  • Abstract
    Injury to a single insulator, under certain conditions of operation, renders an entire transmission line, many miles in length, entirely inoperative until the faulty insulator be discovered and replaced. The longer the line the more difficult it becomes to find a broken insulator, or to locate other irregularities in operating conditions, and a correspondingly long time is consumed in restoring the line to service.
