LV Surge Arrester Prices

LV Surge Arrester Prices, Low voltage surge arrester products undertake the most important role in today’s technology to protect systems from harmful impulses such as lightning, grid peaks, harmonics, and sudden voltage changes. Today, industrial facilities and production areas, especially renewable energy investments, are focused on the concept of sustainable production. The disabling of systems due to any malfunction causes serious economic losses. Therefore, preventing electrical damages is extremely important. LV Surge Arrester protection products are also of great importance in sustainable production. Internal Lightning Protection systems must absolutely be used in facilities with lightning rods (external lightning protection) and in facilities where down conductors descend as bare conductors. Otherwise, we put our facility and production at risk.

As a result of the joint project of ITU and the General Directorate of Meteorology within the last 2 years, based on the perception of lightning detection systems located at 41 different points of our country, close to 7 million lightning strikes have fallen on our country, and these lightning impulses surprisingly reach levels of 300kA. This highlights how important the situation and protecting our facilities are.

LV Surge Arrester products must be selected correctly and installed correctly in this risky environment. However, a different dimension of the event is that investors and end-users avoid using these products because they think their prices are high. Whereas, when the right product is selected as a result of a correct survey, LV Surge Arrester Prices are economical in a way that does not allow for price comparison at the point of protecting investments. Internal Lightning Protection product prices have always been seen as too high as a result of wrong perception in our country and have been avoided in investments. However, Class B, Class C, Class D LV SURGE ARRESTER products are divided into many varieties according to kiloampere and technology levels when categorized. LV Surge Arrester prices vary completely according to the products to be selected based on the result of regional risk and risk analysis. A product in the Type 1+2 class category with 100kA protection does not have to be used in every location, and using this product in floor panels creates extra costs; likewise, a Type 2 Class C LV Surge Arrester should not be used in the Main distribution panel just because it is affordable. In summary, LV Surge Arrester prices are not very high; with the right selection, the most correct protection can be designed with optimum cost. LV Surge Arrester technologies vary greatly; just as there are only varistor-based products, there are also products with completely GAS discharge tube technology in the market. Just as there are models of surge arresters with remote monitoring warning contact outputs, there are also models without monitoring but providing high protection. If we choose a product with warning contact output for every point, it may exceed our budget in terms of cost; when a selection is made entirely according to the need, product prices can decrease to a usable level within the scope of the project, and our system can be protected against all sudden overvoltage risks, especially lightning.

For example, while a 1MW solar power plant investment is realized with an investment of around 1 million Euros, the LV Surge Arrester cost of this system cannot exceed 10 thousand TL. However, when we think that we protect a 1 million investment for 10 thousand TL, I think the benefit/cost ratio here is indisputable. This prejudice, technical unconsciousness, and wrong product selection put facilities at risk.

The lightning protection expert staff carries out engineering studies to contribute to sustainable production by selecting the most correct product for the investor among thousands of products of its international partners. As a result of the perception that LV Surge Arrester prices are high and misguidance, many damaged facility officials apply to us. Consequently, LV Surge Arrester products are an indispensable part of the system for the investment to survive.
