Surge Protection
Surge protection devices help prevent damage to your important electrical equipment from powerful voltage spikes.
What is surge protection?
Why do I need surge protection?
Recently introduced standards put equal importance on protecting the electrical installation and electrical equipment within a building as protecting the building itself. Building owners have to abide by the British Standard BSEN62305-4 1st Sept 2008 & 17th Edition Wiring Regs Amendments 1st Jan 2012. This new standard makes it mandatory to fit a lightning current arrester on main incoming panels which are situated in buildings with external lightning conductors or fed by an overhead line.
Products such as LCD screens, data servers and industrial equipment that are critical to business activity could be affected by a voltage spike. If they are damaged the resulting downtime and lost production time could have a huge effect on your business.
