Disc insulator is called suspension insulator, is an assembly of one or more shells with metallic fittings, They are nonrigid supporting type because of their material of ceramic.
Disc insulator b&s type in one type of disc suspension insulator.

Disc insulator b&s type form the insulator string by fitting into themselves one another as per voltage requirement. A ceramic suspension insulator set complete with the fittings is used to carry a line conductor or conductors at its lower end. The top of the ceramic suspension insulator is fixed to the cross arm of the tower.
