MV/HV Surge Arresters

Property Specification

Type: Medium to High-Voltage Surge Arrester (Overvoltage Protective Device)

Features: Designed to safeguard parallel-connected power assets, this protective device caps system voltage spikes by safely diverting transient surge currents to ground and immediately interrupting power-frequency follow current., it operates across a 3 kV to 66 kV voltage rating with a steep current impulse capability of 9.5 A to 230 A. It offers reliable overvoltage mitigation against atmospheric lightning strikes, network switching transients, and temporary system overvoltages.
