Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are protective devices used in the electrical industry against over-voltage transients caused by lightning and other sources. The GTCR38-351M-R10-FS is a particular arrestor in this category, which is designed to protect power transmission lines from high voltage surges.

The working principle of the GTCR38-351M-R10-FS is based on a combination of both series and shunt elements operating in coordination. The series element of the device is a Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) designed to provide the primary current attenuation needed for surge current levels up to 10kA. The shunt element consists of a pre-ionized spark gap and a high power resistor placed in series to provide helpful in controlling the discharge of the spark gap when higher current levels are encountered.

Once the GTCR38-351M-R10-FS has been subjected to a surge event, it must be monitored and allowed to discharge any residual energy. This is typically done by a thyristor connected directly to the device. The thyristor then monitors the discharged current and could disconnect it from the line if necessary.

The GTCR38-351M-R10-FS is primarily designed for use in overhead power transmission lines, offering highly reliable and cost-effective protection against high and destructive voltage surges caused by lightning. This gas discharge tube arrester is also capable of taking high-current surges due to its combination of series and shunt elements, making it especially suitable for industrial and power-based applications.

The GTCR38-351M-R10-FS offers excellent surge protection in both dry and wet environments, making it suitable for outdoor use. It is also designed to be maintenance-free, resulting in low ownership costs. As an added benefit, the device itself is designed as a unit which is easy to install and remove for maintenance.

In conclusion, The GTCR38-351M-R10-FS is one of the most reliable and effective solutions for surge protection. It offers excellent performance in both dry and wet environments and is designed to be maintenance-free, reducing ownership costs. With its combination of series and shunt elements, the device is especially suitable for industrial and power-based applications, making it one of the best choices in its field.
