  • Protective Device for Level 3 Distribution Box

    Protective Device for Level 3 Distribution Box

    Install the Level 3 surge protection device inside the equipment or at the equipment's power supply input, especially for critical or sensitive electronic devices. Technical Requirements Maximum discharge capacity: 20kA per phase or lower. Voltage protection level: ≤ 1800V. Level 3 Protection: Terminal Equipment Surge Protection In lightning protection, the surge protection device in distribution boxes plays a crucial role. Depending on the application and protection. The three main types of SPD are Type 1 SPD, Type 2 SPD, and Type 3 SPD. The difference between them is not simply a matter of rating or cost — it is defined by where each SPD is installed in the electrical system and what kind of surge energy it is designed to handle. Adequate system designs allow for the system to withstand and isolate faults while not causing additional damage and/or outages.
