ZnO / Metal-oxide arrester

ZnO / Metal-oxide arrester protects distribution line,transformer,cable connector and electric equipment from being damaged by lightning impulse voltage and operated over-voltage.
Overview

Metal oxide surge arrester

Metal Oxide Surge Arrester Range for Distribution Protection

FUERTE’s supplier-published ZnO arrester table covers 3–36 kV rated-voltage models with 5 kA and 10 kA nominal discharge-current options and 2.55–29 kV MCOV values.

Rated voltage
3–36 kV
Nominal discharge current
5 / 10 kA
MCOV
2.55–29 kV
Published standard
IEC60099-4 / IEEE C62.11

The supplier page lists IEC60099-4 and IEEE C62.11 as the technical standards; confirm the required edition and project acceptance documents before ordering.

Confirm the selected rating against the system voltage, earthing arrangement, insulation coordination, installation altitude and pollution conditions.

Selection checklist

Prepare the Surge Arrester RFQ

  1. State the system and arrester voltage. Include the nominal system voltage, arrester rated voltage and MCOV.
  2. Confirm discharge duty. Specify nominal discharge current, required residual-voltage limits and the project duty cycle.
  3. Define installation conditions. Include altitude, pollution level, maximum ambient temperature and mounting position.
  4. Select hardware and accessories. Confirm brackets, line clamps, earth leads, disconnectors, bird guards, counters or monitors.
  5. List document requirements. State the applicable standard edition, drawings, test evidence and acceptance documents required by the project.

Configuration and supply boundary

Review the ZnO Arrester Configuration

The source describes Grade 304 stainless steel terminal hardware and optional NEMA A or B mounting brackets, earth leads, line clamps, bird guards, disconnectors, discharge counters and monitors.

Electrical coordination

Confirm rated voltage, MCOV, nominal discharge current and residual-voltage limits against the project study.

Mounting hardware

State bracket pattern, terminal connection, line clamp and earth-lead requirements in the inquiry.

Failure indication

Confirm whether the supply should include a disconnector, insulating base, counter or monitor.

Commercial boundary

Quantity, packing, delivery schedule, test documents and destination requirements depend on quotation.
