what is most commonly caused bt current flowing through high resistance due to faulty wiring igniting insulation and other materials
Electrical fires
burn
The most common insulation material for HV use remains porcelain. Synthetic materials are fast replacing porcelain as the insulation material of choice.
blown in insulation. Some of this insulation, you may have to request it. It is recycled from newspapers and other thing. It insulates better and you are being green at the same time.
The resistance of a material depends on:-The material itself.Length of the conductor.Area of cross section of the conductor.Temperature.
Ohm's Law
resistance
An R-value is a unit of thermal resistance for a particular material or assembly of materials (such as an insulation panel). The R-value depends on a solid material's resistance to conductive heat transfer.
INSULATION RESISTANCE: The insulation resistance is a measure of the capability of a material to withstand leakage of current under a Vdc potential gradient. DIELECTRIC STRENGTH: The dielectric strength is a measure of the ability of the material to withstand a large field strength without electrical breakdown, and is usually expressed in volts per mil (.001') or volts per cm of dielectric.
LRB (Light resin Bonded) Epoxy is used for insulation purposes. It is sponge-like material. It is usable typically up to 400degC. Commonly, it is also called 'mineral wool'.
Insulation is directly proportional to resistance. More resistance means more insulation. And if a material is denser (i.e. the particles are situated closer to each other), then the resistance is more. Hence, more density-->more resistance-->better insulation And since different materials have different density, hence they also have different insulations. hope it helps.. :)
Values of insulation resistance vary according to the type of insulators and the size of the conducting material inside the insulators, for instance insulation resistance of wires or cables are determined according to type of insulation PVC-PE-XLPE-..... etc and the size of the conductor, and the standard which the wires or cables are designed upon. For example BS 5308 standard states that cables of conductors 0.5, 1, and 1.5 with PVC insulation should have a minimum insulation resistance of 25 Mohm.km . but cables with PE insulation should have a minimum insulation resistance of 5 Gohm.km ...... Now you may realize the difference in IR values. I hope I manage to make it clear image for the answer.
it is a good thing i think R Value is the thermal resistance of a given material. The higher the R Value the more thermal resistance and the better the insulation. So, an R48 roof system is warmer than an R32 roof system. All insulation materials are rated by their R Value. An inch of rigid insulation has a higher R Value than an inch of fiberglass insulation. Check with the insulation manufacturer for the R Value.
Neural Insulation is Brain Material.:))There is your answer.
Insulation is rated in terms of thermal resistance, called R-value, which indicates the resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating effectiveness. The R-value of thermal insulation depends on the type of material, its thickness, and its density. In calculating the R-value of a multi-layered installation, the R-values of the individual layers are added.
The different criteria for achieving fire resistance in a building include preventing smoke leakage, providing insulation, increasing load bearing capacity for your construction material, and much more.
NO. Insulation material is not exempt from income tax.
