Technical Specification - Surge Arresters SPD Type
Technical Specification - Surge Arresters SPD Type
Description:
The surge arrester consists of a semi-conductor valve element that opens at
certain conditions. At normal conditions of the system, the surge arrester has
infinitely high resistance between the protected conductors and earthing circuit.
At voltage increase due to atmospheric nature or system failure, the valve
element opens and leads the excessive voltage to the grounded circuit. After
reversion of the normal voltage the valve element closes. The arrester can endure
high momentary overloading.
Functions:
protection of heavy-loaded electrical circuits from overload
used to protect not only particular consumers/circuits, but also the whole
panel
remarkable with high reliability of current characteristics
control: automatic switching off at exit failure and recovery after
eliminating the danger
Technical data:
Rated operating voltage Uc: - the operating voltage of the surge arrester
275/440V; 50Hz
Surge voltage Up: the voltage created in surge arrester terminals at rated
discharge current running: according to the tables
Rated discharge current In – the rated value of discharge current with a
sinusoid 8/20μs, which can be repeatedly led to the ground: according to
the tables
Full discharge current Imax – the peak value of the discharge current with a
sinusoid 8/20μs, which the surge arrester can bear once: according to the
table
Constant operating current: up to 800μA for 1P, 2P and 3P; up to 600μA for
1P + N, 3P + N

Schemes:
The surge arrester selection is made according to the overload risk level or
atmosphere activity, named B, C or D (from high to low risk level).
The company offers the following models of arresters:
Model SPD – Bxxxx – for systems with exceptionally high risk level. Mounted
mainly in the beginning of the installation or in the main panel.
Model SPD – Cxxxx – for systems with high or average risk level. Mounted in the
beginning of the installation or before the breaker.
Model SPD – Dxxxx – for systems with low risk level. Suitable for secondary
protection of consumers in combination with SPD – Bxxxx/SPD – Cxxxx
