Monitoring devices for surge arresters
Surge arresters are highly reliable components in power
transmission and distribution systems. When operated in
accordance with their specifications, their service life can
span as much as 30 years without any maintenance.
Nevertheless, overloads may sometimes occur that can
cause arrester failure and even endanger the safety of the
network.
Monitors assist in the early detection of relevant changes
and support security of supply on a whole new level.
Siemens offers a complete line of monitoring devices with
a variety of innovative functionalities that can be perfectly
matched to the customer’s requirements, ensuring that
impending faults will be detected as early as possible and
before the security of supply is compromised.

Based on solid experience
Siemens has over 85 years of experience with surge
arresters – a solid foundation on which to build a comprehensive range of monitors that are precisely tailored to
today’s surge arrester technology. Siemens’ line of surge
arrester monitors ranges from simple counters and condition indicators to periodic analytic condition monitoring
and a future live condition monitoring system. All monitors provide the requisite information on surge arrester
responses and the arrester’s condition – perfectly matched
to the respective voltage level, network situation, and customer requirements.
