A new developed impulse current test system(100kV, 250kJ)is presented, which can carry out all impulse current and performance tests on surge arrester sections with rated voltage up to 12kV according to IEC 60099-4(2001). The maximum achievable peak value is 200kA for the impulse current $4/10{\mu}s$ and 60kA for the $30/80{\mu}s$ and $8/20{\mu}s$. The long duration current impulse is realized from class 1 to class 5. The digital transient recorder(4 channels 60MS/S 10bit) is used for measuring AC voltage, impulse current, reference voltage and leakage current. The complex control, measuring, evaluation and data storage system is controlled by one industrial PC system.

This paper deals with an effective installation method of lightning protective devices for information and communication facilities. Due to the potential difference between grounding of the AC power lines and communication lines, the equipments connected to the communication lines are easily damaged by lightning surges. So we have examined the behaviors of surge protective devices against lightning surges from the AC power lines and signal lines, and the coordination effects of SPD installation method were investigated. As a result, it was confirmed that the bypass arrester method and common grounding method were very effected.
