Save Lives And Money By Installing Lightning Surge Protection Devices
We are now living in a world where the continuity and dependability of electronic systems is of paramount importance. We often assume that our systems will always be operational when required. However, in order for this to be the case, our systems must be designed in a robust manner. A lightning strike up to one kilometer away can cause damage to any electronic system if it is not adequately protected with lightning surge protection devices . Our electronic systems today are now more complex, and the components are smaller than in the past, making them more prone to overvoltage. If they experience such an event as a lightning strike, replacing a component can be costly. Although lightning is the most spectacular form of externally generated surges, it is only one source of surge events. Other sources include the switching of power circuits, operation of electrical equipment by neighboring facilities, switching of power factor capacitor banks, and switching and clearing of faults on
