SUSPENSION
SURGE ARRESTER AT
SILICONE RUBBER ZINC OXIDE SURGE ARRESTER
The continued research for protection equipment’s on the electrical apparatus in order to
contain voltage surges, which can occur transmission and distribution networks, has
induced Rebosio engineers to develop a zinc oxide (ZnO) surge arrester with electrical
performance, high mechanical strength, seismic performance and explosion proof.

The silicone housing of surge arresters gives it all the improved service requirements and
reliability for the networks where it is installed.

ZnO surge arresters provide primary protection against voltage surges caused by external
agents or by disturbances in the transmission system such as the opening and closing of
switches, earth faults, mishandling of equipment etc.

If these surges exceed the insulation level (BIL = Basic Insulation Level) the equipment’s
can be damaged.

Surge arresters limit these surges to a safety level (less than the BIL of the equipment) thus
protecting the station equipment.

The maximum voltage that the arresters can transmit to the station it is connected with, is
called the “Level of protection of the surge arrester”.

The difference between the BIL and the “Level of protection of the surge arrester” is called
the “margin of protection”.

An important quantity of the ZnO arrester is its capacity to withstand transitory over-
voltages and other disturbances in the system.

The zinc oxide elements have an extremely non linear current voltage characteristic and an
excellent capacity for energy dissipation that allow the elements to guarantee the functions:

 Level protection, defined in the field of high current (1-20 kA) and from the capacity to
withstand over-voltage in the field of low currents (less than 1 A) and coincides with the
phase-earth operating voltage of the system where it is installed.
 Such intervention so as not to produce system disturbances that could prejudice the
continuity of the service and abnormal stresses on the components of the network.
 Capacity to withstand any energy based stress associated without damage or changes in
operating characteristics.
 Ability to limit over-voltage and to absorb associated energy.
 Capacity to absorb high intensity currents of short and long duration.
 Elimination of slow intervention to the service voltage in the presence of the
phenomenon of pollution on the external surface of the arresters exemplary internal
structure.

CHOICE OF THE ZINC OXIDE ZnO SURGE ARRESTER

The choice of the correct rated voltage of a surge arrester is a compromise between the level
of protection and the capacity to withstand over-voltage in the system.

Knowing the earthling data and the values of the transient over-voltage one can determine
the value of the rated voltage of the surge arrester.

 Raising the rated voltage increases the capacity of the surge arrester to withstand
temporary over-voltages, however it reduces the protection margin. Therefore, it is
necessary to choose an arrester with the minimum permissible voltage using a pitch
apparatus system.
 Lowering the rated voltage increases the dangers of failure during the operation.

CORRECT INSTALLATION ZnO SURGE ARRESTER.

The protection against over-voltages in a station for direct lightning strikes, is not based
solely on the correct choice of a surge arrester but also on a number of important elements:

 Decreasing the distance between the arrester and the equipment to be protected.
 Installing further surge arresters at the entrance of the lines.
 Correct calculation of the discharge current at the presence of lightning because
lightning can cause currents with steeper fronts.
 Precise verification of the perfect installation of the ZnO surge arrester and the
resistance of the earth system.

GENERAL

From a continuous development program Rebosio has produced Zinc Oxide Surge

CONSTRUCTION

The construction of this range is well proved and the service performance has been well
tested in climates ranging from the arctic circle with an average variable temp. of +60°C.

The ZnO block is composed of a series of non linear resistors achieved by means of a
sintering process of extremely compacted ceramic dust, made up of principally Zinc Oxide
and small quantities of other metal oxides such as bismuth, cobalt, antimony and
manganese oxide.

The method of the internal construction is composed of a high strength bond in an uniform
manner in order to avoid condensation and entrapment of air voids.

Rebosio surge arresters are built according to a stringent quality control procedure and all
the material and construction methods are subject to 100% checks.

The advantage of the reduced weight with respect to the porcelain housed arresters has
recently grown from an intrinsic service safety point of view.

This range of silicone housed surge arresters has been subjected to water-proofs tests
according to discharge pressure test requirements for greater safety of personnel in areas of
high seismic risk.

APPLICATIONS

This range of surge arresters in silicone has the unique characteristic of a higher resistance
to bending breaking point such that series ISI-HE* surge arresters can be used to substitute
cable support insulators on H.V. terminals with reduced cost, the result is more aesthetically
acceptable and it should be noted that this type of installation cannot be achieved with
arresters of a lower construction strength.

The vandal proof, non-explosive failure mode, low weight, small size, suitable for
installation in heavy salt coastal environments, resistant to transport damage, careless
handling and easy to install, they all are additional positive characteristics of our arresters.

POLLUTION PERFORMANCE

Global pollution is becoming an enormous problem.

This range of silicone surge arresters can be used in highly polluted regions including
coastal areas with saline fog conditions, without any their protection characteristics the
housing material used by Rebosio has complete tests documentation according to all the
standards in force.
