Abstract:

Abstract With the growing demand for application of metal-oxide varistor (MOV) in low-voltage electronic circuits for overvoltage protection, it is necessary to ensure its performance to avoid the short-circuit and the line-to-ground fault during operation. In this paper, a precise leakage current analyzer was developed to detect the total leakage current and third harmonic component of MOV for its condition monitoring. The voltage- and temperature-dependent measuring uncertainties were compensated using the multipliers. In addition, the deterioration characteristics of the MOV and the newly d

Metal oxide varistors referred to as MOV were widely applied due to its excellent non-linear volt-ampere characteristic. In spite of its predominant function and using, MOV is always failed in value due to the increased temperature of MOV itself under an applied external field. The varistors assembly with an fusible alloy type thermal cutoff (called TMOV as follows) was designed in this paper, and it can make MOV avoid over-heat from degradation, failure and thus can prevent from fire hidden trouble, which was confirmed by experiments.

Abstract:

Metal oxide varistors (MOVs) are a type of resistor with significantly nonlinear current-voltage characteristics commonly used in power lines to protect against overvoltages. If a proper recycling plan is developed MOVs can be an excellent source of secondary zinc because they contain over 90 weight percent zinc oxide. The oxides of antimony, bismuth, and to a lesser degree cobalt, manganese, and nickel are also present in varistors. Characterization of the MOV showed that cobalt, nickel, and manganese were not present in the varistor material at concentrations greater than one weight percent.

In recent years, the pulse forming technology based on metal oxide varistors (MOVs) has been verified to be an effective way to generate high-voltage quasi-square pulses.

The result indicates that recursive network is more adapted to the state forecast of MOV. Because the running state of MOV is closely related to the system voltage and the environment, the state forecast method affected by multi-factors should be further considered.

Abstract:

Abstract Metal-Oxide Arresters are important equipment to ensure the reliable operation of power systems. An experimental protocol for judging the nature of MOA defects accurately is introduced in this paper and applied to engineering practice. Through diagnostic tests and dismantling inspections, it is determined that a certain batch of 110kV line MOA has a familial defect of poor sealing. Then, the reasons for dampness are analyzed, and other defects except the dampness of the varistor are discovered. Besides, the improvement of manufacturing process is proposed from aspects of terminal stru

Abstract:

C–V characteristics of ZnO -based ceramic structures used in manufacturing high-voltage and low-voltage varistors of different chemical compositions and manufacturing techniques have been investigated. A correlation between the intensity of electric field corresponding to transition of the C–V characteristics to the negative capacitances and average sizes of grains of a varistor structure has been established. Obtained data have been interpreted with the use of notions of the percolation theory of electric conductivity. The Shklovskii–De Gennes model has been used. It has been shown that on th

At the beginning, this article details the manufacturing procedures for varistor materials. Starting from the initial composition of two large series of varistors (those with two additive oxides and those with five additive oxides), there is a major overview of the main stages of the technological process and the equipment used for the production, emphasizing the technological changes that were made. The article continues with the study of the influence of the sintering pressure and the sintering temperature on the electrical properties of the varistor materials made before. There were two exp

Abstract:

Since the development of the zinc oxide-based varistor with highly nonlinear current-voltage characteristics and high energy absorption capabilities [1], the electro-physical behavior of non-ohmic ZnO varistors has been studied and related to the microstructure of the material, the conduction and degradation mechanisms, the dielectric properties, and the high pressure memory. An extensive research effort has been aimed at characterizing ZnO/ZnO grain boundary regions in order to explain the origin of the nonlinear current/voltage characteristics of these materials [2-4].

Abstract:

Four types of structurally different, flat interfaces have been observed in ZnO-based varistor ceramics containing metal-oxides additives (Bi, Mn, and Ti) by bright-field and high-resolution imaging in a transmission electron microscope. Orientation relationships have been characterized by selected-area diffraction. The faceting of ZnO grains when in contact with β–Bi2O3 is discussed in relation to the anisotropic growth of the ZnO grains which leads to pronounced faceting parallel to (0001) planes.

Abstract:

This paper introduces a novel approach to fault localization in transmission lines with series compensation using nonlinear optimization. The objective function minimization provides information on the fault distance and the current at which the protective varistor starts conducting. Terminal source data, the maximum current capacity of the capacitor, and the operating curve of the metal oxide varistor protection element are not required. The proposed method successfully met the predefined objectives, with a maximum error of 1.13% in simulated scenarios. In validating the method using real cas

Abstract:

A method of analysis of experimental kinetic dependences of isothermal depolarization currents in metal-oxide varistor ceramics composed of ZnO – Bi 2 O 3– CoO – Sb 2 O 3– SnO 2– MnO – B 2 O 3 has been proposed and tested. The method is based on reconstruction of dependences with the use of the Kohlrausch–Williams–Watt function. Expansion of the distribution and reduction of the average time of dielectric relaxation of the depolarization were found as the magnitude of the polarizing electric field increased. These findings have been interpreted in the framework of the notion of participation i
