Xireeyaha Zinc oxide waa nooc cusub oo xirxirayaal ah oo la sameeyay 1970-meeyadii, kaas oo inta badan ka kooban zinc oxide varistor.varistor kastaa waxa uu leeyahay danab bedeladeed oo gaar ah (oo loo yaqaan varistor voltage) marka la sameeyo.Sida danab shaqada caadiga ah (taas oo ah, in ka yar danab varistor ah), qiimaha varistor waa mid aad u weyn, taas oo u dhiganta gobolka insulating, laakiin in danab shaqada caadiga ah (taas oo ah, in ka yar danab varistor ah) Under tallaabo Voltage-ka (oo ka weyn tamarta varistor-ka), varistor-ka ayaa lagu jajabiyaa qiime hooseeya, taas oo u dhiganta xaalad gaaban oo gaaban.Si kastaba ha noqotee, ka dib marka la dhufto varistor, gobolka dahaarka waa la soo celin karaa;marka danabku ka sareeyo korantada varistor-ka laga saaro, waxa ay ku soo noqotaa heerka iska caabinta sare.Sidaa darteed, haddii xadhig-xidhaha zinc oxide lagu rakibo laydhka, marka danabku dhaco, korantada sare ee mawjadda hillaaca ayaa sababa in varistor-ka uu burburo, markaasay hillaaca hadda socdaa uu dhulka ku sii qulqulo varistor-ka, kaas oo xakamayn kara danab ku jira khadka korantada oo ku dhex jira meel nabdoon.Taas oo lagu ilaalinayo badbaadada qalabka korantada.
