Surge arrestor comprising at least one arrester element

摘要

A surge arrestor includes at least one arrestor element, and a disconnecting device for disconnecting the arrestor element from the grid. The disconnecting device includes a thermal disconnect point that is incorporated into the electrical connection path within the arrestor. A moving conductor section or a moving conductive bridge is connected to the arrestor element by way of the disconnect point. A conducting element is disposed in or at the end of the path of motion of the conductor section or of the bridge, the conducting element coming into contact with the conductor section or the bridge when the disconnecting device is triggered. A moving insulation part penetrates into the path of motion of the conductor section or of the bridge directly prior to or upon reaching a short circuit state.

1. Surge arrester comprising at least one arrester element (2), and a disconnection device for disconnecting the arrester element(s) (2) from line power, wherein the disconnection device comprises a thermal point of separation (c) which is incorporated into the electrical connection path within the arrester, wherein a movable conductor section or a movable conductive bridge (3) is connected by means of the point of separation (c) to the arrester element (2) on the one hand, and the conductor section or the bridge (3) is connected to a first external electrical connection (A) of the arrester on the other hand, and comprising a means for generating a preload force, wherein a force vector associated therewith acts directly or indirectly on the conductor section or the bridge (3) in the disconnecting direction by means of a movable disconnecting component (13), wherein further a conductive element (b) is disposed in or at the end of the path of the movement of the conductor section or the bridge (3), which comes into contact with the conductor section or the bridge (3) when the disconnection device is released, and which is connected to a second external electrical connection (B) for forming a short-circuiting device;
wherein a movable insulating part (100; 102; 103; 104) is provided which penetrates into the path of movement of the conductor section or the bridge (3) immediately prior to or upon reaching the short-circuit state in order to prevent or suppress a re-ignition of the arc between the conductive element (b) and the point of separation (c); wherein the movable disconnecting component (13) acts on the bridge (3) in the event of a disconnection, wherein the insulating part is integrated in the disconnecting component (13) or the disconnecting component (13) comprises the insulating part; and wherein the disconnecting component with the insulating part (102) has a shape similar to a boomerang including two legs, wherein the means generating the preload force acts on a first leg, the second leg forms the insulating part (102), and a rotational axis is located between both legs.
