A third rail insulator having a head assembly with a channel, and a pedestal assembly. The head assembly and the pedestal assembly are integrated as a single structure to support and isolate a contact rail assembly that supplies power to a transit vehicle. The channel is an open channel that diametrically extends along the upper section of the head assembly. The channel receives the contact rail assembly.
