Type 2 surge arrester / type 1 / DIN rail / for electrical installations

Protection of power supply lines and maintenance of energy supply: Continuity of power in a data center is paramount. Data centers consume huge amounts of energy, not just to run the IT systems, but also to cool equipment. But not all of it is properly protected, which means there is a rising need for greater protection. Most of the damage caused by lightning strikes a...

EN 62305 accepts that we now live in the electronic age, making LEMP (Lightning Electromagnetic Impulse) protection for electronic and electrical systems an integral part of the standard through EN 62305-4. LEMP is the term given to the overall electromagnetic effects of lightning, including conducted surges (transient overvoltage and currents) and radiated electromagnet...

Risks of electrical surges 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. These transients can cause damage ranging from the premature ageing of equipment...
