Elbow Surge Arrester

The M.O.V.E. DirectConnect Elbow Arrester from Cooper Power Systems combines metal (zinc) oxide varistor technology in a premolded rubber elbow to provide overvoltage system protection in an insulated, fully shielded, submersible, deadfront device. The arrester housing interface conforms to IEEE Std 386 standard – Separable Insulated Connector Systems. The arrester housing is molded of EPDM insulating rubber, which provides deadfront safety in a small, clampstick operable unit. M.O.V.E. DirectConnect Elbow Arresters are used on underground systems in pad-mounted transformer and entry cabinets, vaults, switching enclosures and other installations to provide shielded deadfront arrester protection. They are designed for use with 600 A 35 kV Class deadbreak interfaces that conform to IEEE Std 386 standard to limit overvoltages to acceptable levels, protect equipment and extend cable life.
