Railway applications - Fixed installations - DC switchgear - Part 5: Surge arresters and low-voltage limiters for specific use in d.c. systems IEC 61992-5:2006 ED1

Publication date:   Feb 7, 2006

Scope

Covers particular requirements for surge arresters for specific use in fixed installations of d.c. traction systems. They consist of one or more non-linear resistors which may be in series with single or multiple spark gaps. Covers also low-voltage limiters, that is protective devices mainly used in fixed installations of d.c. traction systems to connect certain portions of the circuit.
