TiC-Ti-Al mixed powders and TC4 titanium alloy foils were overlapped layer-by-layer in the graphite die. The TC4-based laminated composite sheets reinforced by Ti aluminide and carbide were successfully fabricated via spark plasma sintering (SPS) at 1100 °C with a well-bonded interface. The composite layers were mainly composed of TiAl, Ti₃Al, Ti₂AlC, and Ti₃AlC₂ phases. The carbides particles ...

This paper present an evaluation of overvoltages in low-voltage LV installation in buildings in cases of direct lightning strikes to overhead medium voltage lines. The study considered typical power systems with lowand medium voltage surge arresters. The calculation have been performed using the EMPTATP

Transient voltage surge suppressors are characterized from the point of view of electric utilities wishing to ofler to their customers a comprehensive surgeprotection plan. This plan involves a surge arrester installed at the service enlrme and one or more plug-in suppressors installed within Me premises, at the point of connection of a surge-sensitive appliance. Complementary tests were conduc...
