A lot of valuable equipment such as PCs, solar panels, distributors and control cabinets is used in a (business) building. This equipment can not only be damaged by the consequences of a lightning strike, but can even break down completely. Even an ambient lightning strike can cause damage to your electrical installation. In addition, a direct lightning strike can also cause fire. In short, overvoltage not only causes high costs, but also severely limits your productivity. By implementing lightning protection, you protect all your electrical equipment and systems against the harmful effects of a direct or indirect lightning strike.
These effects of overvoltage can be caused by other problems besides lightning strikes. As a result, surge protectors are essential to counteract the harmful effects of unexpected power surges, for example. So when you deploy the right lightning and surge protection, you no longer have to worry about damage or power cuts. This is because they protect your electrical installations and appliances.
The entire electrical installation and data infrastructure often comes together at the main distribution board (HVK), sub-distribution boards (OVK) and control cabinets. As a result, this is also a vulnerable point for major damage from lightning strikes and overvoltages. Indeed, when overvoltage occurs here, it affects your entire electrical installation. So by installing type 1 +2 lightning and overvoltage arresters here, your electrical appliances and installations are effectively protected. Apart from this, you can also use type 3 surge protectors to give extra protection to your most important equipment.
