Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are essential components for the protection of electrical power system and electronic equipment. The 2027-47-C GDT, as it is commonly known, has been widely used in the protection of electrical power and telecommunications systems. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of 2027-47-C GDT.

2027-47-C GDT is most widely used in the protection of medium voltage distribution systems, particularly in those electrical power systems which have exposed power circuits to atmospheric conditions. It is also used for the protection of instrumentation and control systems in the industrial sector. 2027-47-C GDTs are ideal for this application due to their excellent mechanical performance and long service life. The GDT also provides high current rating and high surge withstand capabilities. Furthermore, the GDT has an adjustable voltage and current rating giving operators greater flexibility in terms of protection.

In terms of its working principle, the 2027-47-C GDT consists of an outer shell of dielectric material, a gas, a pair of electrodes and a spark gap. It can be found in both air and gas insulating systems. In an air system, the voltage stress imposed on the GDT is reduced by sparking within the spark gap. This spark-over causes the current to be diverted, thereby protecting the protected equipment. In gas systems, a current is induced in the GDT by the applied voltage difference between the electrodes, and this induced current is used to provide insulation and protection.

In operation, the 2027-47-C GDT contains two electrodes, which are placed close together. In the event of a lightning strike or strong electromagnetic field, the resulting current caused by a potential difference between the electrodes will cause the spark gap to form a breakdown arc, which dissipates the excessive voltage. This breakdown arc will reduce the voltage stress and will protect the protected equipment from potential damage. As the current passes through the GDT, it will generate a voltage drop proportional to the current, thereby providing additional protection.

The 2027-47-C GDT is also designed with spark gaps of adjustable size. This allows operators to select the optimal spark gap size for the application to provide the most effective protection. In addition, the spark gap size can be adjusted to provide additional protection, depending on the nature and length of the service. This increases the application flexibility of the GDT and its suitability for different environments.

Overall, the 2027-47-C GDT enjoys wide application for the protection of electrical and electronic systems. It provides excellent performance, long service life, adjustable voltage and current rating, and adjustable spark-gap size. These features make it ideal for protection of power and instrumentation systems in mid-voltage electrical distribution. Furthermore, its ability to dissipate excessive voltage and provide protection from damaging current makes it an excellent choice for industrial applications.
