• The use control and communication equipment
is continually increasing.
If surge protection used for the low-voltage system,
then suitable surge protection devices (SPD) should
be used for the telecommunications and data sys-
tems.Exposed cable supply
Buildings with exposed cable supply must pro-
tected with type SPDs, even the supply cable is
run between the last mast the exposed cable and
the building earth cable.
Low-voltage cable networks require protection against
surge voltages atmospheric origin and switching
surges due the following reasons:
• Surge voltages are not weakened attenuated suf-
ficiently earthing cables.
