Capacitor protection by surge arresters

Using surge arresters. Many capacitor banks are operated without surge arresters. However, there are a variety of reasons to instal arresters: To prevent capacitor failures at a breaker restrike or failure. To limit the risk of repeated breaker restrikes. To prolong the service life of the capacitors by limiting high overvoltages.

Capacitor protection by surge arresters

Generally speaking, capacitor protection by surge arresters has been a difficult task before Z n O arresters became available. The high discharge currents and possible energies associated with an arrester operation at a capacitor bank heavily stressed the spark gaps in a S i C gapped arrester. The possible high energies could also result in overstressed SiC blocks.

Lightning surge protection for electronic equipment

Lightning-induced voltage surges are often described as a ''secondary effect'' of lightning and there are three recognized means by which these surges are induced in mains or data/telecommunications cables:-a) Resistive coupling (see section 2.2) b) Inductive coupling (see section 2.3) c) Capacitive coupling (see section 2.4)

Analysis of lightning-caused ferroresonance in Capacitor

A lightning strike can cause ferroresonance in a CVT. The most severely affected side of the CVT is the primary side. Presently mitigation of ferroresonance is by using spark gap. The use of spark gap does not effectively mitigate ferroresonance. A new design is proposed for the spark gap to be in parallel with the resistor and in series with the capacitor.

6 FAQs about [Lightning arrester coupling capacitor]

Do surge arresters reduce MV & HV capacitor overvoltage?

Installation of arresters also minimizes probability of restrike, especially of multiple restrikes. This edited past contribution to INMR by Tim Rastall and Kerim Ozer of Enspec Power in the United Kingdom discussed application of surge arresters for mitigation of overvoltages on MV & HV capacitors based on single restrike.

Can a surge arrester protect a capacitor?

What is the crest value of a lightning arrester?

The crest value of the wave is called the Basic Impulse Insulation Level (BIL) of the equipment. Each type of electrical equipment has a standard BIL rating. Lightning arresters are coordinated with standard electrical equipment insulation levels so that they will protect the insulation against lightning over voltages.

How do you calculate the protective distance of a lightning arrester?

On the other hand, the protective distance L for the arrester can be derived from equation (4) from the rated lightning impulse voltage of the LIWV equipment. For this purpose, the length of the arrester with its connection to the earthing system must also be taken into consideration (L=L1+L 2).

Do capacitor banks need surge arresters?

Many capacitor banks are operated without surge arresters. However, there are a variety of reasons to instal arresters: To prevent capacitor failures at a breaker restrike or failure. To limit the risk of repeated breaker restrikes. To prolong the service life of the capacitors by limiting high overvoltages.

What causes a re-strike in a lightning arrester?

Surge voltages associated with the discharge of lightning arresters at other locations within the facility. When capacitors are switched in and out of the circuit, it is possible to get a re-strike when interrupting the capacitor circuit current. A steep-front voltage excursion may be created from each re-strike.
