Scope:

1.1 This Standard applies to wet-process porcelain and toughened glass suspension-type insulators used on ac overhead power lines with a nominal voltage greater than 1000 V and a frequency not greater than 100 Hz. This Standard applies to single insulator units only and does not apply to long rod insulators.

1.2 This Standard specifies provisions for (a) the mechanical, electrical, and dimensional characteristics of insulators and the conditions under which the specified values of these characteristics are verified; and (b) test methods and acceptance criteria.
