Sedicoat — glass insulators with RTV silicone coating for heavily polluted areas
Sedicoat toughened glass insulators with a factory-applied RTV silicone coating for a mechanical load of 70–840 kN, for overhead lines up to 1000 kV AC and up to 800 kV DC. They are installed in heavily polluted areas where uncoated strings would have to be washed regularly.
- Mechanical load

Description
The hydrophobic silicone coating is applied at the factory, to the whole surface or only to the underside of the insulator. It removes periodic string washing in coastal, industrial, agricultural and desert areas and the risk of pollution flashovers. The insulators are installed without changing the overhead line design. Open, Outerib and fog profiles are available. More than 6 million units are in service in 25+ countries.

Questions and answers
Why does a glass insulator need an RTV coating?
The hydrophobic silicone layer removes the risk of pollution flashovers and the need to wash strings periodically.
What voltages and loads are Sedicoat insulators made for?
Mechanical load 70–840 kN, overhead line voltage up to 1000 kV AC and up to 800 kV DC.
Can only part of the insulator be coated?
Yes, the factory coating is applied to the whole surface or only to the underside.
