Discover TE Connectivity’s wildlife and asset protection solutions that safeguard animals and infrastructure, reducing outages and creating a safer, more sustainable energy network.
Creepage Extenders & Contamination Shields
Protective components that block contamination buildup and extend creepage distance to maintain insulation performance in overhead and substation installations.
Pollution, salt, ice, and dust accumulation can compromise insulation performance and increase the risk of tracking and flashover. Creepage extenders and contamination shields help stabilize insulation behavior, improving system reliability and reducing unplanned outages in harsh, coastal, or cold environments. By reducing contamination-induced discharge paths, they also support wildfire prevention in high-risk areas.
See how TE’s advanced designs prevent wildlife contact, extend equipment life, and ensure reliable energy delivery while protecting nature and critical assets.
