An overhead power line insulator is provided including a device for detecting and measuring a leakage current and for transmitting data, the device being arranged in such a manner as to perform: measuring a leakage current of an insulator during a first measurement period and during a second measurement period in a measurement circuit; comparing two values of the current that are obtained during respective ones of the two measurement periods; and stopping the measurement circuit for a certain sleep period of time if the second value of the current is less than or equal to the first value of the current, and then starting the measurement circuit again after the certain sleep period of time.
An overhead power line insulator comprises a dielectric element (4) having an outside surface forming a skirt (5) with a head extended by a metal attachment fitting (7) for attaching the insulator, and a device for detecting surface leakage current flowing on the dielectric (4), the device comprising a conductive ring (8) that surrounds the fitting (7) and that is in contact with the outside surface of the dielectric (4). An electrically insulating protective element (10) is provided in the form of a collared bushing that surrounds the fitting (7), being interposed between the ring (8) and the fitting (7) and extending radially so as to overlie the ring (8) in order to protect it from environmental pollution.
