PROTEC SURGE PROTECTION DEVICES (SPD) or TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSORS (TVSS) Protec® brand devices are produced by Protec Power Solution Inc. in North Carolina, USA. Protec Surge Protection Devices (SPDs) are efficient protection for all sensitive and electrical equipment against effects of surges or transients.

A Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) or Surge Protection Device (SPD), as they are called, is a device that accomplishes two basic functions. It first provides a place for a rise in current and voltage to equalize (other than across your equipment) and secondly, it absorbs or diverts the excess energy to places other than the protected load.

PROTEC TVSS and SPDs - Surge protection for AC and DC power distribution, instrumentation, communications, measurement, and control systems.

This document provides information on the ProT Series 120kA low voltage surge protection device from Protec Power Solutions. It can protect against surges up to 120kA per phase with overcurrent and overtemperature protection.

A TVSS is a class of device is used to protect equipment in power transmission and distribution systems. To protect a unit of equipment from transients occurring on an attached conductor, a surge arrester is connected to the conductor just before it enters the equipment.

The TVSS Power Event Monitor helps users gauge and moni-tor power surges, whether onsite or remotely via stan-dard communication proto-cols, so you can take correc-tive action.

TVSS (Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor) and SPD (Surge Protective Device), both refer to the device that can protect the low-voltage electrical system from damages of transients, spikes or surges (indirect lightning strike induced from power lines).
