Market Analysis and Insights: North America Hollow Core Insulator Market
An insulator is a material used to keep sound or heat contained or something that does not conduct electricity. Hollow-core insulators are insulating substances for various high voltage applications and electrical power transmission lines. Hollow-core insulators, alternatives for glass and porcelain insulators, provide high quality, reliable and strong performance in high voltages up to 1100 kV AC and 1100 kV DC. Compared to glass and porcelain insulators, hollow core insulators offer other significant benefits due to their lighter weight, better contamination performance, seismic resistance, and increased protection while in a catastrophic failure. Hollow-core insulators offer dimensional consistency, which permits for enhancements in dielectric optimization and higher overall performance of diverse seal systems. The demand for hollow core insulators has increased in the wake of protecting transformers and power transmission lines due to the hydrophobicity of its sheds which therefore provide improved performance under challenging environmental and polluted conditions.
An increase in growth in transmission and distribution networks across the region is expected to act as the major driving factor in the market. The higher cost associated with the purchase of hollow-core insulation is acting as a restraint to the market growth. Also, the challenges faced due to the impact of COVID-19 on the supply chain of raw materials are few other restraining factors.
However, up-gradation and expansion of the electricity and power generation sector are opportunities for the market's growth. Lack of infrastructure for database management systems in the power sector could prove to be a challenge

Hollow Core Insulator Market Scope and Market Size
North America hollow core insulator market is segmented into five notable segments, which are based on the voltage rating, shed material type, shed design, product type, and application. The growth among segments helps you analyze niche pockets of growth and strategies to approach the market and determine your core application areas and the difference in your target markets.
- On the basis of voltage rating, the hollow core insulator market is segmented into below 300 kV, 300-600kV, and above 600kV. In 2021, below 300 kV is expected to hold the highest segment owing to the increasing usage in multi-circuit transmission technology and the rise in the application of triple and quadruple circuit lines.
- On the basis of shed material type, the hollow core insulator market is segmented into high temperature vulcanizing (HTV) silicone rubber and liquid silicon rubber. In 2021, high temperature vulcanizing (HTV) silicone rubber is expected to hold the highest segment owing to its better antipollution flashover capacity.
- On the basis of shed design, the hollow core insulator market is segmented into single rib shed, double rib shed, plain shed, alternating shed, and super deep rib shed. In 2021, plain shed safe is expected to hold the largest market share due to the stable distribution of electricity generated at power plants. Moreover, the inorganic bonding used in large plain shed hollow insulators ensures remarkable long-term reliability.
- On the basis of product type, the hollow core insulator market is segmented into ceramic and composite. In 2021, the ceramic insulator is expected to hold the largest market share as they are generally used owing to their high dielectric strength, low electrical loss, and high dielectric constant.
- On the basis of application, the hollow core insulator market is segmented into a circuit breaker, instrument transformer, bushing, cable termination, surge arrester, station post, and switching gear. In 2021, the instrument transformer is expected to hold the highest segment as it provides electrical isolation between high voltage power circuits and measuring instruments. This reduces the electrical insulation requirement for measuring instruments and protective circuits and assures operators' safety.
