Hubbell has been leading the

way with polymer insulators

under the distinguished Ohio

Brass name since 1976. Veri*Lite

distribution insulators embody

the latest in polymer design

and manufacturing features.

Our Veri*Lite insulators are

backed by thorough testing and research to provide our customers with

high performance products. More than 20 million distribution deadend

and suspension insulators have been put into

service around the world. Hubbell is dedicated

to providing superior products and service to

the power industry.

Performance

Page 5 | April 2012

Porcelain Bell Equivalents — The full line of Veri*Lite

suspension and deadend insulators are direct equivalents to

5 ¾ inch x 10 inch and 4 ¼ inch x 6 ¼ inch porcelain bells,

respectively. Please refer to the Electrical Characteristics table

for the number of bell equivalents, on pages 9 and 11.

DS Class Ratings — The polymer deadend insulator product

line has an offering for several DS class ratings, in accordance

with ANSI C29.13 and CSA C411.5-10 standards. Please refer to

the Electrical Characteristics table on page 9 for the appropriate

insulator class rating.

Rod — Veri*Lite Insulators are produced from the highest

quality materials. Strands in the ﬁberglass rod are aligned for

maximum tensile strength, and the rod is ﬁlled 70 percent, by

weight, with electrical grade glass ﬁbers.

End Fittings — Ferrous end ﬁttings are crimped directly to the ﬁberglass rod by a process originated by

Ohio Brass and later adopted by other manufacturers. The crimp requires no intermovement of the parts

to achieve high strength, nor does it introduce potting compounds or adhesives.

Weathersheds — Veri*Lite Insulators are manufactured with ESP™ rubber, the same proven material

used in PDV arresters and Hi*Lite Insulators. ESP™ is a polymer compound made by alloying silicone and

EPDM rubber. This alloy offers the desired toughness and resistance to tracking of the original EPR, along

with the hydrophobic characteristics derived from low molecular weight silicone oils.

Testing You Can Count On… Hubbell’s state-of-the-art electrical and mechanical testing facilities are

capable of performing ANSI, IEC, CSA, and other industry required tests. Tracking, QUV, corona cutting,

salt fog, oxidative stability, and variations of differential thermal analysis are just a sample of tests

performed to ensure the quality of our polymer material.

For further information on our polymers, ask your Hubbell Ohio Brass representative for the publication

“Polymer Materials for Insulator Weathersheds”, EU1264 – H.

Distinguished by Design

Page 6 | April 2012

Leakage Distance — Veri*Lite Insulators feature high

leakage distance for optimum contamination performance.

Cleaning — Washing of the Veri*Lite suspension and dead-

end insulators may be required based on the contamination

level of the installation locaton. In the event that washing is

required, the procedures outlined in Section IX of the “IEEE

GUIDE FOR INSULATOR CLEANING,” IEEE STD 957-2005 are

generally applicable.

Standards — Veri*Lite suspension and deadend insulators

meet the latest ANSI/IEEE-1024, CSA C411.5-10, and IEC-61109

standards. Hubbell’s manufacturing facilities have implemented

a quality system in accordance with ISO 9001-2008.

Mechanical Ratings — The Speciﬁed Mechanical Load (SML)

rating for all Veri*Lite suspension and deadend insulators is

15,000 Ibs. The Routine Test Load (RTL) rating for these

insulators is 50% of the SML rating.

All Veri*Lite suspension and deadend insulators are proof tested to 10,000 Ibs

in tension prior to shipment from the factory. This test load exceeds the RTL

rating of the insulator to ensure the quality of our product.

Markings — Markings for Veri*Lite suspension and deadend insulators are

permanently embossed into the end ﬁttings and polymer housing. Markings

include SML rating, date of manufacture, DS rating in accordance with ANSI

C29.13 and CSA C411.5-10 standards, and Ohio Brass identiﬁcation.

Packaging — The standard packaging of Veri*Lite suspension and deadend

insulators is in boxes stacked on pallets. The quantity per box and pallet

vary based on the catalog number. Please refer to the Mechanical characteristics

table in this catalog for the standard packing quantities.

Product Performance

Page 7 | April 2012

The following must be performed to certify a material for use in production.

