SURGE ARRESTER INSTALLATION GUIDE – TIPS FROM A LIGHTNING

35kV busbar surge arrester burned out

35kV busbar surge arrester burned out

After thorough investigation, the root cause was found to be a batch of "civilian grade" Lightning Arresters with a nominal voltage of 35kV but actually designed according to distribution line standards. Your surge arresters are the silent guardians of your power system, deflecting lightning strikes and switching surges around your critical assets. This article introduces a case of 35kV ring main unit busbar insulation breakdown failure, analyzes the failure causes and proposes solutions , providing reference for the construction and operation of new energy power stations. The failure of an arrester almost always results in a complete short circuit inside its housing. In most scenarios, failure occurs due to dielectric breakdown, whereby the internal structure has deteriorated to the point where the arrester is unable to withstand applied voltage, whether normal.
