AN ORIGINAL CAD BASED DESIGN FOR A DOMESTIC LOW VOLTAGE SURGE ARRESTER MODULE
Abstract
This paper describes the design of a new product, conceived by the authors, part of a research contract and of a technological transfer, from university to the industrial market. It is a low voltage class C surge-arrester, based only on metal-oxide varistors, designed for low voltage residential equipment. Located in the indoor interior connection boxes, it could protect the whole installation against any type of occurring overvoltage (pulsed or long time one). The results of the applicative research were transferred, to be mass produced, to a local electronic products manufacturer. This domestic/residential module has some original solutions which are making this product cheaper, easy to use and adapted to any existing low voltage installation even in ancient (refurbished or not) buildings. We will present also a simple and original computational method applied to determine the exact type of varistor required. Starting from researches and 3D pictures, it goes to a fully functional product, which could be applied on a large scale.
