There are many ways to prevent surges from entering the power supply in the digital age. To increase the stability of electronic devices and systems and prevent damage, consider the following methods:
1. Use a surge protector
- Surge Protector: By installing a device that detects and blocks voltage surges, you can protect your devices from sudden voltage increases.
KEC technical standards and the Electricity Business Act also explicitly state the application of surge protection devices.
2. UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)
- Uninterruptible power supply (UPS): Provides backup power to protect your devices when power is out or unstable. UPS mitigates voltage surges.
Surge protectors are installed to prevent damage to the device.
3. Use power filter (surge protector Class III)
- Power filter: A device that is connected to the power supply and filters out noise or instability that may occur in the power supply. It improves the quality of the power supply and ensures the safety of the device.
It helps to raise the height.
4. Electrical Installation Inspection
- Regular electrical equipment inspection: Regularly inspect the building's electrical wiring and equipment to monitor surges that may occur from old transformers or wiring.
We prevent damage from surge inflow by establishing countermeasures based on surge data through a surge black box.
5. Establishing a grounding system
- Safe grounding system: Surges can be effectively prevented through safe grounding of electrical equipment. When voltage increases occur through the grounding system,
In this case, 50% of the surge current can be safely discharged to ground. However, the discharged surge energy generates a secondary induced surge due to an increase in ground potential.
It can cause damage to communications, automatic control signal lines, firefighting systems, and communication systems, so a surge protector suitable for the intended use must be installed.
6. Use of electronic device shielding wire
- To prevent inductive surges caused by electromagnetic induction, use shielded cables when constructing power lines and communication lines.
7. Device quality assurance
- Use high-quality electronic devices: It is important to use high-quality devices that have surge protection built in. Manufacturers usually specify this feature, so
Take this into consideration when choosing a product.
8. Education and Awareness
- User education: By educating users on how to use electronic devices safely, they can raise awareness of surges and respond proactively.
Let's make it happen.
To prevent damage to electronic devices, it is recommended to use a combination of the above precautions. This will help prevent surges in the digital environment.
It can effectively prevent and improve the stability of the device.
