Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the purpose of a transmission line's insulator?
  • Step 1: Understand that a transmission line carries electricity over long distances.
  • Step 2: Know that the conductor is the wire that carries the electrical current.
  • Step 3: Learn that an insulator is a material that does not conduct electricity.
  • Step 4: Realize that insulators are used to hold up the conductor so it stays in the air.
  • Step 5: Understand that insulators prevent the electrical current from escaping to the ground.
  • Step 6: Conclude that the main purpose of an insulator is to keep the electricity flowing safely through the conductor.
