Power Transmission and Distribution High Voltage Surge Arresters Station Class Product Overview

High Voltage High Protection Just as the Golden Gate Bridge has successfully defied all winds, weather and earthquakes for decades, our surge arresters in the same environment exhibit all their properties and benefits to ensure they will meet the one target to protect from lightning and switching overvoltages. With decades of experience in the design and manufacturing of high voltage power supply components, Siemens also specializes in advanced Silicone Rubber (SR) insulated surge arresters providing the highest levels of mechanical strength, performance and safety even in the most demanding environments, such as in contaminated, industrially polluted, high seismic and vandal prone critical installations. The product family of our surge arresters offers the right solution to any specific need. They have a proven fit for protecting transmission lines and transformers, as well as complete switchgear against the hazards of high voltage start-up surges, line transients and lightning. Siemens surge arresters have been succesfully tested to the latest IEEE Standard C62.11 1999. As pioneers in the field of Silicone Rubber (SR) insulation and one of the few suppliers with comprehensive inhouse research and development capabilities in this industry, we can also provide surge arresters customized to very special requirements. The cost-effectiveness of our products is underscored by uncompromising quality ensuring the long service life and reliability of each application. Available off-the-shelf, the 3EL standard series of our SR surge arresters have been designed to meet the requirements of a wide range of common installation environments. For more demanding applications, our high-end 3EQ series will maintain at least 75 % of its nominal mechanical strength in the event of a pressure relief, and can thus also be used as a regular support (station post) insulator. 2 Cover photo: Golden Gate Bridge / San Francisco (USA)

Siemens Promise System Reliability Silicone Rubber (SR) Insulation for Safety Siemens offers you two different types of arresters with SR housing: The 3EL series for standard applications, and the advanced 3EQ series for the highest performance needs. Both are designed using the same glass collared MOV-blocks resulting in the same outstanding electrical performance. SR has been used as outdoor insulation material for over 25 years, with excellent service experience even under severe climatic and environmental conditions. Today, it is among the most widely used materials for HV outdoor equipment. Silicone is highly hydrophobic. While there are many polymeric materials with similar initial hydrophobic properties, most of them lose their hydrophobicity after a relatively short period such as EPDM based alloy rubber. Only the true SR is capable of maintaining its hydrophobicity throughout its entire lifetime. This again ensures the long service life of our 3EL and 3EQ arresters. Further key advantages of SR especially compared to EPDM based alloy rubber include: High resistance to tracking erosion Excellent resistance to flashover Superior UV stability Self-extinguishing flame retardancy Adaptability to variable design and ease of processing For additional information call for our publication on Silicone Rubber insulation. 3

One Goal 3 Designs 3EL Silicone Rubber (SR) Surge Arresters in Cage Design The standard 3EL series is based on a cage of pre-stressed fiber glass reinforced rods for high mechanical strength. The SR insulation is molded directly onto the MOV-Blocks. The design provides an optimum price/performance ratio for applications up to 300 kv system voltage. 3EL 3EQ Silicone Rubber (SR) Surge Arresters in Tube Design The fiber glass reinforced poly mer (FRP) tube material has been chosen to provide the highest possible mechanical strength. Due to its excellent processi bility, the SR insulation is molded directly onto the FRP tube. The 3EQ tube design is considered the best choice for applications up to 800 kv system voltage, particularly in locations or installations with demanding environmental or extremely high mechanical/seismic requirements. 3EQ 3EP Porcelain Surge Arresters The high-quality porcelain housing of the 3EP as well as the special grade sulfur cement bonding of housing and flanges both ensure outstanding mechanical strength, for applications up to 800 kv. 3EP Total enclosure of all components for protection against partial discharges or moisture ingress High mechanical performance for standard applications Silicone Rubber shielding provides low-pressure escape of the arc in the event of a short circuit Significant weight savings vs. comparable porcelain arresters, facilitating transport and installation of the arresters Suitable for use as station and/or transmission line arresters FRP tube design for outstanding mechanical stability (much stronger than porcelain), combined with an excellent sealing system for long-life protection against ingress of moisture and partial discharges Highest level of safety in the event of short circuits from pressure relief devices, no ejection of any internal components Retention of at least 75 % of initial mechanical strength even after short circuit and thus permit s the use of the arrester as a support insulator Weight savings vs. comparable porcelain arresters Ideal for applications in areas exposed to high seismic activity, heavy wind loads and any other demanding mechanical impact Available as single-unit arresters rated up to 300 kv or twin-unit arrestors for up to 550 kv, minimizing the required number of units per stack High reliability over a wide range of temperatures and extreme temperature changes from 67 F to +122 F ( 55 C to +50 C) Reliable technology with a proven history of more than 25 years Optimized glass collared MOV-Block design Pressure relief system for very fast venting, providing the highest possible means of safety in areas requiring special protection Very high cantilever strength of max. 361110 inch lbs High-quality components for outstanding overvoltage protection 4

Product Range For 3EQ and 3EP series we offer 3 models each. They differ mainly in diameter or length of the housings and size of the MOV-Blocks to fulfill different customer requirements. At this time, the 3EL series has only one model, and its range is being extended. 3EL2 3EQ1 3EQ4 3EQ3 3EP4 3EP2 3EP3 Silicone Rubber Porcelain Reliable power transmission Application: Fixed series capacitor protected by arrester banks, consisting of multi-stack 3EP3 arresters connected in parallel Key benefits: Improved power transmission quality.
