Orient Power uses a Silicone formulation that has been unchanged since the early 90’s. The silicone rubber is very stable and has bond strengths higher than porcelain, making the silicone resistant to the electrical insulator, also called silicon insulator. After most silicone rubber suspension insulators replace the porcelain suspension insulator.

The silicon insulator properties
In addition to providing protection against the ultraviolet radiation, electrical aging, and corona effect, silicone exhibits hydrophobic properties; which provide excellent recovery characteristics to control leakage currents in highly polluted or coastal environments. For example, as one main of silicon insulators, silicone rubber suspension insulator can be used on transmission lines in contamination areas.

Orient Power silicone rubber formulation has consistently outperformed other silicone formulations in its hydrophobicity, its hydrophobicity recovery rate, and enhanced electrical properties in contaminated environments. Nowadays more and more countries use silicon insulators with its good hydrophobicity.
