This paper presents a detailed mechanical analysis of the high-strength surge arrestor PCA New Design for 2L+2L and other variations under cantilever loading. The study aims to evaluate the mechanical properties of the design and identify any issues or areas for improvement. The analysis includes the use of various models to simulate the behavior of the design under different loading conditions.

Given that PCA is a high-strength surge arrestor, the study focuses on the mechanical properties of the design, including stress and displacement. The Type3 and Type4 models are compared, with the Type4 model showing higher deflection and more accurate simulation results. The study also includes the Type6 model, which incorporates a strap design to improve the mechanical properties of the design. The T6 model shows promising performance in terms of stress and displacement, indicating that the strap design may be an effective way to further enhance the mechanical properties of the design.

Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the mechanical properties of the high-strength surge arrestor PCA New Design under cantilever loading. The findings can inform future design and engineering efforts, helping to improve the safety and reliability of the design.
