why the electrical insulators suspention breakdowen
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Due to flash over caused by lightning and rarely due to
mechanical failure

The suspension type insulator which hanges from the tower
to carry the LINE at the other end has a potential gradient
of its own. since the tower is the earth terminal, the
insulator acts as a capacitance between the line and the
earth. this also has a threshold value. so during fault
condition when high currents flow through the transmission
line the potential gradient in the insulator reaches a
saturated value and eventually breaksdown.
then the flashover between line and the tower will occur.
