Energy of A Professional
On 26 August 2017, Alexander Slavinsky, Eng.D, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Izolyator is going to celebrate his 55th Anniversary.
Alexander Slavinsky was born on 26 August 1962 in Moscow in the family of public servants. Finishing high school in 1979, he went to work at the Era plant, where he made career from laboratory technician to head of department. In 1985, while working full-time at the plant, he graduated from the Moscow Institute of Electronics, part-time department of the physicotechnical faculty, with engineer-physicist qualification. In 1992, he was hired as Chief of External Cooperation Bureau, and, already in 1995, at the shareholder meeting he was appointed General Director of the Moscow plant Izolyator CJSC — one of the leading companies of the industry specialized in development and manufacture of lead-through insulators — high-voltage bushings. In 1998, Alexander Slavinsky was conferred a PhD degree and in 1999 — he defended his doctorate degree in technical sciences.
With the appointment of the new director at Mosizolyator, the plant’s production was reconstructed, a lot of changes were made to expand the product range significantly, and the R&D team received a much greater authority and initiative in creation of new items of insulating equipment.
Thus, in 2002–2005, under the leadership and with Alexander Slavinsky’s direct involvement, the plant created a unique proprietary technology of industrial production of solid RIP insulation, with the use of which it developed 110–220 kV bushings and commenced their mass production.
By the mid-2000s, it was clear that in order to increase output of the plant including older and new products, larger facility and modern technological base were required. Under Alexander Slavinsky’s lead, the company realized a large-scale greenfield project of construction of a highly technological last generation production, over 20 thnd sq m, for modern high-voltage equipment production. In 2007, Izolyator plant was launched in Pavlova Sloboda of Moscow region. Alexander Slavinsky is at the head now in the function of the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Izolyator company.
Following the principles of innovative development, among other tasks, Alexander Slavinsky initiates and manages activities of gradual transition of high-voltage bushings range to the solid RIP insulation (today, AC bushings of up to 800 kV inclusive are offered), works on creation of DC bushings (up to ±800 kV) and development and implementation of brand new insulation types.
Alexander Slavinsky’s involvement in activities of industry organization is an important part of his professional life. He is Vice President AES RF, Vice President of International TRAVEK Association, Russia’s Representative in IEC (Regular committee 36A), Russia’s Representative in CIGRE SC D1, Chair of Study Committee D1 at RNC CIGRE.

In 2017, Alexader Slavinsky was awarded a Badge of Honor of Merit for Moscow regions, third class, for his input in development of the industrial complex of Moscow region.
