Testing for Surge Arresters

HV and MV arresters (IEEE C62.11, IEC 6099-4)

  • Housing tests (wet, dry, impulse, AC)
  • Residual voltage at 10 kA on sections up to 150 kV MCOV
  • Salt fog
  • 4 x 10 us waves up to 80kA
  • Duty cycle and Mode of Failure testing on MV arresters (or MV-rated sections)
  • Point-on-wave surge testing
  • Cantilever Load (MDCL) tests
  • Reference Voltage
  • Impulse and AC sparkover on gapped arresters
  • Field assessment services, failure analysis, application consulting

Other testing services available... please contact us

LV arresters (NEMA LS-1, IEEE C62.45)

Combination wave OC/SC 6 kV/3 kA (1.2 x 50 us / 8 x 20 us) and 6 kV / 500 A ringwave

  • 8 x 20 us surges up to 200 kA
  • 10 x 350 us surges up to 30 kA
  • 10 x 1000 us surges up to 5 kA
  • Point on wave surges

Other waveforms are possible, including some short circuit capability
