Insulated shoes are safety shoes made of insulating materials, mainly suitable for workers exposed to high voltage environments. Insulation refers to the use of insulating materials to seal charged bodies, thereby isolating charged bodies or conductors with different potentials, allowing current to flow in a certain way. Good insulation is a necessary condition for ensuring the normal operation of equipment and circuits, as well as an important measure to prevent electric shock accidents.

Insulation usually serves other purposes: heat dissipation and cooling, mechanical support and fixation, energy storage, arc extinguishing, moisture resistance, mold resistance, and conductor protection. In daily work, workshops and laboratories in the microelectronics industry, such as electronic computers, electronic communication equipment, integrated circuits, etc., are often prone to generating more static electricity. The energy of static electricity is not large, but its voltage may reach tens of kilovolts or higher, which can lead to the danger of discharge, sparks, and explosions.

Meanwhile, the physical phenomenon of static electricity can hinder production, resulting in poor product quality and damage to electronic devices. In addition to static electricity, many workers in cables and power plants often come into contact with high voltage electricity. Wearing insulated shoes is irreplaceable for the safety protection of these workers. There are some precautions when using conductive labor protection shoes and insulated shoes. Insulated shoes should be placed in a ventilated and cool place as much as possible after use to prevent the shoes from getting damp and deforming.

At the same time, attention should be paid to the maintenance of insulated shoes, and water should be avoided during cleaning. On the contrary, the dust on the surface of leather shoes should be wiped off with a clean cloth, and then shoe polish should be applied. Through these steps, the service life of insulated shoes can be extended as much as possible, and the service quality of insulated shoes can be ensured, maximizing their safety efficiency.
