H2: Material & Construction
Every unit of the ZSW-35/8 Station Post Insulator is made from high-grade wet-process porcelain, fired at high temperature to achieve maximum density and near-zero porosity. The solid-core line post design ensures easy handling and reliable performance under extreme thermal cycling. The hard, glossy glaze coating offers good self-cleaning properties, reducing maintenance frequency.
Metal parts are made of galvanized malleable iron, ductile iron, steel, or aluminum, with ferrous parts hot-dip galvanized per applicable standards. Both brown and light gray glaze colors are available. For more on porcelain manufacturing standards, visit the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC): https://www.iec.ch

H2: ZSW-35/8 Station Post Insulator Quality & Performance Advantages
Compared to polymer alternatives, porcelain offers unmatched resistance to UV radiation, bird pecking, and scratch damage. Its glaze reduces continuous water film formation, significantly raising pollution flashover voltage.
Moreover, the ZSW-35/8 Station Post Insulator requires minimal routine maintenance and delivers a service life of over 30 years under normal operating conditions. Full testing procedures are detailed in IEC standards, published by the International Electrotechnical Commission.
Every unit undergoes 100% routine electrical and mechanical testing before dispatch, including visual inspection, dimensional checks, mechanical load tests, and high-voltage withstand tests. Design tests — such as power frequency dry and wet withstand, lightning impulse withstand, and thermal shock — are performed per IEC standards on new designs.
Quality conformance tests including porosity, galvanizing, cantilever-strength, and torsion-strength tests are conducted on each lot. Full test reports and traceability records are provided for each batch.
