1 Equipment protection
2 Serie K Risk of electrical surges Equipment protection ightning strikes per day 61% Electrical damages caused by surges 30k verage current of a lightning strike ightning and surge protection Electrical and electronic equipment is indispensable in the daily activities of today s businesses and individuals. Such devices are connected to the electricity grid, often exchanging data and signals through communication lines and are usually sensitive to disturbances. These interconnecting networks provide a propagation path for overvoltages. Protection against lightning and overvoltages not only ensures the safety of people, goods and equipment, but also ensures continuity of installation services and meet criteria of energy efficiency. Overvoltage protection extends the life of the equipment by more than 20%, which significantly reduces the volume of electronic waste. It also reduces the power consumption of the installations, all of which translates into cost savings and environmental sustainability. Transient voltage surges in V power lines Transient overvoltages are voltage surges that can reach tens of kilovolts with a duration of the order of microseconds. Despite their short duration, the high energy content can cause serious problems to equipment connected to the line, from premature aging to destruction, causing disruptions to service and financial loss. This of surge can have various different causes, including atmospheric lightning directly striking the external protection (lightning rods) on a building or transmission line or the associated induction of electromagnetic fields on metallic conductors. Outdoor and longer lines are the most exposed to these fields, which often receive high levels of induction. It is also common for non-weather phenomena, such as transformer centre switching or the disconnection of motors or other inductive loads to cause voltage spikes in adjacent lines. The protector will discharge excess energy to earth, thus limiting the peak voltage to a value acceptable for the electrical equipment connected. reduces the power consumption of the installations, all of which translates into cost savings and environmental sustainability. U t(ms) 1ms max.
3 The importance of the ground connection ground in proper conditions is therefore an aspect not to overlook when it comes to effective surge protection. ontinuously monitoring the state of the ground connection ensures proper operation of surge protection devices. Operating principle of an SPD SPD equipment troduction Implemententing the protection to IE PE Protection parameters acc. to IE Impulse current Peak current with 10/350µs waveform which the protection device can withstand without reaching end of life. Maximum discharge current Peak current with 8/20µs waveform which the protection device can withstand without reaching end of life. ominal current Peak current in 8/20µs waveform the protection device can withstand 20 times without reaching end of life. Up Voltage protection level Maximum residual voltage between the terminals of the protection device during the application of a peak current Maximum continuous operating voltage Maximum effective voltage that can be applied permanently to the terminals of the protection device. Uoc Open circuit voltage (combined voltage pulse) This parameter is used only for the lass III test and is applicable to a Type 3 SPD. It consists of the injection of a combination wave (1.2/50µs in open circuit - 8/20µs in short circuit). Ifi Follow current extinction capability This parameter is only devoted to surge protectors using air gap technology. Once they have switched, these surge protectors conduct part of the network current (follow current) and need to interrupt it..1
4 Serie K When selecting an SPD, several points must be considered: Equipment protection etwork topology: TS, T, TT, IT, D PhotoVoltaic and o of conductors. ominal voltage rating () of the supply. oth features will condition the maximum continuous operating voltage () as the IE standard sets the minimum allowed value of depending on the system configuration, taking into account a safety margin of the device above the nominal voltage. Voltage withstand rating (Ue) of the equipment in the installation.the protection device should be selected so that the voltage protection level (Up) is compatible with (lower than) the value of Ue. IE standard classifies equipment into four categories, based on the impulse voltage they are capable of withstanding. (See table on next page). Exposure of the installation to atmospheric and nonweather phenomena. I SPD Up Up < Ue PROTETED EQUIPMET I: peak current Up: voltage protection level. residual voltage at. Ue: impulse voltage the equipment can withstand Ue Exposure ratings The actual exposure of an installation depends on the combination of 3 basic criteria: (1) electrical service system, (2) external (and internal) switching of loads and (3) lightning strike density (isokeraunic level). Factors (1) and (2) generate three possible situations: - Direct impact exposure of an installation fitted with external lightning protection system or close to a tower or element susceptible to receive a strike. - High exposure of an installation fed by long overhead service lines or situated in large industrial or commercial premisses. - Medium exposure of installations with an underground service and not subject to switchings of industrial loads in the vicinity. Factor (3), the isokeraunic level of a certain country. Map by S ightning Team.2
5 Protection system of coordinated stages: Type 1, Type 1+2 and Type 2 SPDs The SPDs of a surge protection system must be able to withstand the discharged current and provide a Ures level (residual voltage) lower than the Ue peak voltage that the equipment can withstand. Most of the times it is not possible to achieve this with just one SPD, especially because the intensity of the surge is not known, and because of the induction of overvoltages when conductors exceed 10m. The optimal system of protection is the STEP approach, in which successive stages are combined in the performance of high discharge capacity devices and devices with an optimal voltage protection level (low). This is addressed by the definition of Types or lasses of SPDs according to the of transient pulses to which each protected zone in the installation is subject to.

If F1 exceeds the maximum size shown in the table below. it is necessary to install a dedicated circuit breaker or fuse F2. any case, it is recommended to install a dedicated circuit breaker or fuse for the surge diverter. The main benefit is that maintenance or replacement of the surge unit can be performed easily without the disruption caused through shutdown at the main isolator.
