Transmission Line Surge Arrester (NGLA) upto 400kV

Transmission Line Surge Arrester (NGLA) upto 400kV, Power supply utilities have verified load losses due to voltage snags on their systems from transitory outages caused by lightning activity and causing permanent damages. The effect of these transitory disturbances on transmission lines are more critical in areas with high ground resistivity when associated with high lightning activity. Most non-scheduled outages are transitory in nature, with a fault time shorter than 1 minute, yet deemed to be unacceptable by power supply utilities. The loss of supply is critical for all modern industries reliant on sophisticated electronic equipment and production processes sensitive to momentary disturbances to the system. Raychem RPG’s Transmission Line Surge Arresters (TLA) provides reliability to the power system by reducing non-schedule outages caused by lightening.

  • Arrester is built with short circuit fail safe characteristics
  • Transmission line disconnector offered along with arrester
  • Recommend suitable number of arresters and their positioning to minimize outages
  • TLA suspended from transmission line gives enhanced performance
  • TLA installed on towers subject to clearance

Description

Transmission Line Surge Arrester (NGLA) upto 400kV

These arresters are designed primarily to reduce lightning-related transmission-line outages. Raychem RPG states that they can be suspended directly from the transmission line or installed on towers, with the latter subject to required clearances. A transmission-line disconnector is also offered.
