Surge Protection For Photovoltaic Systems

Indirect lightning strikes are destructive. Anecdotal observations about lightning activity are usually a poor indicator of the level of lightning-induced overvoltage in PV arrays.

Surge Protection Device Overview

Lightning discharges could contain currents of 200,000A which if struck at or near power transmission lines would generate a significant voltage transient. This voltage transient could cause significant damage to both domestic and commercial electronic equipment.

Surge Protector For LED-lighting

Public lighting installations are exposed to the environment. Located where continuity of service is essential, it is crucial that these installations are protected against lightning and overvoltage and that can be achieved using a surge protector for street lighting.

Surge Protection For Solar Photovoltaic Systems

The remote locations, exposed surface areas and extensive layouts of solar power plants put them at high risk of damage from the elements, particularly electrical storms.

Surge Protection Devices For Railways

In the rail transport, both the underground and the above-ground railway or tram transport, attention is turned to the safety and reliability of the traffic, and to the unconditional protection of persons.

Surge Protector Electrical Performance Requirements

Requirements 1. The surge protector should prevent direct contact

Surge Protection For Electronic Products

It is estimated that transients and surges cause 75% of failures in electronic products. Voltage transients and surges are everywhere. Power grids, lightning strikes, blasting, and even people walking on carpets will generate thousands of volts of the electrostatically induced voltage. These are the invisible, deadly killers of electronic products.

Why Gas Discharge Tube Can’t be used between Live and Neutral

Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) has two plates of metals which is separated by inertia gas and then sealed in a porcelain cylinder.

How to choose an SPD

A Surge Protective Device (SPD) is designed to reduce surge voltage, which protects equipment and reduces repair and replacement costs. Every SPD reduces the surge voltage to equipment during a surge to a voltage tested level known as Let-Through-Voltage.
