VcmA : Actual varistor voltage
Short circuit the two leads of varistor, and put the varistor body into lead balls (1.6mm
diameter) leaving 2mm epoxy coating outside. Then, apply 2.5kVrms between the leads and
the lead balls for 60P5 seconds.

Operation
Subject varistor to the following tempmrature cycles. -40C for 30 minutes Normal room
temperature for 10 minutes 85C for 30 minutes Normal room temperature for 10 minutes.
This completes one cycle. The cycle shall be repeated 5 times total. After the cycles, the
varistor shall be stored at normal room temperature for one hour. Then check the varistor
voltage and the appearance.
Store varistor at 125C for 1,000 hours. After that, store the varistor at normal room
temperature for one hour. Then check the varistor voltage.
Store at 40C, 90K95% RH for 1,000 hours. After that, store the varistor at normal room
temperature for one hour. Then check the varistor voltage.
Apply maximum applied voltage to varistor at 85C for 1,000 hours. After that, store the varistor
at normal room temperature for one hour. Then check the varistor voltage.
