Typical VI Characteristic

This document contains an Excel-based tool from ArresterWorks.com for selecting surge arrester types based on voltage and current characteristics. It displays a table of typical voltage-current values for different arrester types and classes. The user can enter a desired voltage class and the tool will calculate the initial current and voltage for that class.
