    ? Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
    Q1 What is the difference between a surge arrester and a surge protector?
    A While both protect against surges, surge arresters are heavy-duty devices used in high-voltage electrical systems (e.g., utility grids, substations). Surge protectors (or SPDs) are used for lower-voltage, end-point applications (e.g., in homes and offices).
    Q2 How often should a surge arrester be replaced or maintained?
    A Surge arresters are typically maintenance-free. However, they should be inspected periodically for physical damage. They do have a finite lifespan and should be replaced after diverting a major surge or according to the manufacturer's recommended service interval.
    Q3 Can a surge arrester protect against a direct lightning strike?
    A Surge arresters are designed to manage the massive surge current from a direct or nearby lightning strike. They are a key part of a complete Lightning Protection System (LPS), which also includes air terminals (lightning rods) and proper grounding.
    Q4 How do I select the right surge arrester for my application?
    A Selection depends on system voltage (MCOV), energy absorption requirements (kA), duty cycle, and the specific equipment being protected. Contact our engineering team for a free consultation.
    Q5 What voltage classes of surge arresters are available?
    A Our surge arresters are available across a wide range of voltage classes, from distribution-level (1 kV–36 kV) to transmission-level (up to 1000 kV), suitable for various grid and industrial applications.
    Q6 Are your surge arresters compliant with international standards?
    A Yes. Our surge arresters are designed and tested in accordance with IEC 60099-4, IEEE C62.11, and other relevant international standards, ensuring reliability and compatibility with global electrical infrastructure requirements.