Tracking test: Performed on a sample of material inclined at 15° and

electrodes positioned 35 mm apart. Samples are sprayed with a conductive

solution (400Ωcm) and energized at 10kV. The cycle is repeated every 90

seconds. The sample passes if there is:

1. No carbonization or tracking.

2. No erosion through sample.

3. No leakage current ﬂow at the end of 90 seconds.

The sample must withstand 20,000 test cycles.

Ultraviolet Test: Samples of the rubber must be tested in a QUV tester or

equivalent cyclic weatherometer. The samples are exposed to high ultraviolet

radiation and high humidity without cracking, checking, or becoming hydrophilic.

The sample is judged to have passed this test if it exceeds 8,000 hours of

exposure without damage.

Corona Cutting: Samples 5 cm by 7 cm are subjected to mechanical stress

of 300,000 microstrain by bending samples over a grounded electrode. A needle-like

electrode is placed 1 mm from the surface of the sample and energized at 12 kV

in a controlled humidity chamber. The sample is judged to have passed this

test if there is no splitting or cutting during 1,000 hours of exposure to these

test conditions.

Oxidative Stability: Samples of the polymer compound are tested using

differential scanning calorimetry. Samples are heated rapidly in a nitrogen

atmosphere to the test temperature of 200°C. The atmosphere is then changed

to air, and the temperature is maintained until the antioxidant is consumed, as

measured by an exothermic chemical reaction. The time for this reaction to occur

must exceed 300 minutes.

Tear Strength: Rubber test slabs are prepared in accordance with ASTM

Standards and are tested to determine tear strength of the material. The

minimum acceptable tear strength is 150 lb/in.

JUNE 2012 OHIO BRASS – AIKEN, SC, USA

Veri*Lite Insulators embody the latest features avail-

able in polymer insulator design and manufacture.

Ohio Brass began its efforts in polymer research in the

early 1900s. After years of production and research

with polymeric compounds in the high voltage insula-

tion eld, Ohio Brass introduced the Hi*Lite insulator in

1976. A decade later the Ohio Brass polymer distribu-

tion arrester, PDV-100, was introduced as the rst U.S.

made polymer-housed MOV arrester.

Today’s Veri*Lite post insulators build upon the experi-

ence of placing nearly 20 million polymer distribution

arresters, 17 million polymer deadend distribution insu-

lators and 2 million high voltage transmission insula-

tors in service. Ohio Brass is dedicated to providing a

quality product for the electric utility industry.

Design

The structural design of the Veri*Lite insulator consists

of three basic parts:

Rod - Veri*Lite insulator berglass rod is produced

from the highest quality materials. Strands are aligned

for maximum tensile strength. The rod is lled 65 per-

cent, by volume, with electrical grade glass bers.

End Fittings - Ferrous end ttings are directly crimped

to the berglass rod by a circumferential crimping pro-

cess originated by Ohio Brass. The crimp requires no

intermovement of the parts to achieve high strength,

nor does it introduce potting compounds or adhesives.

Weathersheds - Veri*Lite insulators are manufactured

with OB’s proprietary silicone rubber.

Ohio Brass uses several tests to evaluate materials.

Tracking, QUV, corona cutting, salt fog, oxidative sta-

bility and variations of differential thermal analysis tests

assure the quality of OB’s shed material.

Leakage Distance

Veri*Lite insulators feature high leakage distance for

optimum contamination performance.

Washability

The Veri*Lite insulators listed in this catalog are suit-

able for washing by all known methods in current use.

Washing tests have been conducted with high-pres-

sure equipment at close nozzle-to-insulator distances.

No water intrusion occurred after multiple washings.

Standards

Veri*Lite line post insulators meet ANSI C29.18-2003

and CEA LWIWG-02-1996 standards.

The Ohio Brass facility in Aiken, SC, USA is registered

for successful implementation of a quality system in

accordance with ISO 9001-2000.

Mechanical Ratings

Specied Cantilever Load (SCL) is the ultimate can-

tilever strength rating. Maximum Design Cantilever

Load (MDCL) or Working Cantilever Load (WCL) is the

maximum continuous cantilever load at which the post

insulator should be applied.

Markings

Markings are 0.12 inch high raised letters in the rubber

and include: Base catalog number, CEA LWIWG Class,

SCL in pounds, MDCL/WCL in kN and date code. Ohio

Brass identication is cast into the end ttings.

