lightning arrester is a device used in electrical systems to protect equipment and structures from lightning strikes and overvoltage conditions by diverting the high voltage surge to the ground. It's commonly installed in power distribution and transmission systems, substations, and even on buildings and communication towers
Rod Gap Arrester : Simple design with a gap between electrodes—used in early systems but less reliable.
Expulsion Type Arrester : Uses gas expulsion to interrupt the arc; common in medium voltage systems.
Valve Type Arrester : Uses nonlinear resistors (like silicon carbide) to limit voltage; now outdated.
Metal Oxide Varistor Arrester : Most widely used today; employs zinc oxide blocks for excellent performance and fast response.

Lightning Arresters
Atlas Engineering an Electrical engineering Division forms a major strategic business unit of Atlas Engineering GROUP. Set up in Gujarat, serves the Electrical Power Protection and Control needs of Transmission and Distribution Systems by manufacturing Lightning Arresters and Instrument Transformers which are primary protection against atmospheric and switching over voltages Lightning Arrester. most important features of active lightning, where they are established, an effective protection in a circular area hashes lightning. We also provide other make of lightning arrester, as per our customer's requirement
Lightning arresters are installed on many different pieces of equipment such as power poles and towers, power transformers, circuit breakers, bus structures, and steel superstructures in substations. A substation is a high-voltage electric facility containing equipment to regulate and distribute electrical energy. While some substations are small with little more than a transformer and associated switches, other substations are large and complex. Lighting Arresters are protective devices for limiting surge voltages due to lightning strikes or equipment faults or other events, to prevent damage to equipment and disruption of service. Also called surge arresters.
