well as Type 1 surge protectors.
The Specialist in
Overvoltage Protection
CITELs sole focus is protecting sensitive networks and
equipment from transient overvoltages originating from
lightning strikes and other power quality distrubances.
For this reason, CITEL manufactures two complimentary
products lines:
- Gas Discharge Tubes (or GDTs) are passive components used
to protect telecom equipment from voltage surges.
- Surge Protection Devices (or SPDs) are component
assemblies or standalone devices combining several
protection components. SPDs are designed to be integrated
into an existing installation to protect all electric, electronic, and
data-processing equipment from transient overvoltages.
Transient Overvoltages
Users of electronic equipment and telecom or data-processing systems are
faced with the challenge of operating effectively and safely in environments
that are at high risk for transient overvoltages.
There are several reasons these environments are high risk and require
protection:
Integration of many smaller electronic components increases vulnerability
Interruption of service has become unacceptable
Data transmission networks cover larger areas and are more exposed to
line disturbances
Lightning
Lightning, studied since Benjamin Franklins first research in 1749, has
become a growing threat to our highly electronic society.
Lightning Formation
A lightning flash is generated between two zones of opposite charge,
typically between two storm clouds or between one cloud and the ground.
The flash may travel several miles, advancing toward the ground in
successive leaps. The leader creates a highly ionized channel. When it
reaches the ground, the real flash or return stroke takes place. A current
in the tens of thousands of amperes will then travel from ground to cloud
or vice versa via the ionized channel.
Direct Effects
At the moment of the discharge, there is an impulse current flow that
can range from 1,000 to 200,000 amperes in only a few microseconds.
This direct effect, with very large current levels, poses only a small risk
in damaging electric and electronic systems because it is very localized
and generally only impacts the physical structure conducting the event.
The best protection is still the classic lightning rod or Lightning Protection
System (LPS) designed to capture the discharge current and conduct it
safely to ground.
Indirect Effects
There are three types of indirect electrical effects :
Impact on Overhead Lines
Overhead power lines are highly exposed in nature and may be struck directly
by lightning. The resulting transient can either partially or completely
destroy the power line before sending a high voltage surge down the
conductors to line-connected equipment. The extent of the damage depends
on the distance between the lightning strike and the sensitive equipment.
Rise in Ground Potential
The flow of lightning in the ground causes the potential of the earth to
rise according to the intensity of the discharge current and the local earth
impedance. In an installation that may be connected to several grounds
(e.g. a link between buildings), a strike will cause a very large potential
difference and equipment connected to the affected networks will be
destroyed or severely disrupted.
Electromagnetic Radiation
The flash may be thought of as an antenna several miles high carrying
an impulse current of several thousands of amperes while radiating an
intense electromagnetic field (several kV/m at more than 1 km).
These fields induce strong voltages and currents in power or signal lines
near or on equipment. The values depend on the distance from the flash
and the properties of the connection.

NEMP Phenomena
(Nuclear ElectroMagnetic Pulses)
A high-altitude nuclear explosion can create an intense electromagnetic
field (up to 50 kV/m in 10ns) that will radiate down to the ground affecting
an area of up to 1200 kilometers in radius.
This field induces very large transient overvoltages into the power
lines, transmission lines, and antennas destroying connected sensitive
electronic equipment.
The field may reach several kV/ns. While it is difficult to eliminate all
overvoltages induced by an electromagnetic pulse, there are ways to
reduce them and strengthen the systems to be protected. In spite of the
amplitude of the phenomenon, protection can be provided by shielding
and filtering surge protectors adapted to NEMP.
Effects of Overvoltages
Overvoltages have many types of effects on electronic equipment:
Destruction
Breakdown of semiconductor junctions
Destruction of bonding of components
Destruction of tracks of PCBs or contacts
Destruction of triacs/thyristors by dV/dt
Interference with Operation
Random operation of latches, thyristors, and triacs
Erasure of memory
Program errors or crashes
Data and transmission errors
Premature Aging
Components exposed to overvoltages will have a shorter life
Industrial Surges
This term covers the phenomena caused by switching electric power
sources on or off.
Industrial surges are caused by:
Starting motors or transformers
Neon and sodium light starters
Switching power networks
Switch bounce in an inductive circuit
Operation of fuses and circuit-breakers
Falling power lines
These phenomena can generate transients of several kV with rise times of
only a few microseconds. These events can disturb sensitive equipment in
networks that are connected to the source of the disturbance.
Electrostatic Overvoltages (ESD)
Electrically, a human being has a capacitance ranging from 100 to 300
picofarads, and can pick up a charge of as much as 15kV by walking on a
carpet then touching a conductive object. This potential can be discharged
in a few nanoseconds with a current of about ten amperes. Integrated
circuits are very vulnerable to this kind of disturbance, but the threat can
easily be eliminated with proper shielding and grounding.
The Surge Protection Device (or SPD) is a generic name for any device to
protect against transient surges. It is a recognized and effective solution
for the overvoltage phenomena. To be most effective, the SPD must be
carefully chosen for the risk factor of the installation and installed in
accordance with the applicable national or local electrical standards.
Standards
Because of the diversity and importance of transients, standards
organizations have created specifications for testing the effects of
overvoltages on equipment.
The phenomena were first characterized by engineering standards that
defined the environment for surges and where they could be found. These
standards produced the 1.2/50s voltage waveform, 8/20s and 10/350s
current waveforms. These are an integral part of many of the standards
including:

