Abstract :
We developed Current Limiting Arcing Horn (CLAH) for 22kV power distribution line. A lot of composite type lightning protection devices including CLAH are adopted for 6.6kV power line in Japan. This CLAH is the first lightning protection device, which used MOV, on 22kV distribution line in Japan. This product will contribute to be decreasing outages for 22kV distribution line.
