Mechanical & Physical Tests on our Silicone Compound
Electrical Tests on our Silicone compound
Resistance to Corona
UV Resistance Test (ASTM G53)
Dye Penetration Test
Water Diffusion Test
Besides the above-mentioned tests, we carry out the following tests regularly on our FRP rods:
All these are to convey that we understand the importance of role of composite insulators in power transmission and the importance of their long term uninterrupted performance.
