Service Entrance Protection Coordination
Investigate arrester application issues at secondary service entrances, specifically with regard to the overvoltage coordination between service entrance arresters and utility equipment. The results will:
- Define whether service entrance protection may be applied without performing secondary surge mitigation.
- Specify any steps needed to counteract an increase in utility equipment stress.
- Indicate the application circumstances (e.g. grounding conditions, transformer type) where mitigation is necessary.
