Brief Introduction of Surge Arresters

May 01 , 2023

Definition of Surge Arresters

Arrester: An appliance used to protect electrical equipment from high transient overvoltage during lightning strikes and to limit the duration and often amplitude of the current. Arrester is sometimes called an overvoltage protector, or overvoltage limiter.

Foreign name: Arrester

Features: High transient, over-voltage, electrical, and lightning protection

Through the function of parallel discharge gap or nonlinear resistance, the arrester can cut the amplitude of the intrusion flow wave and reduce the overvoltage value of the protected equipment, so as to protect the communication line and equipment.

The arrester is connected between the cable and the ground, usually in parallel with the device to be protected. The arrester can effectively protect the communication equipment. Once the abnormal voltage occurs, the arrester will act to protect the equipment.

When the communication cable or equipment is operating at the normal operating voltage, the arrester will not have an effect, to the ground as a circuit breaker. When a high voltage occurs and endangers the insulation of protected devices, the arrester acts immediately to direct the high voltage impulse current to the ground, limiting the voltage amplitude and protecting the insulation of communication cables and devices. When the overvoltage disappears, the arrester quickly restores to its original state, so that the communication line can work normally.


Application Range of Surge Arresters

Ac non-clearance metal oxide arrester is used to protect the insulation of AC power transmission and transformation equipment from lightning overvoltage and operating overvoltage damage. Applicable to the transformer, transmission line, distribution panel, switchgear, power metering box, vacuum switch, shunt compensation capacitor, rotary motor and semiconductor devices and other overvoltage protection.


Characteristics and Principles of Arrester

Ac non-clearance metal oxide arrester has excellent nonlinear volt-safety characteristics, good response characteristics, no continuous current, large flow capacity, residual low pressure, strong overvoltage inhibition ability, pollution resistance, ageing resistance, not restricted by altitude, simple structure, no clearance, tight sealing, long life and so on.
