    I was always intrigued by why there are all those odd contraptions on electric utility poles. This explains it all and breaks down the concepts. I already was familiar with step down transformers and grounders but all the other equipment was a mystery to me.

    Also two lightning arrestors within a second becomes super hot when operating for that millisecond and if any cracks or erosion was to form outside the insulation it will explode aka a bad lightning arrestor

      Thermal imaging is the best way to tell if an arrester is not failing. If it is not failing it is working. See www.arresterworks.com/arresterfacts/pdf_files/infrared_thermometer_as_arrester_tester.pdf

    i do not work for power company but i think due to non lightning area we live in, we never use SAs in less than 132000 volts...
    is that correct?

    • @jjwoodworth
      @jjwoodworth  8 лет назад +4

      Greetings Roland, An insulator is always an insulator. An Arrester is like an insulator until a surge comes along and then it turns into a conductor. It insulates most of the time. I like to call an arrester a smart insulator but niether the arrester or insulator manufacturers would like that.
