C4-80 II 10kV Porcelain Post Insulator GOST

Post Insulators

Product Overview

A GOST-pattern solid-core post insulator for 10 kV switchgear, used to support the live parts of disconnectors and circuit breakers inside distribution assemblies. Test voltage is 80 kV against a 10 kV rating, minimum breaking force is 4 kN, and a unit weighs 2.75 kg. The ceramic body is group 120 electrotechnical porcelain to GOST 20419-83, with AK12 aluminium alloy or nodular iron fittings.

  • GOST
Key benefits

Why Buyers Choose This Part

  • Built to the GOST material specifications Russian and CIS buyers ask for by clause
  • 80 kV test voltage against a 10 kV rating leaves clear dielectric margin
  • 4 kN cantilever strength with 100 N.m torsion strength for switch operating loads
  • Silicone sealant on the cement joints keeps water out of the armature seam
Application scenarios

Where It Is Used

  • 10 kV disconnectors and circuit breakers in distribution switchgear
  • Indoor switchgear assemblies built to GOST and UKhL1 climatic classes
  • Replacement of aged C4-80 II units during switchgear refurbishment
  • Switchgear manufacturers exporting to CIS markets
Who it is for

Who It Suits

  • Switchgear manufacturers building to GOST specifications
  • Utilities in Russia and CIS countries maintaining 10 kV assemblies
  • Distributors supplying GOST-pattern electrical porcelain
Problems it solves

What Goes Wrong Without The Right Part

  • Finding a supplier that will hold the GOST material clauses, not just the dimensions
  • Post insulators that loosen at the cement joint after a few switching seasons
  • Torsion failures when the insulator is used as the operating shaft support
  • Long procurement lead times on discontinued GOST part numbers

Comparison

How It Compares

IEC pattern post insulatorSame job, different dimensional and material standard. Specify the C4-80 II when the switchgear drawing calls out GOST clauses.
Cast resin post insulatorPorcelain keeps its surface in UV and does not creep under sustained cantilever load, which matters where the insulator carries an operating shaft.
Use guide

Before You Order And After It Arrives

  • Confirm the fitting material, aluminium alloy or nodular iron, before ordering
  • Do not exceed 4 kN cantilever or 100 N.m torsion in service
  • Keep the cement joints dry in storage so the sealant is not disturbed
  • Check the glaze for chips before fitting, a chipped shed shortens the creepage
Questions
