FIELD: electrical engineering. SUBSTANCE: surge arrester has discharge unit placed in encapsulated gas-tight case; novelty is that encapsulated case accommodates surface-wave sensor and functions as antenna. Method for monitoring surge arrester includes measurement of stepwise temperature fluctuations by means of surface-wave sensor inside encapsulated case. EFFECT: facilitated check of arrester for serviceability and degree of aging. 6 cl, 6 dwg
