Surge resistors: protection and safety
An electrical network may accidentally be brought to a voltage higher than its nominal voltage: we then speak of asurge .
Power surges are one of the possible causes of failures in electrical or electronic equipment.
In order to avoid any type of accident, METAL DEPLOYE RESISTOR offers a range of surge resistors or “DC overvoltage resistor” in English.
Filter, discharge & PIR resistors
What are the different types of overvoltage possible?
On an electrical installation, several types of overvoltage are possible:
- Permanent overvoltage : lasting several hours.
- Temporary overvoltage : lasting one or more seconds.
- Operating overvoltage : linked to the operation of a circuit breaker or a disconnector.
- Lightning surge : due to lightning strike of an electric line.
