SURGE ARRESTER FEATURES

 

SURGE ARRESTER (SPD) FEATURES

Surge arresters are protection products divided into three categories: high voltage, medium voltage, and low voltage (154KV, 34.5KV, and 220V), which conduct the current pulse generated during lightning strikes to the ground.

Low-voltage surge arresters are also divided into three classes: Class B, Class C, and Class D.

Class B surge arresters: These are protection products installed at the main electrical entrance of a building, with a discharge capacity of 25KA phase-to-ground and 50KA neutral-to-ground at 1.5KV, totaling a 125KA discharge capacity.

Class C surge arresters: These are protection products used at apartment/unit entrances inside a building, with a discharge capacity of 10-20KA phase-to-ground and a total of 40KA at 1.5KV.

Class D surge arresters: These are protection products used specifically for the equipment intended to be protected, with a discharge capacity of 6KA phase-to-ground and a total of 20KA at 1.5KV.

Surge arrester tests are conducted according to the EN61643-11 standard. According to this standard, at the end of 10/350ms and 8/20µs lightning pulses applied to the arrester, it is checked whether the device remains intact.

NEW GENERATION SURGE ARRESTERS

New generation surge arresters are products that provide the power and sensitivity of B, C, and D classes in a single unit, while also possessing the capability to protect the equipment in the system against overvoltage. In protection tests, new generation surge arresters can receive compliance not just by checking if the arrester itself is intact, but by testing whether the connected loads in the system are protected as well.

Another vital feature of new generation surge arresters is their ability to perform their protection function even in cases where grounding is weak or non-existent.

In addition to the features mentioned above, new generation domestic surge arresters, which incorporate many more extra features, are presented to you under the Trimbox brand with a domestic production rate of 87.64%.

Simple precautions sometimes save lives. The best investment we can make for our family, our business, and our environment is protective measures. With Trimbox and GNDSeries, you can be protected from electricity-related damages and electrical contact fires caused by them.
