  • Abstract
    The purpose of this document is to discuss the various solid state technologies in popular usage, and as the basis of surge protection modules employed to protect sensitive equipment from transient and surge overvoltages. The terminology´s, behaviour and selection of such devices can lead to confusion when seeking a solution to a specification need such as BS6651, IEC 801-5 etc. and most importantly to satisfy the actual application requirement
