The hazards of electrostatic discharge
Dec 22 , 2021
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electrical fast transients (EFT) cause different hazards to instrumentation systems. Electrostatic discharge produces strong radio frequency radiation in the frequency range of 5 to 200 MHz.The peak of this radiated energy often occurs between 35MHz and 45MHz, and self-oscillation occurs. The resonant frequency of many information transmission cables is usually wi...

Brief introduction to MOV of SPD
Dec 21 , 2021
Metal oxide varistor (MOV) is a semiconductor element with a unique grain boundary structure. Its resistance value decreases sharply with the increase of voltage. It has excellent nonlinear volt-ampere characteristics, as well as high current capacity, the lower residual voltage, no freewheeling and lower cost. That’s why mov has been the first choice to be used in power and signal ports as over-v...

SPD backup protector
Dec 15 , 2021
As fuses and circuit breakers show insufficient surge current withstand capability when used in conjunction with SPD, it is necessary to improve the surge current withstand capability. Analyzing the influence of circuit breakers with different rated currents on the breaking capacity of the SSD power frequency short-circuit circuit, to summarize the selection points and coordination suggesti...

Lightning protection to Railway Power Lines
Dec 09 , 2021
To the railway power transmission lines, they are narrow and long, with long distance power supply,bad environment, and frequent accidents, especially in mountainous areas, jungles and river networks, and inconvenient traffic. Once the line fails, it is very difficult to find the fault point and maintain, with high labor intensity and long time to restore power sup...

Thunder and lightning
Nov 25 , 2021
As we all know, when the charge in a thunderstorm cloud reaches a certain amount, a strong electric field is formed between different parts of the cloud or between the cloud and the ground. When the charge accumulates to a certain degree,discharge occurs between the cloud and the cloud or between the cloud and the ground. The occurrence of thunder and lightning comes from the acc...

Basic knowledge about grouding
Nov 23 , 2021
When a lightning wave hits a tower or lightning conductor, most of the lightning current will flow into the ground through the grounding device. If the grounding resistance is too high, the lightning current will generate a very high voltage on the top of the tower, causing the insulator to flash over and cause the line to trip. In recent years, power outages caused by lightning strikes have...
