Detecting1 power line insulator automatically has important practical significance for the stable and reliable operation of the entire power system. In this paper, Single Shot Multibox Detector is applied to target detection of power line insulator images. Due to the particularity of the insulator shape, the aspect ratios of the default box do not match the insulator. According to the statistical result of the dataset, an adaptively select method of the default box aspect ratios is proposed. Experimental results show that the use of improved Single Shot Multibox Detector algorithm to identify and locate the insulator can reach to 87.5% and the detection time is 84ms per image only.
