Surge arrestersfor medium voltage systems

ABB Switzerland Ltd. produces high-grade metal-oxide surge arresters for use in distribution networksfor the protection of overhead lines, cables, stations,transformers, generators, capacitors, etc.The surgearresters limit harmful overvoltages, which aregenerated in the network by lightning strikes orswitching actions. The availability of the power supplyis further increased by reducing outages.

The metal-oxide surge arresters produced by ABBSwitzerland Ltd. for DC traction systems are developedand tested according to the new prEN 50 526-1European draft standard, which specifically pertains tometaloxide surge arresters without gaps for applicationin DC traction systems up to 3 kV nominal voltage.The arresters also meet the requirements for A1/A2functions accordingto the VDV 525 recommendation.

The hybrid low voltage limiters prevent unallowablepotential rises between different earthing systemsand also meet all requirements for the protection of

equipment against overvoltages.

As a technology leader, ABB has played a leading role in thedevelopment and production of surge arresters from thebeginning. The initial patents for the metal-oxide technology andthe direct molding of arresters in silicone form the foundationfor todays surge arresters to cover all energy requirementsaround the world. Basic research, continuous improvement andactive participation in international organizations, such asIEC and Cigr, ensure that ABB will continue to lead the wayin the field of overvoltage protection in the future as well.

Our experience and user-relevant research results are publishedin our detailed application guidelines for our customers.
