The research of the automatic washing-brushing robot of 500 kV DC insulator string

This paper illustrates the research and exploitation of a kind of live line washing-brushing robot which is used to clean the polluted insulators of a 500 kV DC transmission line automatically. It explains the design principle and characteristics of the robot. It analyzes the working property and safety property by the washing test on 500 kV DC insulator strings which are each polluted to a different extent.<
