What is a piping insulation means?

Insulation means that piping has an outer coating to control the internal temperature. This ensures that the contents are maintain their temperature throughout their journey.


What is the best known insulator of electricity?

The most common electrical insulator is the plastic coating on electrical wires. Hope this helps!


When are megger testers used?

On the whole megger testing is a non destructive test. What happens is a DC voltage is applied to the device or winding under test. It is an insulation test to see is the insulation has been injured in any way to cause a short circuit when normal power is applied to it. On my megger there are 3 ranges 300V, 750V, and 1000 volts. Applying the proper voltage is essential to not damaging the device you are testing. Working voltages up to 240 volts should use the 300 range. Working voltages up to 600 volts use the 750 volt range and working voltages above 600 use the 1000 volt range. As you can see if you used the 1000 volt range on a device that had a working voltage of say 24 volts you could damage the insulation just by testing it. So meggering a device is non destructive if you use the tester as its instructions tell you to.


Is plastic used to cover electrical wires?

so it could prevent shocking you .They use that because if u get shocked the electric can travel through your body and it could harm u if u get shocked a lot. Also if u get shocked and you can hurt other people and shock them to so that is why they use plastic coating on the electric cords.

What is a poor conductor of electricity and is used to coat wires?

In low voltage wires, the insulation factor of the coating determines the wire's voltage rating. A wire coating of cross linked poly vinyl is used as an insulation. High voltage transmission wires uses no coating on the wire


Is it OK to use oil paint over latex paint when applying concrete striping paint?

You can not put oil paint over latex paint. Oil is a rigid coating and latex is a flexible coating. When you put a rigid coating over something that is flexible the rigid coating cracks off.
