English term

distribution class lightning arrester

English to Japanese Tech/Engineering Energy / Power Generation
Not much context available - the term appears in a bullet point: "the switch includes distribution class lightning arresters". "The switch" here refers to a 遮断機 for a transformer.

I know that "lightning arrester" translates to 避雷器, but what would be a good translation for "distribution class"? The only translation I can find for it is the one for a linguistics term...

配電用避雷器

I found 'distribution class' in the context of '配電用がいし'. Please refer to the webpage of TOSHIBA for '配電用避雷器'
Note from asker:
Thanks, that's a good lead! I wonder if I should change 「配電用」 to 「配電式」, as it seems "distribution class" here describes a type of arrester rather than its purpose...

agree Roger Johnson : No you should leave it as 配電用
