Disclosed in the present invention is a post insulator, comprising a hollow insulating tube, a shed positioned on a periphery of the hollow insulating tube, and an upper flange and a lower flange provided at two ends of the hollow insulating tube, wherein gas is sealed inside of the hollow insulating tube, and the absolute pressure of the gas is 0.1-0.15 MPa. Further disclosed is an insulated support post formed by the end-to-end connection of the post insulators. The post insulator and the insulated support post of the present invention solve an interface problem present in internal insulating solid material filling, and also solve a gas leaking problem that occurs when using high-pressure gas filling, such that the post insulator does not need to be detected and maintained. At the same time, the margin of the micro-water control range is improved, and micro-water control and production difficulty is reduced.

A dielectric material with heat transfer properties includes a first fluid and a second fluid different from the first fluid and miscible with the first fluid. The first fluid and the second fluid are mixed with each other so as to form a mixture and are kept at a temperature and a pressure so that the mixture is maintained in a supercritical phase. The mixture has at least one parameter that is preferably different from a corresponding parameter in both a supercritical phase of the first fluid and a supercritical phase of the second fluid. In a method of insulating electrical contacts and removing heat therefrom, the mixture is disposed about the electrical contacts and is maintained at a temperature and at a pressure that causes the mixture to be in a supercritical phase so that the mixture has favorable dielectric and heat transfer properties.

An electric current supply system (20) is designed to be at least partially submerged in an electrically conductive liquid during operation thereof, and having at least one electrically conductive component (21, 22, 23, 24) enveloped in liquid-tight material (40). The component (21, 22, 23, 24) has a sacrificial material that is capable of reacting electrochemically with the liquid. Further, the component (21, 22, 23, 24) has at least one gas trap portion (50) at which the sacrificial material occupies a space in the liquid-tight material (40) that is thereby defined with a gas trapping shape. If, in case of damage to the system (20) in an actual submerged state thereof, the component (21, 22, 23, 24) gets exposed to the liquid, it is achieved that an electrochemical reaction occurring at the exposed area of the component (21, 22, 23, 24) and an outflow of electric current to the liquid are stopped.
