Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT), otherwise known as spark gap arresters, are protective devices designed to prevent damage to electronic equipment that is connected to AC power lines due to over-voltages caused by lightning and other power events. They are usually used to protect sensitive equipment such as data centers and communication systems.

GTCS36-251M-R10-2 is one type of GDT arrester. It is a three-phase, 10 kV class arrestor that is designed for use either individually, or in series with other GDT arrestors. It is typically used in high-voltage and medium voltage installations, such as substations, lines, industrial plants, wind turbines, and others.

The GTCS36-251M-R10-2 is designed to pass normal AC power signals through to the connected equipment while providing a low resistance path for overvoltages. It is this low resistance path that protects the connected equipment by "bleeding off" the excess voltage, thus preventing damage from occurring. It can handle up to a 10 kilovolt surge for 200 microseconds.

The working principle of the GTCS36-251M-R10-2 GDT arrester involves the creation of a spark gap, which is formed between the two metal plates inside the device. When a voltage surge is detected, the electrons jump across the spark gap, creating a high-resistance current path. This high-resistance current path dissipates the excess voltage, protecting the connected equipment from harm.

The GTCS36-251M-R10-2 GDT arrester also includes a surge absorbing element, which is designed to further protect the device. This surge absorbing element will activate when the voltage surge exceeds a certain level, and absorb the excess voltage, in a similar manner to a fuse.

The primary application of the GTCS36-251M-R10-2 GDT arrester is as part of a lightning protection system. Lightning protection systems are designed to provide protection for sensitive electronic equipment from voltage surges caused by external sources such as lightning strikes. The GTCS36-251M-R10-2 is typically used in conjunction with other equipment such as surge diverters, which will absorb the highest voltage surges and dissipate them safely before they can reach the protected equipment.

The GTCS36-251M-R10-2 GDT arrester can also be used in industrial power and power distribution systems to protect sensitive electronic equipment from higher voltage surges caused by short circuits, power switching, and other power events. In industrial power systems, GDT arresters can be used to protect sensitive equipment such as motors, transformers, relays, and other components that may be vulnerable to damage from voltage spikes.

The GTCS36-251M-R10-2 GDT arrester is a robust and reliable device designed to protect electronic equipment from voltage surges caused by lightning strikes and other power events. With its low resistance path, surge absorbing element, and robust construction, the GTCS36-251M-R10-2 is an excellent choice for applications that require a high-performance protective device.
