Test Test methods/conditions Requirement
Varistor voltage The voltage between two terminals with
the specified measuring current applied
is called V
V
(1 mA
DC
@ 0.2 ... 2 s).
To meet the specified value
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
100 h at UCT
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 chance of V
V
shall be
measured.
