... Only then the voltage appears across the load. In reverse bias, the diode blocks the voltage, i.e. acts as an open circuit. Thus the voltage across the load becomes zero. For ideal diodes, the voltage drop in forward bias is zero. For real diodes the voltage drop is usually few tenths of a volt. The ...

... The voltage protection level (VPL) refers to the residual voltage or clamping level of the arrester. The VPL of an arrester is directly related to the reaction time of the arrester ie: the faster the reaction time, the lower the VPL. In many cases, the transient is lower in voltage than the VPL of t ...

Surge protector



A surge protector (or surge suppressor) is an appliance/device designed to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes. A surge protector attempts to limit the voltage supplied to an electric device by either blocking or by shorting to ground any unwanted voltages above a safe threshold. This article primarily discusses specifications and components relevant to the type of protector that diverts (shorts) a voltage spike to ground; however, there is some coverage of other methods.The terms surge protection device (SPD), or transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS), are used to describe electrical devices typically installed in power distribution panels, process control systems, communications systems, and other heavy-duty industrial systems, for the purpose of protecting against electrical surges and spikes, including those caused by lightning. Scaled-down versions of these devices are sometimes installed in residential service entrance electrical panels, to protect equipment in a household from similar hazards.Many power strips have basic surge protection built in; these are typically clearly labeled as such. However, power strips that do not provide surge protection are sometimes erroneously referred to as ""surge protectors"".
