LHQ 35kV Large Cross-Section Power Lightning Arrester
Overview
35kV large cross-section power cables, as well as power cables with voltage grades of 66kV, 110kV, and above, are typically single-core cables. One end of the cable's metal sheath is interconnected and grounded, while the other end remains ungrounded. When lightning or internal overvoltage waves travel along the cable core, a high impulse overvoltage may occur at the ungrounded end of the cable's metal sheath. Alternatively, when a system short-circuit current passes through the cable core, a high power frequency induced overvoltage can also occur at the ungrounded end of the sheath. Such overvoltages can damage the insulation of the cable's outer protective layer, leading to multiple grounding faults in the metal protective layer. This can severely affect the normal operation of the power cable and potentially reduce its service life. As a result, the power industry standard DL/T401-1991 "Guidelines for the Selection of High-Voltage Power Cables" mandates the use of a cable sheath protector to limit the induced voltage and fault overvoltage on the metal shielding layer (or metal sheath) of the power cable.
Product Features
The silicone rubber cable sheath protector designed by our company for cable lines with one end grounded and cross-connected offers the following advantages:
• Utilizes high-quality ZnO chips with large capacity and low residual voltage, ensuring a high current capacity and superior protection ratio.
• Effectively limits and reduces power frequency induced overvoltage and impulse overvoltage in the metal sheath of the cable.
• The silicone rubber jacket is integrally molded, providing excellent sealing, strong anti-fouling capabilities, lightweight, compact size, anti-collision properties, and resistance to heat, cold, aging, and maintenance-free operation.
• When a discharge counter or monitor is installed, it can automatically and accurately record the number of operations and the operating quality of the protector under various overvoltages.
