What is the difference between bushing and insulators.?
what is the creepage distance?

Answer Posted / avd

Bushing : It has two parts 1. A hollow insulator may be
filled with oil or air depending on type 2. A conducting
stud or bus bar. Bushing is used to take out/in the power
from a machine without touching the ground parts.
Insulator : It is solid insulated material to isolate one
end (Live) to other end (Ground).
Creepage distance : Just imagine you have one insulator. An
ant starts from one end of insulator to the other end of
insulator. It has to travell on surface of petticoats also.
Distance travelled by ant is the creepage distance.

Hope this will clear your query.
