This standard applies to metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate that an arrester can survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system phenomena while protecting equipment and/or the system from damaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, and other undesirable surges.

60099-11 Surge Arresters - Part 11: Metal-Oxide Line Surge Arresters to Protect Power Line Insulation
This standard defines the design/type tests, routine test, acceptance tests and classifications for line surge arresters (LSA). The arresters covered by this standard are Non-Gapped Line Arresters (NGLA) and Externally Gapped Line Arresters (EGLA) for use on AC or DC transmission and distribution power lines with system voltages > 1kV.
PC62.11
Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits (>1 kV)
This standard applies to metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment.
C62.11-2020
IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits (>1 kV)
Metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current are addressed in this standard. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate that an arrester is able to survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system phenomena while protecting equipment and/or the system from damaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, and other undesirable surges.
C62.11-1987
IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits
Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current are discussed. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to those supplied integrally with other equipment.
C62.11-1993
IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for Alternating Current Power Circuits
Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48-Hz to 62-Hz power circuits by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current,are discussed. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to those supplied integrally with other equipment.
C62.11-1999
IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for Alternating Current Power Circuits (>1KV)
Superseded by IEEE Std C62.11-2005. Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48u201362 Hz power circuits (>1 kV) are covered in this standard. These devices operate by discharging surge current. Devices for separate mounting and those supplied integrally with other equipment are also discussed.
C62.11-2012
IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits (>1 kV)
Metal-oxide surge arresters (MOSAs) designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (> 1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current are addressed in this standard. This standard applies to devices for separate mounting and to devices supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate that an arrester is able to survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system phenomena while protecting equipment and/or the system from damaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, and other undesirable surges.
C62.11a-2008
IEEE Standard for Metal-Oxide Surge Arresters for AC Power Circuits (>1 kV) Amendment 1: Short-Circuit Tests for Station, Intermediate, and Distribution Arresters
Metal-oxide surge arresters designed to repeatedly limit the voltage surges on 48 Hz to 62 Hz power circuits (>1000 V) by passing surge discharge current and automatically limiting the flow of system power current applies to this amendment. This amendment covers devices for separate mounting and to those supplied integrally with other equipment. The tests demonstrate that an arrester can survive the rigors of reasonable environmental conditions and system phenomena, while, at the same time, protect equipment and/or the system from damaging overvoltages caused by lightning, switching, or other undesirable surges.
