Shemar Braced Line Post Insulators

The simplest insulator system for compact transmission line construction is a composite horizontal line post. However, line post insulators are limited in their vertical loading capabilities and thus cannot support longer spans or heavier conductor systems. Composite braced line posts are designed for applications similar to a line post but with an added suspension 'brace' insulator to significantly increase the vertical load capacity of the assembly.
