Water decreases the overall thermal performance of the insulation, also water may just short circuit around the insulation and render it useless.
Water, if present on dielectric surface, due its high conductivity decreases the surface resistivity of the dielectric, thus causes high creepage current (surface current).

Refractory insulation is defined as insulation for extremely high temperatures. The threshold of temperature of insulation for refractory insulation is > 815 Celsius.
zero insulation leakage is known as a ground fault AC, DC, single phase, 3 phase .... same answer on a damp day or with water present it may be a bit higher than zero there is no perfect insulation if you have more than a milliamp you have problems
The person that invented insulation was John Player. This was the standard type of insulation, and it was invented by him in 1893.
Insulation resistance test: This test is used to find the insulation resistance of motor for 1 min or 10 min through high voltage insulation tester. By this we can find the insulation level. Polarization index: This is the ratio between insulation resistance for 10 min to insulation resistance for 1 min.
Heat is insulation's big enemy.
Anti sweat insulation means to prevent condensation of atmospheric water vapour on the surface of pipe is called anti sweat insulation.
Closed-cell foam insulation is suitable for areas that may be exposed to moisture or water.
Water Friend or Enemy - 1943 was released on: USA: 6 April 1943
The thickness of insulation affects the rate at which hot water cools down by providing a barrier that prevents heat from escaping quickly. Thicker insulation reduces heat transfer, so hot water will cool down more slowly compared to thinner insulation. By controlling variables such as the initial temperature of the hot water and the ambient temperature of the surroundings, one can isolate the effect of insulation thickness on cooling rate.
Some fiberglass and Styrofoam.
Wet thermal insulation.
No, they are metal with an insulation coating
Yes , a major problem with fiberglass
water :)
Human.
use insulation to keep the water hot for 40 minutes
