Standard Details
Superseded by IEEE Std C62.11-2005. Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48–62 Hz power circuits (>1 kV) are covered in this standard. These devices operate by discharging surge current. Devices for separate mounting and those supplied integrally with other equipment are also discussed.

This standard defines the design/type tests, routine test, acceptance tests and classifications for line surge arresters (LSA). The arresters covered by this standard are Non-Gapped Line Arresters (NGLA) and Externally Gapped Line Arresters (EGLA) for use on AC or DC transmission and distribution power lines with system voltages > 1kV.

Existing Standards |
Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current are discussed. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to those supplied integrally with other equipment.

Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48-Hz to 62-Hz power circuits by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current,are discussed. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to those supplied integrally with other equipment.

|
This standard applies to metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate that an arrester can survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system phenomena while protecting equipment and/or the system from damaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, and other undesirable surges.

Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to
62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the
flow of system power current applies to this amendment. This amendment covers devices for
separate mounting and to those supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate
that an arrester can survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system
phenomena, while, at the same time, protect equipment and/or the system from damaging
overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, or other undesirable surges.

Metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (􀀡 1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current are addressed in this standard. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate that an arrester is able to survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system phenomena while protecting equipment and/or the system from damaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, and other undesirable surges.
