2. Surge protector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_protector

   The terms surge protection device (SPD) and transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS) are used to describe electrical devices typically installed in power distribution panels, process control systems, communications systems, and other heavy-duty industrial systems, for the purpose of protecting against electrical surges and spikes, including those caused by lightning.

3. IEC 61000-4-5 - Wikipedia

   [2] [5] The "8/20 μs" generator is designed for surge arrester testing, and produces a high-current surge into a low-impedance load. [2] On the other hand, modern electronic devices can be high and low-impedance loads simultaneously due to non-linear devices, protection circuits, and arcing in a dielectric breakdown.

4. Surge control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_control

   Surge control products have been used in many industries to protect the maximum working pressure of hydraulic system for decades. Typical applications for surge relief equipment is in pipelines at pump stations, receiving manifolds at storage facilities, back pressure control, marine loading/off loading, site specific applications where pressure surges are generated by the automation system ...

5. Power system protection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_protection

   Simplicity: Devices must minimize protection circuitry and equipment. Reliability: Dependability vs Security. There are two aspects of reliable operation of protection systems: dependability and security. [8] Dependability is the ability of the protection system to operate when called upon to remove a faulted element from the power system.

6. Varistor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varistor

   Metal-oxide varistor manufactured by Siemens & Halske AG. Modern varistor schematic symbol, which is the same as a thermistor symbol [1]. A varistor (a.k.a. voltage-dependent resistor (VDR)) is a surge protecting electronic component with an electrical resistance that varies with the applied voltage. [2]

7. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

   The offline/standby UPS offers only the most basic features, providing surge protection and battery backup. The protected equipment is normally connected directly to incoming utility power. When the incoming voltage falls below or rises above a predetermined level the UPS turns on its internal DC-AC inverter circuitry, which is powered from an ...
