Insulators

What are insulators?

An insulator is designed to effect and prevent the flow of electricity. Insulators are manufactured from materials with high resistivity, or high electrical resistance, depending on the application or surroundings.

What insulators are available through AE Components?

At AE Components, we understand that a strong electrical system demands reliable components. That’s why we are proud to be an Australian distributor for Georg Jordan, who are known for their excellence in the industry. Georg Jordan specialise in quality cast resin insulators, for low voltage and high voltage applications. All Georg Jordan insulators are capacitively measured and tested for switchgear using:

  • High voltage testing

  • Partial discharge testing

  • X-ray scanning

AE Components also stocks the standard range of Standoff Insulators, with sizes ranging from M6-M20.

Where are insulators used?

Insulators are commonly used in electrical, power generation, rail, automation, and telecommunication applications. Insulators are used in circuit breakers, capacitors, earthing switches, fuse boxes, insulation housings, interrupters, switch disconnectors, gas-insulated switchgears (GIS), air-insulated switchgears (AIS), transformers, wind turbines and solar farms.