Equivalency

Equivalency of line post insulators involves a check of

the general characteristics.

MECHANICAL

Compare the SCL of the polymer insulator to the

cantilever strength rating of the porcelain insulator.

ELECTRICAL

Compare porcelain to Veri*Lite leakage distance.

Compare porcelain to Veri*Lite section length.

Insulation Coordination

The operating performance of a distribution or trans-

mission line depends on its insulation level. It must not

ash over under practically any operating condition.

Several methods of coordination of line and station

insulation have been proposed. Generally, the best

method is to establish a denite common insulation

level for all the station insulation and then match that

level with the line insulation. With this approach, the

task is limited to three fundamental requirements:

1. Selection of the Basic Impulse Insulation Level

(BIL).

2. Specication of insulation with ashover charac-

teristics equal to or greater than the selected BIL.

3. The application of suitable overvoltage surge

protection.

Purpose: To ensure a suitable service life of polymer insulating materials.

I. Material Design Tests

- The following must be performed to certify a material for use in production.

1. Tracking test: Performed on a sample of material inclined at 30° and electrodes posi-

tioned 35 mm apart. Samples are sprayed with a conductive solution (400 Ωcm) and ener-

gized at 10 kV. The cycle is repeated every 90 seconds. The sample passes if there is:

1. No carbonization or tracking.

2. No erosion through sample.

3. No leakage current ow at the end of 90 seconds.

The sample must withstand 20,000 test cycles.

2. Ultraviolet Test: Samples of the rubber must be tested in a QUV tester or equivalent cy-

clic weatherometer. The samples are exposed to high ultraviolet radiation and high humid-

ity without cracking, checking or becoming hydrophilic.

The sample is judged to have passed this test if it exceeds 8,000 hours of exposure with-

out damage.

3. Corona Cutting: Samples 5 cm by 7 cm are subjected to mechanical stress of 300,000

microstrain by bending samples around a grounded electrode. A needle-like electrode is

placed 1 mm from the surface of the sample and energized at 12 kV in a controlled humid-

ity chamber.

The sample is judged to have passed this test if there is no splitting or cutting. Samples

must pass 1,000 hours of exposure to this test.

4. Oxidative Stability: Samples of the polymer compound are tested using differential

scanning calorimetry. Samples are heated rapidly in a nitrogen atmosphere to the test

temperature of 200°C. The atmosphere is then changed to oxygen and the temperature

is maintained until the antioxidant is consumed, as measured by an exothermic chemical

reaction. The time for this reaction to occur must exceed 400 minutes.

5. Tear Strength: Rubber test slabs are prepared in accordance with ASTM Standards and

are tested to determine tear strength of the material. The acceptable nominal tear strength,

per ASTM method B, is 100 lb./in.

II. Other Requirements

- The manufacturer must supply upon request a listing of routine tests performed to ensure

production compliance with design tests.

Sample Polymer Specication

Satisfactory performance is generally achieved with an

insulator which has a dry 60 Hz ashover of three to

ve times the phase-to-ground voltage and a leak-

age distance approximately twice the shortest air-gap

(strike) distance.

Packaging

Veri*Lite insulator standard packing is cartons on pal-

lets. Larger orders for Veri*Lite posts may be shipped

in wood crates.

crossarm. The brackets can be installed on the pole in less than ﬁve

minutes, requiring only two 3/4" bolts for attachment. Uni-Brackets ﬁt

poles having a pole-top diameter from 6" to 81/2". Slot on top is 11/16" x

21/4".

No. 9183 brackets can be adapted to a variety of distribution construc-

tion using post-type insulators from 15 through 34.5 kV.

SUPER TOP-TIE® Line Ties

• for Pin, Post and Spool Insulators

Made of aluminum-clad steel compatible with aluminum,

aluminum-alloy and ACSR conductors in the top grooves of

vertical-mounted *ANSI Class C, F, J and many non-standard

pin and post insulators (single-or double-support) or on *ANSI

53-2 spool insulators (horizontal or vertical).

High-density polyethylene hooks provide the wide applica-

tion range and ensure proper installation. If used over armor

rods (not required), select tie size based on total conductor/

armor diameter. Semiconductive-rubber pad and high-density-

polyethylene on loops protect against abrasion of insulator,

conductor and tie. Fit is resilient and provides superior

performance under galloping and aeolian vibration. Install

by hand or with hot-line tools.

