay insulators
Shackle
insulators
Pin-type insulators
The pin type
insulator is used in power distribution for the voltage up to 33 kV. It is
placed on the cross arm of the supporting tower. The pin insulator uses
non-conducting material like porcelain, ceramic, silicon, rubber, polymer etc.
These are also used for holding the high transmission overhead conductor on
straight running of poles. Overhead line insulators are used to separate line
conductors from each other and supporting structures.
Hence, the
correct option is (B).
