H1: XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator (U120BLP) Suspension — 120kN, 450mm Creepage, 120kV Lightning Impulse, Brown/Gray Glaze, IEC 60383
The XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator (U120BLP) Suspension is the highest-strength cap-and-pin disc insulator in our anti-pollution series, engineered for medium‑voltage AC overhead transmission and distribution lines requiring maximum mechanical capacity and superior pollution performance. Its ultra-long creepage distance of 450mm and 120kN mechanical rating deliver unparalleled reliability in the most demanding contaminated environments.
Manufactured in compliance with IEC 60383 international standards, this anti-pollution insulator features a robust porcelain disc body with a standard cap-and-pin design. The unit is available in either brown (standard) or gray (optional) glaze, both offering identical mechanical and electrical performance.
With a combined mechanical and electrical (M&E) failing load of 120kN and an ultra-long creepage distance of 450mm, the XWP2-120 delivers dependable performance on 33–66 kV lines in the most severe contamination zones — providing a 50kN strength advantage over 70kN anti-pollution insulators and a 20kN advantage over 100kN models, all while maintaining the same 450mm creepage distance.
The advanced anti-pollution shed design incorporates an optimised multi-rib profile that maximises creepage length while maintaining superior self‑cleaning properties. The 280mm diameter and 160mm spacing ensure excellent pollution performance and mechanical stability under extreme conditions.
Whether you are designing lines for the most demanding strain towers, long spans in severely contaminated areas, or high-load applications requiring maximum mechanical strength, the XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension offers the ultimate high‑performance choice for your infrastructure, with the flexibility to select your preferred glaze color.
H2: XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension — Technical Specifications (Brown & Gray Glaze)
The XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension is rated with a combined mechanical and electrical (M&E) failing load of 120kN — the highest in the anti-pollution series — making it suitable for tangent suspension, light‑tension, strain, and dead‑end applications on 33–66 kV overhead lines in severely contaminated areas where maximum mechanical strength is required.
Its ultra-long creepage distance of 450mm — 150mm longer than standard 300mm designs — provides superior pollution flashover performance in the most severe industrial, coastal, desert, and heavy-contamination environments. The dry lightning impulse withstand voltage reaches 120kV (positive polarity), and the power frequency wet withstand voltage is 45kV — 3kV higher than 70kN anti-pollution models.
The nominal diameter is 280mm, with a spacing (height) of 160mm. The larger physical dimensions accommodate the ultra-long 450mm creepage distance while maintaining mechanical stability and self‑cleaning performance.
The coupling hardware is the standard 16 ball‑and‑socket type, ensuring full interchangeability with existing fittings per IEC dimensional requirements.
The glaze is available in both brown (standard) and gray (optional). All other technical parameters — mechanical, electrical, and dimensional — are identical between the two color options.
Every unit undergoes a routine proof test load of 60kN and an impact strength test of 10Nm to verify mechanical integrity prior to dispatch. Power frequency puncture voltage reaches 120kV, and radio interference voltage (RIV) is exceptionally low at just 50μV at 1000 kHz.

Note: The advanced anti-pollution design of the XWP2-120 suspension insulator combines the highest 120kN mechanical rating in the series with an ultra-long 450mm creepage distance — delivering maximum mechanical strength and superior flashover performance in the most severe contamination environments.
The 60kN routine proof test and 10Nm impact strength demonstrate exceptional mechanical robustness. Both brown and gray glazes offer the same outstanding performance.
H2: XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension — Material and Construction
Each XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension unit is produced from high‑grade porcelain, fired at over 1,300 °C using the wet process, achieving maximum density and near‑zero porosity.
The cap-and-pin design features a porcelain disc body with a standard metal cap and pin. The metal components are manufactured from malleable cast iron and hot‑dip galvanised steel, providing excellent corrosion resistance in diverse atmospheric conditions. The highest-in-series 120kN rating is achieved through enhanced mechanical design and premium material selection.
The advanced anti-pollution shed profile is carefully engineered to maximise creepage distance (450mm) while maintaining superior self‑cleaning properties. The 280mm diameter and 160mm spacing provide additional surface area for improved pollution performance and enhanced mechanical stability.
The cement bonding between the porcelain body and metal parts uses high‑quality Portland cement, guaranteeing mechanical stability across extreme thermal cycling.
The hard, glossy glaze — available in brown or gray — further enhances self‑cleaning and maintains surface integrity over decades of service. Both glaze colors are applied using the same high‑quality process, ensuring identical durability, hardness, and electrical performance.
H2: XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension — Applications and Installation
The XWP2-120 Anti-Pollution Insulator Suspension is widely deployed on 33 kV to 66 kV AC overhead transmission and distribution lines, as well as substation entry towers, in areas where maximum mechanical strength and severe contamination conditions exist simultaneously.
The 120kN mechanical rating — the highest in the anti-pollution series — combined with the ultra-long 450mm creepage distance makes it particularly suitable for:
- Heavy industrial zones with strain and dead‑end towers – Where airborne contaminants create severe pollution conditions, and maximum mechanical strength is required for strain and dead‑end configurations.
- Coastal and marine environments with extreme wind loads – Where heavy salt spray combines with extreme wind loads, requiring the highest mechanical capacity and maximum pollution performance.
- Long-span river crossings in contaminated areas – Where conductor weight and tension are maximised, combined with severe pollution challenges.
- Heavy icing zones with severe contamination – Where ice accretion adds significant weight and mechanical stress, requiring maximum mechanical rating and pollution performance.
- Critical transmission corridors – Where system reliability is paramount, and both mechanical and pollution margins must be maximised.
Its 120kN mechanical capacity makes it suitable for suspension, light‑tension, strain, and dead‑end applications, with maximum strength margin for long spans, angle towers, heavy icing, and extreme loading conditions. The ultra-long 450mm creepage provides reliable performance even under the most severe pollution conditions.
Typical application scenarios include:
- 33 kV lines – Double suspension strings or strain applications in severely polluted industrial and coastal areas requiring maximum mechanical strength.
- 66 kV lines – Strain, dead‑end, and heavy-angle towers where both pollution performance and maximum mechanical strength are critical.
- Substation entries – Heavy-duty insulation for strain and dead‑end towers in the most contaminated environments.
- Critical infrastructure – Lines where system reliability is paramount and maximum performance margins are required.
The standard 16 ball‑and‑socket coupling ensures compatibility with existing clevis pins, yokes, and socket hardware. The anti-pollution disc design facilitates easy hot‑stick handling for live‑line maintenance, minimizing system downtime during replacements.
