How much do you know about the cold knowledge of insulating boots?

Insulation boots are indispensable safety tools for electric power, electrical, mining and other industries. Whether it is line maintenance, high-voltage equipment maintenance, or the installation of large warning signs, the protection of insulating boots is indispensable. Without the protection of insulating boots, in case of an accident during the work of the construction workers, the current will break down their bodies in an instant.

It is no exaggeration to say that insulating boots are the savior of electricity and electrical workers. But how to choose insulating boots?

So, how do users choose suppliers and insulating boots when they don't know much about materials and technology? The staff of Shanghai Chengge gave some suggestions, hoping to help those electric power workers who are new to the workplace.

1. Look at qualifications and consumer reputation

Insulation boots are a kind of safety tools, and their significance is beyond doubt. On August 1, 2021, the new national standard for insulating boots GB21148-2020 "Foot Protection Safety Shoes" was officially implemented. This also means that the country has put forward higher requirements for manufacturers. So what kind of manufacturer can be regarded as a conscientious enterprise?

This starts with the qualification of the manufacturer. First of all, consumers should check whether the other party has various qualifications for the production of safety tools, such as labor safety certification, production licenses, etc., before purchasing insulating boots. Like Shanghai Chengge, they generally accept the supervision and attention of relevant departments and all walks of life, so they will strictly control the quality and live up to the reputation accumulated by their production and operation for more than ten years.

The second is to see whether the manufacturer has a good consumer reputation in the industry. Only in this way, the products such as insulating boots purchased by consumers will not be disturbed.

2. Look at the certificate

Obviously, the certificate of conformity is a kind of proof material that the product is qualified and compliant. However, many users generally ignore this detail when ordering. So how do you look at the certificate? First, we need to check whether there are permanent insulation marks on the shoes; next, we also need to check whether there are certificates of conformity, production license numbers, etc. in the shoes.

3. Look at the test report

Many users do not specifically look at the test report when purchasing insulating boots because they feel that the test report is untrue. In fact, the inspection of pressure-resistant safety tools and appliances such as insulating boots must be sent to professional institutions designated by the State Grid for inspection. Only products that have passed the inspection strictly will they provide relevant inspection reports.

So, is it simple? Even if you don't understand the material and technology, you can filter out satisfactory insulating boots only by mastering these three points.
