Surge arrester SPD-T2-PV 2P 600V DC 20kA Type 2

Surge Arresters Type 2 for Photovoltaic systems are specialized devices designed to protect solar power installations from transient overvoltages or surges. These overvoltages can be caused by various factors, including lightning strikes, switching operations, or other electrical disturbances. Surge Arresters Type 2 for PV systems are designed to handle specific DC voltage levels commonly found in solar photovoltaic installations. The voltage rating of the surge arrester must match the voltage of the PV system to ensure effective protection. Surge Arresters Type 2 are typically installed on the DC side of the PV system, near the solar panels or inverter, to protect the sensitive electronics and components from surges. The primary purpose of Surge Arresters Type 2 in PV systems is to divert transient overvoltages safely to the ground, protecting the solar panels, inverters, charge controllers, and other sensitive electronics from damage. By installing Surge Arresters, PV system owners can reduce the risk of costly equipment failures and downtime caused by voltage surges, thereby enhancing the reliability and performance of their solar power installations.
