With the increasing reliance on interconnected equipment in the domestic and business sectors, adequate surge protection is essential for the maintenance of any business. The replacement of any damaged element or its rapid degradation entails large financial outlays that are sometimes difficult to bear. Overheating, on the other hand, increases the likelihood of fire and, consequently, personal injury.
The digital transformation and the IoT revolution (Internet of Things), permanently interconnected teams, are making everyday life and economic sectors more and more dependent on technology. However, due to their dependence on a constant flow of energy and data for availability and performance, all electrical appliances are especially sensible to overvoltages and need to be protected to prevent possible accidents and economic losses. The information given by the overvoltage counter ‘Surge Logger’ lets you register and learn about these events in order to achieve an optimal protection.
Small tertiary businesses, like any other sector of economic activity, are increasingly dependent on highly complex equipment, with electrical and electronic components that are very sensitive to transient and permanent surges. Surge protection of installations and equipment is not always performed properly, which has an impact on the safety of people and goods, and entails economic damage that is difficult to assume for a business of these characteristics.
Smart buildings are particularly vulnerable to the destructive effects of thunderstorms, due to the wide variety of interconnected automatic systems (such as lighting, temperature control, multimedia systems, telecommunications, security, etc.). Therefore, any surge that penetrates the structure, not only through the power supply lines but also through the data lines, can cause damage to a multitude of sensitive electronic equipment such as computers, alarm systems, transducers, programmable logic controllers, audio-visual equipment, etc.
