Impulse current test systems - Series S

  • Suitable for testing of surge arresters, fuses, etc.
  • Low-inductance design for optimal waveforms.
  • Current range: up to 240 kA.
  • Charging voltage: 100 kV.
  • Impulse energy: up to 250 kJ.
Impulse current test systems (IP S) are used for equipment applied in transmission and distribution systems against the effects of direct or indirect lightning strokes or against electromagnetic interference effects.
The test systems generate impulse currents up to peak value of 240 kA (4/10 µs) in accordance with IEC 60060-1 as well as IEC 60099-4 for surge arresters,  IEC 62305-1 for lightning protection elements, and IEC 61643-11 for surge protection devices.
