Evaluation of surge arrester models for overvoltage studies
2014 ICHVE International Conference on High Voltage Engineering and Application, 2014This work aims to determine a model which represents efficiently real surge arresters behaviour, when submitted to fast surge current impulses and lightning current impulses. It presented a comparative study among nine arrester models. The experimental data of a zinc-oxide (ZnO) block with rated voltage of 4 kV was used in comparisons.

Switching Surge Duty on Modern Arresters
IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems, 1971This paper presents the results of an Anacom study which investigated the performance of modern lightning arresters during switching surge operation. A description of the variable characteristic arrester model used to simulate the lightning arrester is presented as are the results of the study using the model on a representative 345-kV system ...

Long-duration surge testing of lightning arresters
Electrical Engineering, 1951A METHOD OF long-duration surge-withstand design testing of station-type lightning arresters is proposed for consideration by the industry. The test method involves successive applications of a surge having an essentially constant magnitude and a duration measured in thousands of microseconds.

A simplified model for zinc oxide surge arresters
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 1999A model for metal-oxide surge arresters, derived from that one recommended from the IEEE W.G. 3.4.11, is presented. The main innovation introduced by the paper lies in the simplicity of the criteria proposed for the model's parameter identification. Such criteria allow calculation of the model parameters directly from the standard data reported in the ...

Maintenance of surge arrester by a portable arrester leakage current detector
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 1988An instrument is described that detects leakage current without disconnecting the arrester ground wire. Better means were developed for detecting deterioration of a surge arrester than the existing appearance inspection, insulation resistance measurement, and leakage current measurement.

A brief history of AC surge arresters
IEEE Power Engineering Review, 1991Since the beginning of AC transmission, approximately 100 years ago, lightning protection of transmission equipment has been provided by gaps and by nonlinear resistors, alone or in various combinations. Protection during the early part of the period (1892-1908) was provided by simple air gaps from line to ground.

Radioactive reliability of gas filled surge arresters
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2003The goal of this paper is to determine use of gas filled surge arresters (GFSA) with a built-in radioactive sources in radiative environment. Furthermore, a pseudoempiric method has been developed to determine the GFSA pulse shape characteristics. These results are considered relevant for the use of this component in both military applications and ...

Thermal Stability and Life of the Gapless Surge Arrester
IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems, 1981The life of the gapless arrester using the ZnO element is examined experimentally. The mode of degradation due to ac voltage application differs according to the composition of ZnO valve element. The watt loss is not always a linear function with time.
