The advantage of application polymer instead of conventional porcelain as the housing material for arrester is that light weight, shorter section length of arrester would be possible due to the use of an insulated hanger (mold compound). also, polymer arrester has very good characteristics in design versatility as well as excellent resistance to moist ingress and pollution performance. The finite element method is widely used to calculate for electromagnetic devices. In this paper, we perform the each conditional analysis of PC with an advanced graphical user interface(GUI) using the vector fields simulator. And we try to analyze electromagnetic fields through the conventional two dimensional analysis in case of high voltage contamination on the electrode of a arrester.

This paper describes the series-gap characteristics of transmission line arrester with switching and lightning impulse flashover test. The transmission line arrester exhibited external gap because it is must not flashover with switching impulse on the other hand it is must flashover with lightning impulse. In accordance, minimum and maximum length of series-gap was determinated with these tests. As gap length is increased flashover voltage was increased in the range of 315.4 kV~496.3 kV and negative polarity exhibited a high voltage. As a result, It was thought tat the series-gap length of transmission line arrester exhibited in the range of 580 mm~1100 mm.

This study is to investigate the pressure wave characteristics and the absorption of maximum and minimum pressure generated by instantaneous valve closure at the end of the straightening copper piping system with and without a water hammer arrester. Experiments were conducted under the following conditions : initial pressure 1~5 bar, flow velocity 0.6~3.0 m/s, water temperature $20^{\circ}C$ and air volume of water hammer arrester $80~180^cm^3$. Experimental results show that the optimum air volume of water hammer arrester is 110㎤.

This paper describes a type test results of 154 kV transmission line arrester with external gap. The test was carried on surge arrester unit and line arrester with external gap, respectively. Withstand voltage test demonstrate the voltage withstand capability of the line arrester with external series gap under the dry and wet conditions. In insulation coordination test external series gap shall be discharged every time when lightning impulse voltage with the steepness of more than 1500 $kV/{\mu}s$ are applied under the wet condition.

The sealing integrity is related to the safe operation of arrester the prime failure reason of porcelain housed arresters is moisture ingress. To be a meaningful tests a polymer arrester sealing test must be a realistic acceleration of field service. We think the test should be an accelerating course of actual temperatures, the enduring property to mechanical load and temperatures should be considered together. A union test method consisting of the thermal mechanical test and thermal cycling test is proposed to test the sealing integrity of polymeric arresters, which uses dielectric loss, leakage current 1mA DC voltage and partial discharge as the diagnostic techniques, and the test results were presented. The comparison states that the TMTCUT method is suitable fur the test of sealing integrity of polymeric arresters. .

This paper describes the characteristics of lightning impulse current of ZnO block for transmission line arrester with external gap. The ageing parameters of lightning arresters are impulse current, moisture ingress, temperature ageing and so on. Especially it is important to estimate the change of electrical characteristics by impulse current. Total energy applied to the ZnO arrester each time is $4/10{\mu}s$, 30kA and $2/20{\mu}s$, 10kA impulse current. Before and After the test, the residual voltage variation of varistors passed was below 5%. According to the test, it is thought that the ZnO arrester shows good stability with impulse current test.

This paper introduces performance characteristics of existing distribution class arrester ground lead disconnecting devices. The paper also introduces a new distribution class ground lead disconnector design that not only extends the claimable detonation range well below the 20 amps specified in industry standards, but is very durable when exposed to severe arrester durability tests. Finally, this paper shows how this next generation disconnector interacts with the connected arrester to improve the overvoltage withstand capability of the arrester assembly.

This paper provides the result of the analysis of the lightening arresters which were disconnected from the power line due to the overvoltage having high current. The effect of thermal runaway on the microstructures of lightening arrester's block was intensively investigated. The chance of the microstructures of the blocks was limited only on the breakdown paths and near them. Also even though a disconnector was disconnected from the arrester, some of the lightening arrester were showed normal characteristics.

This study aims to evaluate the properties and the performance of the newly designed disconnector for surge arrester. This disconnector was verified with the performance in long-duration current impulse test and high current impulse test. And time-current characteristic test was done at 20A, 200A and 800A(3points) for simulating the internal fault condition of the arrester. The results of this test was very good. Consequently, the newly designed disconnector was, evaluated that it is possible to be used for surge arrester in distribution line system.
