A surge arrester is a device to protect electrical equipment from over voltage transients caused by external lightning or internal switching events. The second step in household surge protection is to install a lightning arrester inside of your electric service panel.
The selection of arrester depends on the various factors like voltage current reliability etc. A lightning arrester alternative spelling lightning arrestor also called lightning diverter is a device used on electric power systems and telecommunication systems to protect the insulation and conductors of the system from the damaging effects of lightning the typical lightning arrester has a high voltage terminal and a ground terminal. View as grid list. Difference between surge arrester lightning arrester and lightning rod.
Surge arrester is used to protect the circuit or electrical equipment from high voltage transient or electrical surges. When potentially dangerous lightning strikes the arrester activates and diverts the lightning to ground where it will disperse harmlessly. It is placed very near to the equipment and when the lightning occurs the arrester diverts the high voltage wave of lightning to the ground. For consumer equipment protection different products.
In this video we show you how to install a sector lightning arrester on your electrical panel. These devices can be extremely effective in intercepting large voltage surges which travel in the electric power lines. Surge arresters are installed inside the panels to cancel out the surges. Types of lightning arresters the lightning arrester protects the electrical equipment from lightning.
