Should transients occur in rapid succession, the average power dissipation
required is simply the energy (watt-seconds) per pulse times the number
of pulses per second. The power so developed must be within the
specifications shown on the Device Ratings and Specifications table for
the specific device. Furthermore, the operating values need to be derated
at high temperatures as shown in Figure 1. Because varistors can only
dissipate a relatively small amount of average power they are, therefore,
not suitable for repetitive applications that involve substantial amounts of
average power dissipation.

NOTE: If pulse ratings are exceeded, a shift of VN(DC) (at specified current) of more than ±10% could result.This type of shift, which normally results in a decrease of VN(DC),
may result in the device not meeting the original published specifications, but it does not prevent the device from continuing to function, and to provide transient protection