VG Technology by CITEL
In order to improve the efficiency of a surge protector, CITEL has
developed a patented technology which combines a high energy
varistor (MOV) network and a specic Gas-Filled Spark Gap (GSG).
This specialized circuit incorporated in the VG surge protectors
(DS150VG, DS250VG, DUT250VG, DS40VG) can achieve best in class
performance for:
- Protection level
- Life expectancy
- Continuous operation
- End of life behavior
These features allow the VG SPD to outperform the same protection
efficiency as a two stage device (see page 13).
Protection Level - Up
Residual voltage of the surge protector during an 8/20 s current
impulse waveform (at the maximum In or Iimp declared current
value) or with a 1.2/50 s impulse using a 6kV voltage waveform.
Protection Level at In - Up-In
Residual voltage of the surge protector during an 8/20 s current
waveform impulse at a determined (In or Iimp) value. This value will
be lower than the Up Protection level for all SPDs incorporating VG
technology.
Short Circuits Capability - Isccr
The surge protection and its associated disconnector (fuse or circuit
breaker) are tested at a maximal short circuit current value. This
Isccr value must be higher than the available short circuit current of
the network at the installation point.
Follow Current Extinction Capability - Ifi
This parameter is only devoted to surge protectors using air gap
technology. Once they have fired, these surge protectors conduct part
of the network current (follow current) and need to interrupt it.
AC power surge protectors are split into 3 categories by the IEC 6164311 and EN 61643-11 standards based on the following 3 classes of tests.
These different tests depend on the location of the surge protector in
the AC network and on external conditions.

Wiring
Since lightning surges are essentially common-mode phenomena,
DS Series surge protectors are connected mainly in common mode
(between the phase conductors and ground).
Some specifications call for additional differential-mode protection
(between phase conductors and the neutral conductor). For these
applications, CITEL offers a specific GSG version using a gas-filled
spark gap module for the neutral to ground (common mode) protection
mode. This type of installation is called a CT2 connection in the IEC
60364 standard and is used in surge protectors such as the DS44-230/G.

Installation
DS Series surge protectors are connected in parallel to the AC network
and should be equipped with external fuses (or circuit breakers) for
short-circuit protection (see paragraph titled Disconnection Devices).
The total length of the connected leads to the AC network must be
less than 1.5 ft (0.5 m) in order to maintain the stated protection level
(Up) of the SPD.
The wiring connections are made by screw terminal connectors. On
some models, a distribution bus can be used.
The ground connection coming from the SPD must be connected to
the grounding bar of the electrical panel.
The cross sectional area of the wire leads must be at least 6 mm for

