Taporel10kV Surge Arrester

SHARE

The arrester which uses zinc oxide semiconductor as a resistor material, such type of arrester is known as a metal oxide surge arrester or ZnO Diverter. This arrester provides protection against all types of AC and DC over voltages. It is mainly used for over-voltage protection at all voltage levels in a power system.
