This paper presents some of the results of current research on 400kN Suspension Insulator Design. In this paper, authors carried out 2-dimensional field calculation in order to analyse dielectric characteristics of the insulator unit and 3-dimensional field calculation in order to analyse dielectric characteristics of the insulator strings. And the results of puncture tests of insulators were compared with the required field intensity of the insulator As results, it was found that electric field on the insulator unit is severest between two triple junctions, dielectric characteristics of insulator strings are much influenced by the surrounding configuration and the manufactured insulators have good results of puncture tests.