Overview
Several technologies currently exist on the market for surge protection
for AC or DC power networks:
Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV)
Air Gap + Trigger
MOV + Gas-Filled Spark Gap (GSG)
VG Technology
This technology is the exclusive and patented technology of CITEL. It
is based on the use of specific types of Gas-filled Spark Gaps (GSG) in
combination with MOVs. This technology is the result of over 75 years
of experience in the gas discharge tube field. Their specialized GSGs
provide both robust surge handling and operational stability.
Advantages of VG Technology
CITEL VG surge protectors use specific Gas-Filled Spark Gaps (GSGs). These components are the result of over 75
years of experience in the gas discharge tube field. They are designed specifically for AC and DC power networks and
ensure maximum electrical stability.
Increase Reliability
2. Very Low Residual Voltage and Very High Surge Current Capability
GSGs are able to conduct very high surge currents (Iimp, Imax) with a very low residual voltage (Up). Such
characteristics could only previously be reached with the combination of a Type 1 and a Type 2 surge protector.
Equivalent to Type 1+2+3 or 2+3 Solutions
Maximum Efficiency
Compact Design
VG surge protectors can withstand a very high TOV level of up to 450 Vac for a 220/380 Vac system without any
degradation to the protection level.
Increased Reliability for Unstable Power Networks
13
4. No Follow Current
Unlike Air Gap technologies, VG Technology does not create any follow current.
VG increases service continuity by not tripping the upstream overcurrent protection devices during surge events.
Increases Network Uptime
All the components of the VG surge protector are designed to handle high impulse discharge currents without any
assistance from auxiliary systems. In contrast, the traditional Triggered Air Gap technology relies on a control circuit,
using very low power components, which are required to handle part of the surge current. During some low amplitude,
low voltage transients, this weak trigger circuit will handle the full amount of current and can fail.
Increase Reliability
Better Life Expectancy
VG surge protectors use a very safe thermal disconnection system and provide real-time status indication of internal
components. For Triggered Air Gap technology, the disconnection and signalization only can provide the status of the
trigger control circuit and not the main protection circuit.
Safe and Efficient Maintenance
During normal operation, varistors are always conducting a small amount of current called working current (Ic) and
leakage current (Ipe) due to the varistors connection to the grounding system. This type of conduction can be stressful
to the varistor over time, and can cause the varistor to age prematurely. VG technology eliminates both working and
leakage current.
Maximum Life
In the case of coordinated installations, the surge protector downstream of a VG surge protector does not need any
special consideration. A sufficient distance between locations is not required to ensure a working coordination between
multiple SPDs. Note: due to its optimized protection level, the VG surge protector can be used without any additional
surge protectors.
Easier to Configure
CITEL s VG technology offers the highest level of efficiency and reliability, conditions essential for
achieving the maximum performance of your surge protection system.

Choosing Iimp
The Lightning Impulse Current (Iimp) rating is required for Type 1 SPDs.
The minimum surge current rating for Iimp is 12.5 kA 10/350 s per
pole following IEC 60364-5-534 . This level is consistent with real life
expectations. CITEL offers two levels of Iimp current ratings in Type 1
SPD products : 12.5kA 10/350 s and 25 kA 10/350 s.

Choosing the Up
The user must select a surge protector with a protection level or Up
below the withstand level of the sensitive equipment. The lower the Up,
the better the protection.
IEC 60364 standard calls for the minimum protection level of 2.5 kV for
an SPD connected at the entrance of a 230/400 V network. This level
is in compliance with the withstand level of a very robust device, like
electromechanical equipment.
Electronic-based equipment has lower impulse withstand capability and
requires better protection. Surge protectors with a 1.5 kV protection
level are necessary to provide efficient protection.

A more accurate analysis can be done taking into account the type
of equipment, sensitivity and cost, or the consequences of a service
interruption, downtime costs, and human hazard. The international
standard IEC 61662 recommends a comprehensive method for

CITEL surge protectors for Type 2 applications are generally offered with
replaceable modules.
Surge protectors tested as Type 3 SPDs are intended to be installed
directly in front of sensitive equipment and coordinated with an upstream
type 2 surge protector.
Note: the installation guide UTE C15-443 and Articles 443 and 534 of the NF C15-100
only consider SPDs Type 1 and Type 2.

Protection of PV Installation
The photovoltaic grid-connected low voltage power lines may be
subject to overvoltages on different networks:
AC network: Surge protectors are necessary, and in most cases,
mandatory on the AC output of the PV inverter which is connected
back to the AC power grid.
DC network: Surge protectors are required or mandatory on the
input of the PV inverter or the output of PV modules.
Low current network: If the PV inverter is connected to low voltage
signal lines (probes, sensors, monitoring) then SPD devices are
highly recommended.

