Surge protective devices: a complete

range
LSP SPD’s protect electric and electronic equipment against transients, originating
from lightning and switching transient sources.

Advantages

 The protection cartridge is easy to replace, no need to cut off the power
supply,
 The implementation has been simplified by connecting Surge Protective
Devices to earth in parallel (shunt) and/or in series,
 Less references.

A complete offer with multiple

advantages
These transients can cause anything from the premature aging of equipment, logic
failures and downtime, to the complete destruction of electrical components and the
entire electrical distribution system. Surge protective devices are strongly
recommended in sites that are exposed and prone to lightning, to protect sensitive and
expensive electrical appliances.

The LSP surge protective devices offer is practical to implement and the references
can be easily chosen.

or any SPD requirement - LSP has the

offer
 SPDs type 1: where the building is fitted with lightning conductors.
 SPDs type 2: for general protection.
  SPDs for fine protection: to protect very sensitive electronic equipment.
 SPDs for telephone lines: For the protection of receiver against transient
current surge conducted via telephone lines.

Surge Protection Device (SPD):

The surge protection device (SPD) is a component of the electrical installation
protection system. This device is connected in parallel on the power supply circuit of
the loads that it has to protect. It can also be used at all levels of the power supply
network. This is the most commonly used and most efficient type of overvoltage
protection.

Lightning surge protection device (SPD) with plug in cartridge ensure general
protection of electric equipment and protection in common and differential mode for
domestic, industrial and commercial buildings. SPDs protect electric and electronic
equipment against transients, originating from lightning and switching transient
sources. For a residential building, SPD serves as “1st line of defence” when it is
installed at the main incoming power distribution board (DB).

The SPD is designed to be easily installed in power and control panels using standard
DIN-rail mounting brackets. This series of product offers 20,000 – 100,000 amps of
both normal and common mode surge protection.

The SPD is available in single-phase, split-phase, three-phase (3 wires) and three-

phase (4 wires) configurations. Replaceable modules allow for easy maintenance and
mount directly into the SPD base assembly, simplifying the replacement process.

The status of the surge protector modules can be monitored through the indicator
lenses or remotely through the alarm terminals (optional features). Available as an
option, the replacement cartridge allows simple replacement without the need to cut
off the power supply, Cartridges are available for all discharge currents (80kA, 60kA,
40kA, 20kA) with an indicator.

SPD effectively reduces the interference coupling that can occur from transient surge
voltages, even significantly below the limits prescribed by insulation coordination
according to EN 60664-3 / DIN VDE 0110-3. This means that the entire system is
exposed to less malfunction. We offer different products for different main types and
voltage levels. Even for photovoltaic (Solar energy systems) applications, there is
special protection according to IEC/EN 61643-31.

normative definition & specifications
Different Type of SPDs
SPD type 1: Where the building is fitted with lightning conductors. The Type 1 SPD
is recommended in the specific case of service-sector and industrial buildings,
protected by a lightning protection system or a meshed cage. It protects electrical
installations against direct lightning strokes. It can discharge the back-current from
lightning spreading from the earth conductor to the network conductors. Type 1 SPD
is characterized by a 10/350 µs current wave.

SPD type 2: Installed at distribution board (DB) within a building. The first gate to
prevent lightning strikes from entering your house via electricity supply line. The
Type 2 SPD is the main protection system for all low voltage electrical installations.
Installed in each electrical switchboard, it prevents the spread of overvoltages in the
electrical installations and protects the loads. Type 2 SPD is characterized by an 8/20
µs current wave.

SPD type 3: These SPDs have a low discharge capacity. They must therefore
mandatorily be installed as a supplement to Type 2 SPD and in the vicinity of
sensitive loads. Type 3 SPD is characterized by a combination of voltage waves
(1.2/50 μs) and current waves (8/20 μs).

1. Scheduling: The user can schedule any individual

load connected to the devices i.e. lights, bulbs, fans,
etc. to turn on/off at a specific time. Once the
schedule is set the device will follow the instructions
at that specific time. The user can also repeat the
schedules to make it work throughout the week and
at any point in time.
2. Routines: The user can also create a Routine
depending on the requirements. In a particular
routine, the user can set multiple appliances to turn
on/off at a specific time of the day. Once the routine
is set the devices will attain their state at that point
in time. For example, you can create a routine to
 turn on the fan and turn off the lights in your room
at 9 AM in the morning.
3. Auto-off timer: The user can also set auto-off timers
for a specific appliance to turn off after a particular
time. For example, you can set the auto-off timer to
turn off the lights in 50 minutes.
4. History: The user can also check the history of any
individual appliance. The history report will tell the
user about the switching details of that appliance.
Therticular appliance. In the history details, the user
will get to know about the time at which the
appliance was turned on/off and it will also
tell “who” controlled the appliance. For example, if
you manually turned on the light at 9 AM, then in the
history it will be updated as a manual off Action has
been taken on lights at 9 AM, or if any of my family
members controlled the device from the mobile app,
you’ll get to know who controlled the device and at
what time the action has been taken.
5. Add Family Members: The prime user of the mobile
application can add multiple family members in the
app so that all the members of the family have
complete access to all the devices present in their
home.
6. Running Time: The user will also be able to check the
number of running hours of all the individual devices
from the mobile application.
7. Voice Control: All the devices can be controlled via
Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa and you can also
add Siri shortcuts to control the devices with Siri.
8. Scenes: The user can also create a scene to make
specific adjustments to the devices and with a single
tap of a button the scene will be executed. For
example, you can create a party scene in which you
can turn on the TV, dim the lights, turn on the AC
and make the volume of the soundbar 100%.
9. Workflows: In the workflows, the user can create a
workflow based on the sensor values. In the
workflows, the user can control multiple appliances
to turn on/off based on the sensor value. For
example, you can create a workflow that will turn on
 the AC and turn off the LED lights automatically
when the temperature of my living room is above 26°
Celsius.
10. Device Warranty Status: The user doesn’t need to
worry about the warranty cards anymore.

It protects your appliances from short circuits and

overloads by controlling them through your smartphones
or voice assistants. And for this purpose, you don’t even
need a “Smart MCB box” because your Smart wifi MCB
itself will be a Smart Circuit Breaker! How cool is that?
wifi MCB 63 amp will be a recommend pick of all due to its
extra advancement technology and unique features.

The process is very easy, and you will see how little time
it takes to complete work. As we’ve said earlier, Smart
wifi MCB is a safe and secure option for your home.

MCB, Miniature Circuit Breaker is an adjustable circuit

breaker that has an electro-mechanical mechanism of
action. The MCB is an easy solution and an alternative to
fuses, to control the sudden surge of charges in the
circuit. With an immense growth in technological
advancements, SmarDen presents a “Smart MCB” or
should we call it a Smart Circuit Breaker!
