en.Wedoany.com Reported - Rosseti, the Russian grid company, plans to replace over 9,000 insulators on high-voltage transmission lines in the Altai Territory to reduce the risk of short circuits and improve the reliability of power supply in the region. The new insulators are made of domestically produced tempered glass, offering high mechanical strength and good durability, with defects that can be quickly identified visually, helping to accelerate fault detection and repair processes. The primary function of insulators is to secure conductors and lightning protection wires to poles and maintain the necessary safety clearances between network components.

The scope of this equipment upgrade covers power supply facilities for large industrial enterprises and traction transmission lines for the Central Siberian Railway. Specifically, approximately 4,500 new insulators will be installed on 500 kV transmission lines, which connect the Novosibirsk Oblast grid and ensure power transmission between Barnaul and Rubtsovsk; another over 1,100 insulators will be installed on 220 kV lines supplying power to the city of Gornyak.
