Which is Most common insulation at high voltage?
The most common insulation material for HV use remains porcelain. Synthetic materials are fast replacing porcelain as the insulation material of choice.
Why is insulation used in walls of buildings?
To keep heat in - and cold out. Many buildings are poorly insulated ( the 'standard' house-brick is the main culprit. This lets heat escape through the walls (and roofs) of buildings. Insulation traps the heat inside.

What material would be safest to use as an insulator to use to cover electrical wires?
When selecting a material for an insulation factor it has to be balanced between flexibility and its insulation properties. Glass would be an excellent insulator but in the electrical field hard to pull through conduit and bending without damaging the insulation. Cross-linked polyethylene fits both the conditions for a wire insulation. The insulation has a high insulation factor plus the ability to bend without damaging the insulation and can operate in a 90 degree C temperature range.
Is insulation tax exempt?
NO. Insulation material is not exempt from income tax.