AC Surge Protectors
Hard-Wired Units and Combiner Boxes
CITEL offers a line of surge protectors for the single and three phase
AC networks connected to sensitive equipment. These products are
available in various formats including:
Hard-wired units single-phase (MSB, MLP)
Hard-wired units in NEMA enclosure (M & MDS series)
MSB Series
A family of SPDs Type 2 or 3 provides effective protection for very
sensitive equipment and can be combined with upstream protectors
to provide coordinated protection. The ideal installation location of an
SPD is very close to sensitive equipment and more than 10 meters from
an upstream protector. CITEL surge protectors utilize a compact and
economical design based on varistors that obtain a high surge capacity
compared to other secondary protectors. All SPDs are designed in
accordance with the NF EN 61643-11 and UL 1449 3rd edition standard
that requires an internal thermal disconnect to safely remove the SPD
from the network at its end of life. The operating status of the SPD is
indicated by an LED (or buzzer for version MSB6). They are available in
screw terminal connectors or hard-wired.
MDS Series
The MDS series of surge protectors are devices for single or three phase
low voltage electrical installations up to 480VAC. These units are based
on the use of modular surge protectors like the DS Series. They are
equipped with surge protection and an EMI/RFI filtering option.
MLP Series
Compact surge protectors designed for the protection of equipment
particularly vulnerable to transient overvoltages. The complete range
offers numerous configurations:
67
M Series
These standalone NEMA enclosures are AC surge protectors that have
been specifically designed for standards, networks and installations in
North America.
They are available in single, split or three phase configurations and are
equipped with various diagnostic options. Housed in a NEMA 4 metal
enclosure, these surge protectors are available in various per phase
surge capacities (Imax of 80, 100, 160 and 200 kA).

TELECOM
Surge Protectors
75
Telecom devices are becoming more complex and sensitive, and also
share a common grounding connection with other pieces of equipment
on the network. This situation increases the risk for these sensitive
devices being stressed by destructive surges induced by lightning or by
electrical switching operations.

Mechanical Configurations
Surge protectors for telecom networks are designed to fit into existing
installations. CITEL surge protectors are available with many different
mounting options:
Mounting on a telecom MDF
Mounting on a DIN rail
Insertion to connection strips
Wall mounting
Plug-in on termination outlets
The decision whether or not to use surge protection should be
determined by taking a simple risk assessment (see risk analysis
paragraph), or by detailed risk assessment (part of the IEC 61643-22
standard), or by analyzing the specific installation conditions per the
table below:
Conditions
Recommendation
Systematic protection
Protection in long or inter-building
lines

All of CITELs telecom surge protectors are based on a reliable multistage hybrid design that combines the benefits of high discharge current
capacity with fast response time.

Maintenance
CITELs telecom surge protectors are designed to withstand repeated
and large impulse currents without damage nor destruction. However
a controlled fail-safe mode (short circuit to ground) is built in, in case of
surges exceeding the parameters of the surge protectors:
Protective short-circuit occurs in the following cases :
- Sustained contact between the telecom line and a power line.
- Exceptionally large lightning impulse current.
In these rare cases, the surge protectors will purposely go into a shortcircuit, cutting the signal. This feature is to ensure the protection of the
terminal equipment and signals its failure to the user. To reactivate the
line the surge protector must be replaced.
The basic parameters of the surge protector for telecom can be controlled
with dedicated testers.

Surge Protectors
91
Configuration
CITEL Surge protectors for video transmission are designed to support
these many configurations:
Analog Camera:
The MSP-VM-2P combines analog video and power supply protection
into a single unit. The CNP series is a coaxial protector with
integrated DC pass capabilities.
CITEL surge protectors for Local Area Networks (LANs) are based on
the combination of 3-pole gas tubes and fast clamping diodes to ensure
protection against lightning surges.
When specifying a SPD, two key parameters need to be taken into
consideration, the voltage level and the data transmission speed of
the application. The CITEL surge protectors for data networks are
specifically designed for both of these requirements.
Mechanical Configuration
Surge protectors for data-processing networks are designed to fit into
an existing installation. As such, the surge protectors are equipped with
standard connectors and are available in either a single enclosure to
protect terminal equipment or in a 19 rack to protect at the distribution
level.
MSP-VM-2P
CNP
IP Camera:
The MSP-VM/R combines Ethernet and power supply protection in
a single unit.
MSP-VM/R
Performance
Ethernet network surge protectors are designed for networks with
very fast data transfer speeds, up to 1 Gbit/s for Category 6 networks.
In order to support the many various types of networking applications,
CITEL offers a complete range of surge protectors.
Category 5 and 5E
Category 6
PoE mode A & B

