Zusammenfassung
Porcelain insulators are among the major materials used in the electricity industry. The annual growth of electricity demand in Uganda is estimated to be at 7-9% [1]. This correspondingly applies to the insulation material consumption. The production of porcelain insulators using local materials has the benefits of saving the country of foreign exchange, earning the country foreign exchange through exports,employment creation for the local people, technology transfer,expansion of the tax base and utilization of the national raw material reserves. This research therefore seeks to establ...
