T-Body Elbow Arrester

ELB-35-600 Arrester

600 A 35 kV T-Body Elbow Arrester

The Raychem ELB-35-600-ARSTR elbow arresters are designed to protect underground cables and high-voltage apparatus from voltage surges due to lightning and switching transients. They are fully submersible and meet the performance requirements of IEEE C62 11 and IEEE standard 386.

The 600A interface elbow arrester eliminates the need for bushing extenders, reducing tap
plugs, and 200A load break interface arresters and installs in the same manner as a standard
35 kV 600 A elbow. The design incorporates an epoxy fiber module which integrates all MOV
components in a single unit.

• The 600A interface bolts directly to a bushing, saving space and eliminating the need for adaptors.
• All MOV elements and end fittings are integrated in a single piece There are no glued interfaces The
  design is void and gap free ensuring peak performance under the harshest conditions.
• Tested in accordance with the dead front arrester failure mode test, which has proven TE’s elbow
  arrester to have safe and predictable failure characteristics.
• Large diameter MOV elements provide high energy handling capability.
