Cage vs. Wrapped Design
Moisture Ingress into Wrapped Design SA
High Voltage
Moisture ingress into wrapped design surge arrester possible by
„
Penetration into end face
„
Diffusion through housing
„
Accumulation of water in interfaces and voids
„
MOV – FRP wrap
„
FRP wrap – SR tube
„
SR tube – SR sheds
Penetration
end cap
Countermeasures:
„
Reliable sealing system
(e.g. end caps) on end face
„
Long term stable, void-free
bonding of all interfaces

Cage vs. Wrapped Design
Moisture Ingress into Cage Design SA
High Voltage
Moisture ingress into cage design surge arrester only possible by
„
Diffusion through housing
But
„
No penetration into end face
due to hermetically tight end fitting
„
No accumulation of moisture
due to strong, void-free bonding
of all interfaces by direct moulding
of silicone rubber onto FRP rods and MOV
Î
Cage design arresters
Î are inherently resistant
Diffusion
to moisture ingress
Î show very low internal leakage current
in moist ambient conditions

-Si-O- Backbone of SR has
higher bonding energy as
–C-C- backbone of EPDM
SR has lower carbon
proportion as EPDM
Consequently, SR has
inherently better chemical
and physical resistance, UV
resistance and lower
flammability as EPDM

High voltage cage design surge arrester after short circuit test 65 kA:
„ Arc burns through silicone rubber housing in between FRP rods
„ No internal pressure built up since there is no hermetic enclosure
„ No pressure relief system needed
