- #Surge_protection_device installation and working principle of #SPD and its inner parts are explained here in this video well with fine animation work.
Surge protection is needed for #Electrical_safety and are designed mainly to protect equipment against #transient_voltage surges that appear and disappear in just a few microseconds.
Although the duration of these spikes are very short, large single surge events such as lightning, can reach hundreds of thousands of volts and can cause immediate damage to the equipment.
These surges cannot be stopped using conventional over current circuit breakers or fuses, since operating time of those switches are not quick enough to detect these fast appearing spikes.
However, lightning power spikes account for around 20% of total transient surge activities only.
The remaining 80% of surges occur internally, when a motor starts or some other supply line fault outside of human control.
Although these surges can be of smaller in magnitude, with a higher frequency of occurrence, and with continued exposure, they can degrade sensitive electronic equipment within the circuit.

Thank you
perfect explanation with all required details , many thanks for such a helpful information .
Thank you.
Thanks to your hard work on
This lecture it is very important to protective device
Thank you.
Very well explained. Recently I installed a 100kA surge protector from Dehn in my three phase connection in my home.
Thank you. 👍

thank you
Thank you
👍👍👍👍👍👍🙋🙋🙋
Thank you
Thanks Share
Thank you
Can I ask sir ,if I have 70A main CB what should I put SPD type is can put 20KA?
If I don't replace a failed SPD with a new one, would it make the RCCB (or RCBO) to trip (circuit break) more easily?
Thanks
Thank you
One question for you
.
Where to install Voltage protector (like MCB)
I have 2 meters: Grid and Solar
If a 3 pole surge protector ( Siemens bolt shield) is installed in a home with 120/240 v, no 3 phases capability, will the surge protector still protect ?
Standard 3phase SPD should work as long as you select matching voltage for single phase.
For a 230 volt single phase supply, V RMS is 230V.
V max is 325 volts.
When you select with 10-15 % extra voltage, SPD should have 375-385 Volts value.
Any two poles on SPD can be connected for single phase lines, keeping the extra pole empty.
How ever, ask the manufacture first, since some sophisticated units may not work with one pole is without a phase line connected to it.
Great video.. In a surge scenario, the SPD will ground the excess voltage but WILL it also trip the MCB??
Even a high performing MCB will take more than 2 milliseconds to operate.
Sudden transient voltages appear and dissapear within few microseconds.
1 microsecond is 1 millionth of a second.
A good SPD will operate within few nano seconds.
1 microsecond is 1000 nanoseconds.
It shows how fast SPDs act.
MCBs are not capable enough to detect those transient voltages.
@@ElectroAcademyEA so the breaker won't trip... Thank you for replying
@@shaunchetty4223 yep and now we also know why. That's what good teachers do.
Thank you
Do we need a dedicated earth bar, or we can connect the SPD to the existing common earth bar.
If the earth wire size from present earth bar to the ground rod is 10 mm2 or more, same earth bar can be used for SPD connection.
If it is less, you need a separate earth wire with 10 mm2 or more, from SPD to the ground rod.
Can i direct connection of SPD in linr side no on the load side of Main breaker?
Can I use a three phase SPD device for single phase connection wiring at home with keeping other 2L s are free. Is it working?
Yes
Do we get electric shock when we touch any metal appliance which conected to the earth cable when the spd release the lightning volt trough the ground cable?
Always better to avoid touching metal parts unnecessarily, since we don't know the magnitude of the current going to flow, when lightning occurs.
So I think it's better to keep a separate dedicated earthpole for the spd to avoid any kind of risk
Manufacturing Surge protecotor Devices .OEM &ODM
How to maintenance SPD to know is in good conditions from time to time?
If the indicator stays green, SPD is in good condition.
What if I have a 230v supply feeding a split board with 2 rcds in the consumer unit
You can install Type1 SPD at main incoming line after the main switch. (Before splitting the circuit.)
If two sub-distribution boards are available with equipment need to be protected, two SPDs (Type2) need to be installed in two DBs before the RCD.
Can u do a video of SPD faults and how to reset ?
I will upload a new video about SPDs, within next 3 days.
Hope you will find it helpful.
Three phase ki spd me agar two phase lagaye aur nutral na lagaye to kya spd work karega
If a surge appears on any line connected to the SPD, it will by pass it through the earth wire to the ground.
If Neutral wire is not connected, still the phase wires connected to the SPD will work.
But, any surge appears or comes in to the house from outside on the Neutral line, surely can damage the equipment connected.
That is the reason for connecting all the lines from outdoor to the SPD, before entering the premises.
This is indeed informative except for your voice is crucial to listen.
Thank you 😆
What software did yo uses to make this demomstration of the coonnection
PowerPoint animations
@@ElectroAcademyEA do you have toturial about it
@@janjanboquia6738 czcams.com/video/hTqaG44Nr34/video.html
Powerpoint tutorials are rare in youtube.
Above is one on animation, but not about wiring work.
I also just started exploring powerpoint on my own and practiced it.
I live in a country where rms voltage is 230v
So basically 325peak volt as shown in the video
I want to order a surge protector online
Same specs as in the video
In 20ka
Imax 40ka
But with uc 275v
In the video it says uc value shouldnt be near the peak voltage
So can i still use that ?
Even in my country here in store
They sell ones with uc lower than peak voltage
Also the up is 1.2 v is that better for voltage spike ?
Or 1.5v is better?
Please somebody help me with this
asap
Really need some help here
UC is maximum continuous voltage and is related to the RMS voltage.
Since RMS voltage is 230 volts here, this SPD with 275 V UC limit is ideal to use.
When consider the UP level, 1.2 V SPD, or even a one with 900 Volts is better than the 1.5 V unit for sensitive electronic items, but it should be used as the secondary SPD unit only.
That means you should have a primary SPD with a UP level of around 2.5 V at the entrance then.
Since we normally go for only one SPD unit for a home, better option is the unit with the UP value of 1.5 V.
@@ElectroAcademyEA i am just trying to protect my electronics from voltage spikes from power outage and surges
Where i live, i don't really have any issues with lighting
Do i still need to buy spd type 1 ?
I also have spd type 3 on a power strip
So i will have both type 2 and 3
If your area is free from Lightning issues, type 1 SPD is optional only.
So you can go with Up 1.2 V SPD, and it has better protection level than 1.5 V SPD for electronic equipment.
@@ElectroAcademyEA thank you for your help
Really cleared up the confusion
And very educative video
Have a good day :)
@@kuronekosan2830 Thank you
How about SPD rating?
Many thanks.
Will try to do a video on this.
Difference between electromechenical rcbo AC type rcbo and A type rcbo
Will do a video on RCBO later
I think you connected reverse MCB wiring

ATS video is there.
Please go to the channel and check.
This diagrama refers only for CT1 type of connection and is wrong because in TT systems RCD should be before SPD and not after. Only in TNS is after. Also who the hell uses CT1 today ? CT2 is by far beter for TT and TNS for electricians
CT1 type is used at main switch board and if sub-distribution boards too are available, CT2 type should come on to the sub-panel.
(CT2 type is not there as a replacement for CT1 type)
CT3 or type 3 SPDs are also available and should be installed separately with specific systems when protection is needed for security cameras, telephone systems, PLC operation etc.
Further, RCD is nothing to do with SPD.
SPD is better to be fixed even before the main switch, but since it needs to be isolated when replacing or new one being installed, SPD comes after the main switch.
That is poor advice to run a separate earth. Earthing connections should always be terminated at a common point to avoid the risk of Voltage differences.
