FAQ0083 ZNR Surge Absorber: Does the ZNR surge absorber delay in starting operation in response to an incoming surge voltage?

Answer

Having continuous voltage/current characteristics, the ZNR surge absorber makes no such switching actions as a discharge tube type (gas discharge tube or GDT) surge absorber does. Therefore, the ZNR surge absorber has no specific point of starting its operation; that is, it starts operating at any point of time without delay.
