Study on the Unipolar Impulse Aging Characteristics of ZnO Varistors and Their Condition Monitoring Methods

Applied Sciences
Metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) are critical devices for overvoltage protection in power systems, and the aging characteristics of their zinc oxide (ZnO) varistors under impulse and power-frequency voltages exhibit significant differences.

The behaviour and performance of metal oxide varistor under the application of multiple lightning impulses [PDF]

, 2005
The behaviour and performance of lightning protective devices such as the metal oxide varistor (MOV) under the application of multiple lightning impulse are different from that of the standard single stroke test.

Determining the effect of bismuth oxide on the microstructure and electrical response of cold‐sintered ZnO varistors

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Microstructure homogeneity and grain size reduction are needed to ensure the current uniformity and reliability required in metal oxide varistors for DC circuit breakers. Cold sintering (CS)–a low‐temperature digestive liquid and high‐pressure densification process–has previously shown reduced grain growth, but it is not clear how the lower ...

Analysis of the failure mechanism of ZnO varistors influenced by high‐resistance media based on multi‐field coupling simulation

High Voltage, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 673-679, June 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on the distribution of high‐resistance media (pores and spinels) within ZnO $\text{ZnO}$ varistors and explores the mechanical and electrical failure mechanisms of varistors under different pulse actions. Micro‐CT technology revealed that the proportion of high‐resistance media in the edge area is much higher than in the ...

Control strategy of novel hybrid commutated converter based on reverse blocking integrated gate commutated thyristor for commutation failure mitigation

High Voltage, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 546-554, June 2025.
Abstract Commutation failure (CF) is an inherent problem faced by line commutated converter high voltage direct current (LCC‐HVDC) technology. To completely solve the problem of CF, we have proposed a novel hybrid commutated converter (HCC) technology based on reverse blocking integrated gate commutated thyristor, which can utilise two methods for ...