Veri*Lite Line Post Insulators - Silicone

The Ohio Brass Universal Clamp end tting is used with the Veri*LiteTM

Line Post (VLLP) insulator family. Combining the proven direct bond

silicone technology of the Ohio Brass VLLP design, the Universal

Clamp offers a exible range-taking connection that can be installed in

either the vertical or horizontal direction. The Universal Clamp design

eliminates the need for a separate additional conductor clamp; saving

both money and installation time. In addition, the optional hotstick-

operable feature provides exibility for live-line work.

Design Features

• Proven direct bond interface

• Weathersheds molded with proprietary silicone rubber compound

• Universal clamp works for a conductor diameter range of 0.30”

(7.6 mm) to 1.34” (34 mm) to provide exibility in the eld

• Hotline option allows for live-line operability

• Can be installed in vertical or horizontal directions, thus reducing

inventory

• Integral design eliminates need for additional trunnion clamp

• Meets requirements of CEA LWIWG-02-1996 & ANSI C29.18-2003

Hi*Lite® XL Insulators

Hi*Lite XL suspension insulators in this publication em-

body the latest features available in polymer

insulator design and manufacture.

From the early prototypes in 1971, through full scale

introduction in 1976, and through the succeeding years,

Hi*Lite insulators have featured conservative design and

high-quality manufacture.

Today’s Hi*Lite insulators will add to the over 1,000,000

already in service worldwide.

Design

The structural design of the Hi*Lite XL consists of these

basic parts:

Rod - Hi*Lite insulator ﬁberglass rod is produced from

the highest quality materials. Strands are aligned for

maximum tensile strength. The rod is more than 50 per-

cent glass ﬁbers in cross section.

End Fittings - End ﬁttings are steel or ductile iron. They

are crimped directly to the rod by a special process

originated by Ohio Brass, and later adopted by many

other producers. The crimp develops a high percentage

of the rod’s inherent tensile strength. It requires no inter-

movement of the parts to achieve high strength, nor

does it introduce potting compounds or adhesives.

Weathersheds - Weathersheds are high pressure injec-

tion molded by Ohio Brass, from the proprietary com-

pound ESP™. Housings manufactured with ESP silicone

alloy rubber exhibit hydrophobicity, high mechanical

strength, high corona resistance and low permeability

to moisture.

Interface - Hi*Lite insulators use Ohio Brass’ live sili-

cone interface. This feature prevents intrusion of mois-

ture and contaminating elements. If the exterior seal is

damaged, redundant o-ring seals within the live silicone

interface prohibit the lengthwise migration of intrusive

elements between shed and rod.

Leakage Distance

Hi*Lite XL insulators feature high leakage distance for

maximum resistance to contamination and leakage cur-

rents. Speciﬁc leakage distance (leakage divided by dry

arcing distance) is higher than porcelain. Contact Ohio

Brass if you have extra-high leakage distance needs.

Washability

Hi*Lite insulators listed in this catalog are suitable for

ﬂood washing up to 200 psi. The design incorporates

positive, labyrinth seals to ensure long-term security

against water entry. Conventional dry-particle, air-

pressure cleaning methods may also be employed. A

cleaning guideline is available from Ohio Brass.

If your washing requirements exceed ﬂood washing,

contact Ohio Brass.

Mechanical Ratings

Hi*Lite XL suspension insulators are rated and tested in

accordance with ANSI Standard C29.11. Certiﬁed test

reports in detail are available.

SML ratings are 25k, 30k and 50k pounds.

RTL ratings are consistent with the ANSI standard. Ac-

tual factory routine tests are conducted at loads equal

to or greater than the RTL rating.

Markings for XL insulator designs are permanently

embossed into the ground end corona shielding rings.

Markings include SML and RTL, part number, assem-

bly date code, and Ohio Brass identiﬁcation.

Lengths Available

Hi*Lite suspension insulators are available in lengths

appropriate for 69 kV through 765 kV. Longer lengths

can be produced for special projects. Length incre-

ments are approximately three inches.

Product Updates

Hi*Lite XL insulator end ﬁttings are attached with

an improved crimping process using the successful

principles of earlier Hi*Lite designs. The corona shield

has been reﬁned; a more compact Corona Shielding

Ring (CSR) provides both electrical stress relief and a

mechanical seal at the housing-to-end ﬁtting interface.

