This video demonstrates the steps for installing a surge protective device (SPD) from an application standpoint. We discuss the installation process starting with prep work, ensuring the correct type of SPD is selected, installing the SPD correctly and finally energizing the SPD.
SPDs help reduce costly downtime and protect sensitive electronic equipment against the damaging effects of transients caused by lightning, utility switching, internal load switching and more.
