Experience
Since its introduction in 2002, VoltShield has
been increasing the efficiency of glazed ceramic
and glass electrical insulators worldwide.
VoltShield has been applied on insulators in the
UK, Japan and Australia with great success.
Workers on treated sites have been impressed
with the easier maintenance properties. For
example, in a major ironworks site in Japan, the
porcelain insulators were heavily contaminated
with salt which impaired performance. Prior to
VoltShield protection, the insulators had to be
thoroughly cleaned every six months in addition
to cleaned with high pressured water every ten
days. After treatment with VoltShield, frequency
of cleaning was significantly reduced and
performance increased.
In the UK, a major energy supplier has invested
in VoltShield treatment because the company
found the technology dramatically increased the
performance of its 132kV insulators by reducing
incidence of power loss from flashovers.
A
Project Engineer from the energy supplier was
impressed, stating:
“After the application of
your VoltShield product to the insulator, as far
as I am aware, we haven't had a single flashover,
which in my eyes is a success".
