Protection Class
The surge protectors Class I are indicated for locals subject to direct and high intensity strokes, typical characteristic of installations and building supplied directly by overhead distribution power lines exposed to lightning discharges. It is recommended the installation of the surge protector class I in the input point of power line in the building.
For locals where the power grid is subject to indirect lightning discharges, typical case of internal installations of homes and/or buildings supplied by embedded/underground power lines, the surge protectors Class II are recommended. It is recommended to install them on the switch board panel.
