Abstract :
Transient overvoltages or surges generated by the most varied of causes, frequently occur in mains voltage networks. Particularly energy-rich are the surges that result when a fuse blows. Such transients have pulse widths extending into the region of milliseconds. These transients containing very high energy could damage electronic equipment
