Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a surge protector, belonging to the technical field of lightning protection equipment, in particular to a novel multi-pulse surge protector. Background technique [0002] With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous development of electronic technology, various advanced electronic products are increasingly widely used in the information industry, transportation, electric power, finance, chemical industry and other fields. With the gradual intelligentization of various electrical components in low-voltage power distribution systems, a large number of electronic components with low voltage resistance, high sensitivity and high integration are selected as a result. However, lightning overvoltage or operating overvoltage often brings fatal damage to these electronic components, which makes the breadth, depth and frequency of overvoltage damage continue to increase. Therefore, in order to prevent lightning o...

Problems solved by technology

In order to pass the first-level test, usually the first-level SPD adopts a mixed design of switch and voltage limiting device. This hybrid SPD (T1) has a large flow capacity. However, in addition to the existence of pressure-limiting SPD and switching SPD In addition to its inherent shortcomings, the coordination of its energy and time cannot meet the requirements of suppressing lightning pulses. Not only that, further scientific experiments and lightning protection practices have shown that the method of testing SPD with a single pulse in the lightning high-voltage laboratory is consistent with a real lightning strike The facts of multiple pulses do not match. The tolerance of the SPD tested by the lightning high voltage laboratory with a single pulse is far from its nominal value in real lightning strikes, which often leads to SPD overheating, explosion and fire, causing fire accidents

SPD natural lightning strike tolerance test at Guangzhou Field Lightning Test Base on August 12, 2008: There are 8 times of negative polarity non-single LEMP return strikes, the maximum current is 26.4kA, the maximum current flowing through SPD is 1.64KA, resulting in a nominal current of 20kA The SPD is damaged
