A commercial surge protector is a device that helps to protect your equipment from voltage fluctuations and electrical surges. These devices can be used in business and industrial buildings as well as in the home. These devices help to protect equipment like computers, printers, monitors, and telephone systems from power spikes and lightning strikes.
Lightning protection is very important for businesses since they are more likely to experience lightning strikes than residential areas. When these strikes occur, not only is it bad for the business but also the entire building where the business is located.
The lightning strike would have to pass through all of the electrical outlets on its way to the ground, which will fry your equipment. Commercial surge protectors are designed to stop this from happening by creating a barrier between your equipment and electricity surge or voltage spike.
The first type of commercial surge protector is an installation type where they are wired directly into the building’s main power supply system. The second type of commercial surge protectors are portable or cordless, which plug into an electrical outlet.
If we talk about different types of commercial surge protectors, we can classify them as:
* Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) – This type of surge protection device protects against transient voltage surges and spikes which commonly occur on electric power distribution systems. The TVSS functions either by clamping voltage surges or by using gas discharge tubes.
It provides protection for electronic devices such as computers, office equipment, appliances and telecommunication equipment from high voltage transients without interrupting the normal flow of electricity.
Transient voltage surge suppressors can be classified as:
* Class 1 – Type 1 – Used for protecting sensitive electronic equipment such as computers and related peripheral devices against large voltage surges and spikes.
They offer the highest level of protection for data processing equipment and other sensitive electronic devices against fast rise time transient over voltages.
* Class 2 – Type 2 – Used for protecting sensitive electronic equipment against slow rise time transients, typically related with lightning strikes or switching operations on power lines
