Abstract
The voltage and electric field distribution in an arrester are very important for its long operation 15 kV with and without pollution. In order to clarify the influence of pollution severity conditions on metal oxide surge arrester, the finite element method (FEM) compilation of the voltage distribution in the ZnO column varistors under different pollution layer conductivity (200 μS, 70μS, 20μS) and clean was employed using the FEMLAB package.
