Description

750~1000kV Metal Oxide Surge Arresters are high-performance protective devices engineered for ultra-high voltage (UHV) power transmission systems operating within the 750kV to 1000kV range. These arresters integrate advanced metal oxide varistors (MOVs) into rugged housings—often composite silicone rubber or high-strength porcelain—to suppress severe transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes, switching operations, or system faults in UHV grids. Installed at key points such as substations, transmission line terminals, and near critical equipment like transformers and circuit breakers, they divert massive surge currents to the ground while clamping voltage spikes to levels safe for UHV infrastructure, ensuring the stability and reliability of large-scale power transmission networks.

Features

• UHV-Specific Design：Rated exclusively for 750kV to 1000kV systems, with electrical parameters optimized to handle the extreme voltage stresses and high energy levels unique to ultra-high voltage transmission, ensuring compatibility with UHV grid equipment.

• Extreme Energy Absorption：Equipped with high-density MOVs capable of absorbing enormous surge energy from catastrophic events (e.g., direct lightning on UHV lines or substation faults), preventing insulation breakdown in high-value UHV components.

• Ultra-Fast Response：Microsecond-scale reaction to transient overvoltages minimizes voltage overshoot, critical for protecting UHV transformers and cables—where even short-duration spikes can cause irreversible damage.

• Enhanced Environmental Resistance：Housings (advanced composite or porcelain) offer superior durability against harsh conditions: UV radiation, extreme temperature fluctuations, heavy pollution, and coastal humidity, ensuring reliability in diverse UHV deployment environments (e.g., deserts, mountainous regions).

• Low Steady-State Leakage：Minimal leakage current during normal operation reduces energy loss and heat buildup, maintaining efficiency in UHV grids where even small losses can impact large-scale power transmission.

• Mechanical Robustness：Structurally reinforced to withstand high wind loads, vibration, and installation stresses in UHV substations, ensuring stability in large-scale infrastructure with heavy equipment and long operational cycles.

• Compliance with UHV Standards：Meets stringent international standards (e.g., IEC 60099-4, GB/T 11032 for UHV) and undergoes rigorous testing for impulse withstand, thermal stability, and long-term performance, guaranteeing compatibility with global UHV networks.

• Integration with UHV Monitoring：Many models feature built-in sensors for real-time monitoring of leakage current and temperature, enabling integration with UHV grid management systems for predictive maintenance and early fault detection.
