my uncle worked in an insulators factory and i still remember the feeling of touching the smooth cold insulators. all kinds of shapes and colors, some small enough to fit in my pocket and some much taller than me... i was fascinated by them as a kid but i was also afraid of them because of my grandma's stories of those insulators being dropped, shattering and blinding people. the facility where they were testing the insulators was scarier than hell for me. workers were wearing full body rubber suits, skull and crossbones signs everywhere and the sound/smell of electric arcs... in my mind everyone there was basically a knight in dark armor fighting invisible evil dragons :}

In fact, the metalling ring in some cases has another scope: bypassing the isolator in case of lighting stroke on the power line. That's because when a lighting stroke occur on the power line the voltage reached is much higher of the nominal voltage of the power line and that can damage the isolators and the others components working on the line, the ring in that case act like a conductor that allow an arc to the ground through the metal pylon that is always grounded. Of course the distance between the metallic ring and the pylon is calculated to allow a bypass only when a certain voltage is reached

Yes the guard ring.. It's compensates the earth capacitances and also provides the path for flash over current by protecting the insulators.. And this will also be shared with the lightning arrestors.

Same! I wondered why the heck they would put plates and bowls up there to hold the wires and not just a cylinder isolator of some type! Used to think they were up there because restaurants no longer wanted old plates and the landfill was getting so sick of seeing them in the fill so they bolted th together and strung them up on power lines to make use of unwanted plates! It led me to collect over too many of them from sales, auctions and pole change outs while meeting some great friends with great knowledge and history for these insulators! They are very intriguing pieces of technological art!

Every "umbrella" disk provide 15 KV AC of dielectric insulation. A 220 KV 50 Hz line uses insulators with 20 - 22 disks. There is a mathematical formula which optimise the number of disks, their size, and their spacing. Insulators usually include a safety factor of up to 50% to counter the effects of inductive loads, overvoltage, and lightning strikes. The insulators on HVDC power transmission lines have a different composition and a different design, because they are less subject to capacitive losses, but more subject to ion migration. Thank you Lesics, for this great video...

when I was a kid I had a weird interest in transmission towers( I still have). I grew up next to a substation so I'd always see them every day. When we were moving out, I asked grandma to get me to the large park because there was a massive tower. And there I found a broken insulator next to the tower. I think it was there because it was old and they changed it. I brought it home and washed it then kept it for myself

I remember on a school trip I used all my camera film taking pictures of the power poles along the way rather than at the place were going LOL. My father even let us build some in our large back yard in the country. We put 8-foot poles in the yard with insulators and wire, and I energized it with low voltage. I collected a few of the insulators over the years (still have them in the garage). They are quite large in person. I liked the bell insulators the most.
