An alternative 22kV surge arrestor is now available to address a current supply shortage
What is happening?
As an interim solution to a current supply shortage of 22kV surge arrestors, Essential Energy has approved an alternative arrestor that has the same system voltage, but a slightly higher rating and length.
Due to its longer in length, there is potential to confuse this alternative arrestor with a 33kV arrestor. To clearly identify the alternative 22kV arrestor, we’re attaching a black and yellow label to it.
Availability of standard 22kV arrestors should return to normal around mid-2024.
What do you need to do?
- Please ensure you use the correct system voltage arrestors when working on Essential Energy’s network.
- Communicate this information to relevant members of your organisation.
