Terminology

Vw(DC) - Maximum Continuous DC Voltage with which the waveform is flat. When a ripple voltage is supplied as
from a rectifier source, make sure that the peak voltage is kept under the Vdcm.
Vw(ac) - Maximum Continuous AC Voltage from a sine-wave shape. When the distortion in the waveform is
extensive, make sure that the peak voltage is less than times the Vw(AC)

The varistor terminal voltage which measured with supplying 1 DC current.

The peak terminal voltage which measured with an 8/20 impulse of a given peak current

Transient Energy Rating Specified Peak Current & Waveform

0.05J 1A 8/20

0.1J 2A 8/20

0.2~0.3J 5A 8/20

0.4J 10A 8/20

Maximum single peak current which is based on 8/20 current wave shape, without the device failure

Maximum single peak current which is based on 10/1000 current wave shape, without the device failure

The Capacitance measured at a specified frequency 1MHz and zero voltage bias with 0.5Vrms