Packaging

Hi*Lite suspension insulators are packaged in appropri-

ate quantities in wood crates. As an option, Ohio Brass

offers packaging of the insulators in individual sleeves.

The physical and electrical values for the insulators on pages 26-8 through 26-10 are shown without corona

protection above 161 kV. Ohio Brass has therefore provided the table below that yields the physical and electrical

changes to the insulator when rings are installed for voltages above 161 kV.

Corona Performance

Hi*Lite XL suspension insulators are RIV and corona free through 161 kV, by the use of integral Corona Shield

Rings (CSR). Due to the small diameter of the end ﬁttings, corona shielding is necessary at 230 kV and above.

The table below details the rings necessary for voltages equal to or exceeding that listed in the column header.

End Fitting Example

You need the electrical and mechanical characteristics

of Catalog #5130101001. But, a Y-clevis is needed at

the ground end instead of an eye. From the table at

the right, ﬁnd the code for the Y-clevis/ball conﬁgura-

tion 1201. You should order Catalog #5130101201.

The same process is used for 5/8" (25k) and 7/8"

Hi*Lite*® XL Insulators

Hi*Lite XL line post insulators in this publication em-

body the latest features available in polymer insulator

design and manufacture.

From the early prototypes in 1971, through full scale

introduction in 1976, and through the succeeding years,

Hi*Lite insulators have featured conservative design

and high-quality manufacture.

Today’s Hi*Lite insulators will add to the over 1,000,000

already in service worldwide.

Design

The structural design of the Hi*Lite XL consists of these

basic parts:

Rod - Hi*Lite insulator ﬁberglass rod is produced from

the highest quality materials. Strands are aligned for

maximum tensile strength. The rod is more than 50

percent glass ﬁbers in cross section.

End Fittings - End ﬁttings are aluminum or ductile

iron. They are crimped directly to the rod by a special

process originated by Ohio Brass, and later adopted

by many other producers. The crimp requires no inter-

movement of the parts to achieve high strength, nor

does it introduce potting compounds or adhesives.

Weathersheds - Weathersheds are high pressure

injection molded by Ohio Brass, from the proprietary

compound ESP™. Housings manufactured with ESP

silicone alloy rubber exhibit hydrophobicity, high me-

chanical strength, high corona resistance and low

permeability to moisture.

Interface - Hi*Lite insulators use Ohio Brass’ live sili-

cone interface. This feature prevents intrusion of mois-

ture and contaminating elements. If the exterior seal is

damaged, redundant o-ring seals within the live silicone

interface prohibit the lengthwise migration of intrusive

elements between shed and rod.

Leakage Distance

Hi*Lite XL insulators feature high leakage distance for

maximum resistance to contamination and leakage

currents.

Washability

Hi*Lite Line Post insulators listed in this catalog are

suitable for ﬂood washing up to 200 psi. The design in-

corporates positive, labyrinth seals to ensure long-term

security against water entry. Conventional dry-particle,

air-pressure cleaning methods may also be employed.

A cleaning guideline is available from Ohio Brass.

If your washing requirements exceed ﬂood washing,

contact Ohio Brass.

Mechanical Ratings

Line post insulators are basically cantilever support

members, with ratings deﬁned as follows:

Speciﬁed Cantilever Load (SCL)

SCL is the ultimate cantilever strength rating of the

Hi*Lite XL line post insulator. SCL is identical to the

minimum average breaking load (ABL) rating in previ-

ous catalogs.

Reference Cantilever Load (RCL)

RCL is the maximum recommended load in cantilever

that a Hi*Lite XL post insulator is designed to withstand

during its life, and is equal to 50% of the SCL. RCL is

identical to maximum working load (MWL) listed in pre-

vious catalogs. Line design loads applied to post insula-

tors often include tension, or compression, in addition

to the primary vertical cantilever load. In addition, some

longitudinal load is usually designed for as well.

Combined Load

Contact your Hubbell Power Systems representative for

combined load applications.

Clamptop Clamp

Jumper Clamps and Assemblies

A practical application of Hi*Lite line posts is for support

of jumper loops on transmission lines.

