Abstract

The authors have investigated the coordination between the SPD in a panel-board and the SPD components of an electric household appliance. Experimental results clarified the following items. Installing a SPD in a panel-board can reduce the capacity of SPDC(surge protective device components) in an electric household appliance. Depending upon the position of a grounding terminal of the SPD in a panel-board, the SPDC in an electric household appliance may operate. The V-I characteristics of the SPDs in the panel-board and the SPD components have the important roles for deciding the peak value of flowing current and the waveforms of it. And we can control the flowing current of SPDC in an electric household appliance by adjusting the V-I characteristics of the SPD in a panel-board.
