An ABB lightning arrestor is a protective device designed to safeguard electrical systems, power equipment, and infrastructure from the damaging effects of lightning surges and switching overvoltages. ABB, a global leader in power and automation technologies, manufactures arrestors that meet international standards (such as IEC 60099-4).
Key Features:
Surge Protection: Diverts lightning and switching surges safely to the ground, preventing equipment failure.
Non-linear ZnO Varistor Technology: Uses zinc oxide blocks that provide high energy absorption and excellent protection with minimal leakage current under normal operating voltage.
