The use of electrical equipment is dependent on a range of electrical insulators and terminations. Electrical insulators and termination devices are designed and tested to specific electrical industry standards. Therefore, the range and grade of products available is offered relative to those standards. In this field Weidmann offers insulator bodies, bulk, fluid filled and resin filled bushings, terminal blocks and barrier boards.
Bulk bushings are defined as insulator and electrical hardware, assembled without a dielectric fluid, typically used in distribution transformers and lower voltage ranges of power transformers.
Fluid filled bushings are insulators and associated electrical hardware that are assembled with a dielectric fluid to complete the design and meet the ratings. Fluid filled bushings are typically used in medium and higher level ranges of distribution and power transformers.
Insulator bodies, when assembled with specific electrical hardware, become bushings designed for specific ratings and applications. Insulators and electrical hardware are sold individually.
Terminal blocks are used to transmit electrical energy through conductive materials; there is a large number of styles and number of contacts available.
