IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for Alternating Current Power Circuits (>1KV)

Superseded by IEEE Std C62.11-2005 Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48¬62 Hzpower circuits (>1 kV) are covered in this standard. These devices operate by discharging surgecurrent. Devices for separate mounting and those supplied integrally with other equipment are alsodiscussed.
