Lightning arrestors limit the crest value of an impulse
voltage. When the voltage reaches a pre-determined value it
provides a discharge path to ground. It provides
a "Spillover Effect" while the Surge Capacitors reduce the
slope of the surge (rate of voltage rise) by momentarily
absorbing initial energy, then releasing it; providing
a "Dampening Effect

oltc of a transformer, how it works? and what are the equipment consist of describe briefly?
I have 2500KVA transformer delta/star,13.8KV/380V provided with LV 4000A breaker. Already I have 2300KW motor feeder with a full load 90%. Is it possible to connect another 1600A from that breaker? If so how the calculation is done?
