Definition of surge arresters
Surge arresters are used to protect high-voltage equipment in substations, such as transformers, circuit
breakers, and bushings, against the effects of overvoltages caused by incoming surges. Such overvoltages
can be caused by a direct or nearby lightning strike, an electromagnetic pulse, electrostatic discharge, or
switching operations in the power supply system as well as in devices. Some overvoltages are very high in
energy. The current from the surge is diverted through the arrester, in most cases to earth. Effective over-
voltage protection requires different surge arrester types to be used according to the particular application.

Siemens is a pioneer in many fields of the electricity and digitization markets. Experience is most essential
when it comes to reliability in medium- and high-voltage applications. Since 1925 Siemens has been manufac-
turing high-voltage surge arresters up to duty cycle voltages of 1,200 kV for standard and specialized appli-
cations. Our permanent research and development and the concerted know-how in our factories give our
surge arresters a leading edge in overvoltage protection. Our uncompromising quality ensures the long
