Transmission line insulators will reduce the insulation level and become low-value insulators because of lightning flashover. Toughened glass insulators are used in 500kV Tongfeng 1 and 2 lines in Tonghua area. Most umbrella skirts will break and fall off after lightning flashover, which greatly reduces the insulation performance. It needs to be replaced in time, but frequent blackouts will bring great losses and reduce the reliability of power supply. Aiming at the frequent lightning hazards and lightning strikes on transmission lines in Tonghua area, a tool assembly for live replacement of insulators for transmission lines is developed. Through the application of this tool, the live operation mode is adopted to eliminate such defects. The operation time can be arranged and implemented in a very timely manner, which avoids the threat of long-term defects, effectively reduces the outage time of equipment, enhances the stability of power grid, and greatly improves the reliability of power supply of lines. Finally, taking the live line insulator suspension tool as an example, the economic benefit analysis is given, and the feasibility and correctness of the tool are verified..
