The effects of electrical degradation on the microstructure of metal oxide varistor [PDF]

open access: yes2001 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition. Developing New Perspectives (Cat. No.01CH37294), 2002
In this paper, the findings from systematic experiments with the purpose to determine the degradation effect of single and multiple current pulses on the microstructure of the Metal Oxide (MO) varistor are described. Six distribution class varistors from one manufacturer were used in these experiments.

On the Computation of the Voltage Distribution along the Non-Linear Resistor of Gapless Metal Oxide Surge Arresters

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
The voltage distribution along the non-linear resistance of metal oxide surges is of great importance for their proper operation, since the non-uniform potential distribution results in higher thermal stresses of the varistor discs near the high voltage ...

Measuring the energy handling capability of metal oxide varistors [PDF]

open access: yes16th International Conference and Exhibition on Electricity Distribution (CIRED 2001), 2001
Metal oxide varistors are widely used in many power electronics circuits to protect against transient overvoltages. Certain applications are very demanding on the energy handling capability of the varistors. This paper gives an overview of the failure modes of ZnO varistors and investigates their characteristics when subjected to repetitive current ...
