Requirement
Varistor voltage
The voltage between two terminals with To meet the specified value
the specified measuring current applied
is called VV (1 mADC @ 0.2 ... 2 s).
Clamping voltage
The maximum voltage between two
terminals with the specified standard
impulse current (8/20 µs) applied.
To meet the specified value
Endurance at upper
category temperature
1000 h at UCT
|∆V/V (1 mA)| ≤10%
After having continuously applied the
maximum allowable AC voltage at UCT
±2 °C for 1000 h, the specimen shall be
stored at room temperature and normal
humidity for 1 to 2 h.
Thereafter, the change of VV shall be
measured.

Surge current derating, 10 surge currents (2 ms), unipolar,
|∆V/V (1 mA)| ≤10%
2 ms
interval 120 s, amplitude corresponding
to derating curve for 10 impulses at 2 ms
(measured in direction of
surge current)
No visible damage

Electric strength
IEC 61051-1, test 4.9.2
Metal balls method, 2500 VRMS, 60 s
The varistor is placed in a container
holding 1.6 ±0.2 mm diameter metal
balls such that only the terminations of
the varistor are protruding.
The specified voltage shall be applied
between both terminals of the specimen
connected together and the electrode
inserted between the metal balls.
