The voltage is highest across the transformer equivalent,
0
reaching just above 2 kV, and this voltage is unaffected by
arresters in the system. At load position 2, the voltage is -500
limited by the surge arrester, and at the other positions 3-6 -1000
the voltage is below the protective level of the arrester. The -1500
voltage across the transformer in Fig. 8 is higher than -2000
across load in position 2 due to the lower grounding -2500
impedance of the transformer.
