Safeguard your valuable electrical infrastructure, equipment, and personnel from the devastating power of lightning strikes with our advanced range of Lightning Arrestors. Engineered for superior performance, reliability, and longevity, our arrestors provide an essential layer of defense against transient overvoltages, ensuring continuous operation and minimizing costly downtime.
Lightning Arrestors (also known as Surge Arrestors or Surge Protective Devices - SPDs, when specifically designed for lightning events) are critical components installed in electrical power systems and telecommunication systems to protect the insulation and conductors of the system from the damaging effects of lightning. They work by diverting the high-current surge of a lightning strike safely to the ground, while simultaneously preventing the normal operating current from following the same path.
Utilizing cutting-edge Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV), Silicon Carbide (SiC), or Gap-type technologies (depending on the specific model and application), our arrestors offer rapid response times and high surge current capacities to handle even the most severe lightning events.
Built with robust, high-grade materials, our lightning arrestors are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures, UV radiation, and corrosive atmospheres, ensuring long-term, maintenance-free operation.
We offer a diverse portfolio of lightning arrestors suitable for a wide spectrum of applications, from low-voltage (LV) commercial installations to medium-voltage (MV) and high-voltage (HV) transmission and distribution networks.
All our products are rigorously tested and comply with international standards such as IEC, ANSI/IEEE, and UL, guaranteeing safety, performance, and peace of mind.
By effectively protecting your equipment from lightning-induced damage, our arrestors drastically reduce the risk of power outages, equipment failure, and associated operational disruptions, leading to significant cost savings.
