400kN 송전용 현수애자의 특성연구

A Study on Characteristics of Suspension Insulator for 400kN Transmission Lines

The 400KN suspended insulator was fabricated with feldspar, quartz, clay and $Al_2O_3$ wt% for extra high voltage. These materials were grinded with ball milling for 25 hours after mixing them. The grinded materials were sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 50 minutes in the tunnel kiln after mading with jiggering method. The sintered density of specimen was reached at 97% in comparison with that of theory. The specimen had the characteristic of temperature rise with the increase of electrical losses. Also, the flexural strength and the fracture toughness of sintered parts respectively were 1658 kg/$cm^2$ and 2.3 $MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$.
