Environmental Factors Of Insulating Contact Box

Environmental factors have an important impact on the performance of Insulation Contact Box, mainly including temperature, humidity, ultraviolet radiation, etc.

Temperature: Too high or too low temperature will affect the performance of insulating materials. High temperature will accelerate the aging of materials, while low temperature may cause the materials to become brittle and lose elasticity.

Humidity: A humid environment will cause the insulating material to absorb moisture, resulting in a decrease in its insulation resistance and even leakage or short circuit. Especially in high-voltage equipment, the presence of moisture will significantly reduce the withstand voltage of the insulating contact box.

Ultraviolet radiation: Insulating materials (such as plastics and rubber) exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long time will undergo photodegradation, causing cracks and discoloration on the surface of the material and loss of insulation performance.