Horizontal motion of the jumper is restricted, and the factor

of wind sway is eliminated. Additionally the crossarm length

may be reduced. The Difference in cost of insulation is not

signiﬁcant but, the savings in tower cost can be attractive.

Regardless of cost, the use of a jumper support improves

construction.

If using a single clamp, clamp position relative to the in-

sulator may be changed by bolting the clamp through the

upper hole in the insulator end ﬁtting.

Jumper clamps are not intended for tangent span

applications.

Clamptop clamps can be mounted directly on Hi*Lite XL 250 posts if the posts are ordered with the horizontal or vertical clamptop option.

Catalog number covers complete assembly including

insulator and hardware as illustrated.

The need to minimize the tower size and visual impact of

transmission lines has prompted increased interest in braced

line posts, horizontal-V, and pivoting V assemblies. These

insulating structures offer vastly improved vertical load

capabilities over conventional lines posts while retaining the

advantages of a ﬁxed conductor position.

A braced line post uses a conventional line post with a sus-

pension string tied to the tower face with a link. A horizontal-V

replaces the link with a ﬁxed offset extending from the tower

face adding a stabilizing force to the assembly. Both these

assemblies are available with ﬂat or gain bases.

A pivoting horizontal-V assembly utilizes a line post insulator

fastened to the structure with a hinged base. Alternatively, the

base may be replaced with a universal joint.

These assemblies are available for voltages up to and includ-

ing 345 kV with a wide variety of hardware to meet the needs

of your application. The ﬁgures illustrated depict typical ar-

rangements which provide an economical means of with-

standing unusual loads. For more information on these and

numerous other variations of line post assemblies, contact

your Ohio Brass representative.

HI-LITE II POST INSULATORS

Maximum Design Cantilever Rating (MDC)

MDC is the maximum recommended load in cantilever

that a Hi*Lite post insulator is designed to withstand dur-

ing its service life.

Average Failing Load (AFL)

AFL is the average failing load of a Hi*Lite line or station

post insulator. This value can be determined by multiplying

the MDC by a factor of 2.5.

Selection

If you need a Hi*Lite post that is different from those shown

in this catalog, please contact your OB representative.

Hi*Lite station posts meet electrical and dimensional

speciﬁcations of their porcelain equivalents. Mechanically,

the Hi*Lite are less rigid with more deﬂection under both

cantilever and torsional loading.

Sample Polymer Speciﬁcation

Purpose: To ensure a suitable service life of polymer insulating materials.

I. Material Design Tests

- The following must be performed to certify a material for use in production.

1. Tracking test: Performed on a sample of material inclined at 30° and electrodes

positioned 35mm apart. Samples are sprayed with a conductive solution (400Ωcm)

and energized at 10kV. The cycle is repeated every 90 seconds. The sample passes

if there is:

1. No carbonization or tracking.

2. No erosion through sample.

3. No leakage current ﬂow at the end of 90 seconds.

The sample must withstand 15,000 test cycles.

2. Ultraviolet Test: Samples of the rubber must be tested in a QUV tester or equiva-

lent cyclic weatherometer. The samples are exposed to high ultraviolet radiation and

high humidity without cracking, checking or becoming hydrophilic.

The sample is judged to have passed this test if it exceeds 8,000 hours of exposure

without damage.

3. Corona Cutting: Samples 5 cm by 7 cm are subjected to mechanical stress of

300,000 µstrain by bending samples around a grounded electrode. A needle-like

electrode is placed 1 mm from the surface of the sample and energized at 12 kV in

a controlled humidity chamber.

The sample is judged to have passed this test if there is no splitting or cutting.

Samples must pass 1,000 hours of exposure to this test.

4. Oxidative Stability: Samples of the polymer compound are tested using differ-

ential scanning calorimetry. Samples are heated rapidly in a nitrogen atmosphere

to the test temperature of 200°C. The atmosphere is then changed to air and the

temperature is maintained until the antioxidant is consumed, as measured by an

exothermic chemical reaction. The time to this reaction must exceed 300 minutes.

5. Tear Strength: Rubber test slabs are prepared in accordance with ASTM Stan-

dards and are tested to determine tear strength of the material. The minimum ac-

ceptable tear strength is 150 lb./in.

II. Other Requirements

- The manufacturer must supply upon request a listing of routine tests performed to

ensure production compliance with design tests.
