A typical surge protector passes the electrical current along the outlet to number of the devices plugged into the power strip. If the voltage happens to rise above the acceptable level, the protector will divert the extra electricity into the outlets grounding wire.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The varistor is connected in parallel between the input lines L-N, l-pe and pe-n to form an infinite impedance. When the instantaneous voltage occurs, the impedance of the lightning protection module will decrease rapidly, releasing the high-voltage pulse energy caused by lightning and surge to the earth, so as to achieve the effect of protecting the internal electrical equipment.
