Polymer Station Post InsulatorsNGK-Locke Polymer Insulators (NLPI) provides polymer stationpost (SP) insulators that are manufactured using the sameunsurpassed designs, materials, and quality control used in ourpolymer suspension & line post insulators. Our end fitting sealingsystem employs double O-rings plus an RTV sealant that havedemonstrated excellent protection against moisture penetration.The housing material is silicone rubber, which provides excellentcontamination performance. This housing is formed by compressionmolding silicone rubber onto the core as one continuous part free ofany joints. Both housing and core are chemically bonded togetherduring the vulcanization process. The strength of this bond isgreater than the tearing strength of the silicone housing materialitself. End fittings are then assembled by a pressure controlled,multi-step, crimping process. Overall length and hole alignmentare controlled by NLPIs unique design and manufacturing process.

This process provides the SP with more severe tolerances required for substation equipment. Asshown below, NLPIs polymer station post insulators have excellent seismic performance due totheir flexibility. NLPI produces polymer SP with a 2.5 and a 3.5 diameter solid core.
230kV, 3.5 SP (Bus Support) Seismic Test on 230kV, 3.5 SP 69kV, 3.5 SPin accordance with IEEE 693
Application Guidelines for Polymer Station Posts (SP) NLPIs SP complies with dimensional and electrical values in accordance with ANSI C29.9
Technical Reference (TR) Number. The cantilever and tension strengths exceed therequired values of the ANSI standard. Compression and torsion strengths are given asguaranteed values.
Specified Cantilever Load (SCL) is breaking load guaranteed by manufacturer and shouldbe less than Cantilever Breaking Load (CBL), which is the maximum load reached during acantilever breaking test.
The deflection values shown in this catalog correspond to the deflections measured at therelevant ANSI TR porcelains Maximum Working Load (MWL is specified as 40% of the ANSITR porcelains cantilever strength).
SP for underhung applications are also available. Contact your NGK representative formore information.

PackagingAll of NLPIs insulators are packed in weatherproof containers in order to protect the products during land,air, and sea transportation. Several different grades of packaging can be offered depending on the modeof transport and the expected storage conditions. The packaging options that we offer are 1) standardgrade/prefabricated packing, 2) economical grade/cardboard carton, and 3) best grade/closed woodencrate. Since the user best knows their crate requirements, they should select the option that is most suitedto their needs and include that information in the purchasing specification. Special packagingarrangements can be accommodated upon request.
Each container is marked with the number of insulators it contains, the catalog number, themanufacturers name, and any other customer requests. Also, a Polymer Station Post Insulator HandlingInstruction sheet is included with all containers. This sheet states any necessary cautions duringhandling, transportation, and installation. If corona rings are to be included, a corona ring installationsheet is also provided.
