Abstract: Systems for disconnecting a surge arrester. One embodiment provides a surge arrester comprising a housing, a connecting interface configured to connect to an electrical power grid, and a disconnector device coupled to the connecting interface. A metal oxide varistor stack is coupled to the disconnector device, and a ground side connection is coupled to the metal oxide varistor stack, the ground side connection configured to connect to a system ground. The disconnector device is configured to disconnect the connecting interface from the system ground based on a predetermined disconnection condition.

Abstract: A surge arrester device comprising a first housing portion including a first end and a second end, the first end including a first opening and the second end including a second opening. The device includes a first axis parallel to the first housing portion, the first axis intersecting a first center of the first opening and a second center of the second opening, and a second axis perpendicular to the first housing portion, the second axis intersecting an intermediate section of the first housing portion. The device includes a second housing portion protruding from the intermediate section of the first housing portion, the second housing portion protruding at an angle between the first axis and the second axis, and a metal oxide varistor (MOV) stack within the second housing portion, wherein the MOV stack is released through an opening of the second housing portion if the arrester faults to ground.

Abstract: A loadbreak bushing including a housing with a bore extending along the longitudinal axis from a first end of the housing toward a second end of the housing. The bore has a first end positioned at or adjacent the first end of the housing and a second end opposite the first end of the bore. A first electrical contact is positioned within the bore adjacent the second end and is configured to be in electrical communication with an electrical component. The first electrical contact is configured to be physically and electrically coupled to a second electrical contact of a power connection. An arc quenching member is positioned within the bore between the first end of the bore and the first electrical contact. A resistive member is coupled to either the first electrical contact or the arc quenching member.
