Power Distribution BS 2025/2026

Overvoltage & Surge Protection Protects valuable electrical equipment from overvoltage and high power surges. are all voltages that briefl y exceed the limit of the mains voltage. Overvoltages can for example be caused by impulses from powerful engines, welding equipment or other large electrical equipment. The most dangerous cause is the extremely high voltage spike generated by an indirect lightning strike. Without effective protection in place these overvoltages can destroy sensitive electronic components in the circuits of these devices and spell the end for unprotected electrical appliances. also enter the power grid through indirect lightning in enormous currents, reach computer systems, home entertainment and hi-fi equipment and destroy these devices without appropriate protection. such as varistors and gas discharge tubes are important components that can short dangerous overvoltages to earth in a split second to prevent destructive spikes from reaching the protected equipment.
