Abstract
An arrester system has at least two parallel-connected arresters, each with a sensor for determining leakage currents. A monitoring system is configured to detect faults at the arresters by comparing sensor data. The method for detecting faults at parallel-connected arresters includes comparing in particular the present measured values of the arresters and/or from sensors of the arresters. A fault is detected when there are deviations between measured values of different arresters. The arrester system is identified as fault-free when measured values of the arresters, in particular of all arresters, are substantially the same.
