15kV 200A Elbow Arrester – Surge Protection for Medium Voltage Distribution
Winding Wire’s 15kV 200A Elbow Surge Arrester is engineered to provide reliable overvoltage protection for medium-voltage underground power distribution systems. Designed to interface directly with standard 15kV 200A loadbreak bushings and elbow connectors, this arrester diverts harmful lightning and switching surges away from critical electrical components, minimizing equipment damage and service interruptions.
This elbow arrester features a robust, fully shielded and submersible design, making it ideal for use in pad-mounted transformers, switchgear, and cable junctions. Built with a high-energy zinc oxide varistor core encased in peroxide-cured EPDM rubber, it delivers superior surge absorption, thermal stability, and long-term field reliability under severe environmental conditions.
Key Features:
- Rated Voltage: 15kV Class
- Continuous Current Rating: 200A
- Surge Protection: High-energy metal oxide varistor (MOV) core
- Construction: Molded EPDM housing with semi-conductive shielding
- Design: Loadbreak interface compliant with IEEE 386
- Weather Resistance: UV, ozone, water, and pollution resistant
Applications:
- Pad-mounted and subsurface transformers
- Underground distribution switchgear
- Cable risers and vault-mounted terminals
- Wind and solar farm electrical grids
Advantages:
- Protects electrical equipment from transient overvoltage
- Interchangeable with industry-standard elbow arrester designs
- Easy to install and maintain in compact environments
- Enhances system reliability and prolongs equipment lifespan
Winding Wire’s 15kV 200A Elbow Arrester is a trusted solution for preventing electrical surge failures, offering both mechanical durability and electrical reliability in critical distribution applications.