Tip: For the best contact carefully remove all paint and insulation
coatings.
Location of the protectors: SPDs should be placed at the entrance
of the installation to limit the propagation of lightning currents
and also near sensitive equipment to enhance overall protection.

Types of Mounting
Feedthrough Mounting
Direct mounting of the surge protector on the grounded frame at the
installation entrance is the recommended mounting:
- Perfect connection to the bonding network
- Best location (conduction of the surge currents at the entrance of
the installation)
- The most secure placement; able to withstand movement, vibration,
and stress
Alternative Mounting
- Connection to the bonding network by wire (4 mm minimum and
shortest length possible).
Additional grounding
measures are necessary if the panel is
poorly grounded

Operation
The gas discharge tube operates like an extremely fast switch having
conduction properties that can change rapidly. This happens when a
breakdown occurs from open-circuit to quasi-short circuit. There are
four operating states in the behavior of a gas discharge tube:
Passive State: This is characterized by practically infinite insulation
resistance across the electrodes.
Glow State: At the breakdown point the conductance increases
suddenly across the electrodes. If the current drained off by the gas
tube is less than 0.5A the glow voltage across the terminals will be
in the 80-100V range.
Arc State: As the current increases the gas discharge tube shifts
from the glow voltage to the arc voltage. It is in this state that the
gas discharge tube is most effective because the current discharged
can reach several thousand amperes without the arc voltage across
the electrodes increasing.
Extinction: At a bias voltage roughly equal to the glow voltage the
gas tube recovers its initial insulating properties.
Electrical Characteristics
The main electrical characteristics defining a gas discharge tube are:
DC sparkover voltage (Volts)
Impulse sparkover voltage (Volts)
Discharge current capacity (kA)
Insulation resistance (Gohms)
Capacitance (pF).
DC Sparkover Voltage
This is the main characteristic defining the gas discharge tube.
It is the voltage at which breakdown will occur between the electrodes
when a slowly increasing voltage (dV/dt = 100 V/s) is applied. This voltage
will be based on: the electrode spacing, the pressure of the gas, and the
properties of the gas mixture and of the emissive substance.
Range of DC sparkover voltages available:
minimum 75V
average 230V

3-Electrode Configuration
Protecting a two-wire line with two 2-electrode gas discharge tubes
(connected between the wires and ground) may cause the following
problem:
The line is subjected to an overvoltage in common mode because
of the dispersion of the sparkover voltages ( 20%), one of the gas
discharge tubes can spark over a very short time before the other.
The wire connected to the gas discharge tube is therefore grounded,
turning the common-mode overvoltage into a differential-mode
overvoltage. This is very dangerous for the terminal equipment. This
risk would disappear when the second gas discharge tube arcs over a
few microseconds later.
Standards
CITEL gas discharge tubes comply with specifications of the main
telecom operators (AT&T, France Telecom, and British Telecom) and
with the ITU-T K12 international recommendations and standards IEC
61643-31x as well as UL497B.
GSG Series
CITEL has developed a specific technology known as GSG (GasFilled Spark Gap). GSGs are designed to be used on DC or AC
power networks. GSGs have an increased extinction capability and a
higher current discharge capability with both a 8/20s and 10/350s
waveform.
The GSG component is the heart of the VG technology which provides
industry leading performance.
End of life
Gas discharge tubes are designed to withstand several impulses
without destruction or loss of the initial characteristics (typical
impulse tests: 10 times at 5 kA impulses on each polarity).
A sustained strong current, for example a 10 A rms for 15 seconds,
simulating the fall of a AC power line onto a telecommunication line,
can cause an end of life scenario.
If a fail-safe end of life is desired, CITEL offers gas discharge tube
with the fail-safe feature of an external short-circuit.
