What should you do if the low pressure line is insulated and sweating outside the insulation above a suspended ceiling and dripping on the ceiling causing mildew?

What is your question here? If you want to keep the insulation from sweating get thicker insulation. You probably have 3/8 thick insulation; increase to 1/2 or 5/8. It is possible that your suction line is freezing up and when it thaws it soaks the insulation causing it to drip. If you can't prevent the leak, use a vinyl ceiling tile, like Ceilume, in that area. It won't absorb moisture and is easily cleaned.

Are wires insulated to keep them warm?
Wires are insulated to prevent electrical shock. Think of electricity in terms of water. Say you hook up a garden hose and turn the handle on the valve. If you instantaneously freeze that picture for a second, there will be high pressure at the beginning of the hose where the water is and no pressure at the end of the hose where the water would come out. Voltage is very similar to that in regards of voltage being a potential difference in electrical pressure. The insulation on the wire, similar to a garden hose with water, ensures that the electricity follows the intended path. Added: No wires are insulated to keep you and your home safe and to keep them from grounding out on anything metal and causing fires.

Does volts affect wiring size?
In general, volts affects the spacing of conductors and the level of insulation they receive. The higher the voltage, the greater the electrical 'pressure', requiring conductors to be more separated and/or insulated to prevent shorting and arcing. You should always use wires and connectors rated for your voltage or greater.
Why do pipes in a steam-heating system need to be insulated?
So the pressure wont bust the pipe.
What is acoustic insulation?
Acoustic insulation of airborne sound, also known as soundproofing are any means of reducing the pressure of sound from the sound source.
How airplane suspended in mid air?
Airplanes are NOT "suspended in mid air" - they move through the air and are supported by 'lift' derived from the differential air pressure above and below their wings.
Why does a house boiler pressure relief valve drip water constantly?
if it's dripping water constantly even when cold most likely your pressure reducing valve on the in coming water is letting in more water than it should causing the pressure to rise, if it just happens when the boiler is calling for heat it's probably your expansion tank, it could be water lodged and needs to be drained and re pressurized or replaced. make sure the pressurizer relief valve is not dripping before your boiler reaches 30 psi, that's what they are usually set for on house boilers, if it is dripping before reaching 30psi it's a faulty pressure relief valve that needs to be replaced
How much water is wasted from a dripping tap for 10 minutes?
What size tap, how much pressure, how big a drip? No way to answer without enough information.
Why should you in insulate your hot water tank?
There is insulation between the outside and inside wall of a hot water tank. There is also an insulation product that you can get to wrap around the outside of the hot water tank as well. Kit is usually available at any plumbing or hardware store. Only good for electrical HWT, as a gas tank has a flue and the insulation would be a waste on the outside of the gas tank
Is the tank for compressed nitrogen the same as a tank for liquid nitrogen?
no. Compressed nitrogen need not be insulated. Liquid nitrogen is always insulated. Typically compressed nitrogen is stored at high pressure(over 1000 psi) and liquid nitrogen is kept at less than 100 psi.
How do you know when hot water heater temp pressure relief valve is faulty?
If the water is dripping, I would replace it just to be safe. It doesn't cost much money.
