Wholesale Surge Protection
Surge protection devices (SPDs) are essential for protecting electrical equipment from transient voltage spikes or surges caused by events like lightning strikes, power grid switching, or internal switching operations. These surges can cause significant damage to control panels, circuit boards, and other sensitive components. By diverting or dissipating excess voltage, surge protectors help maintain the integrity of your electrical systems and avoid costly repairs or replacements.

Why Surge Protection in Control Panels Matters
Control panels house critical electrical components, including relays, PLCs, terminal blocks, and other sensitive equipment. These systems are vulnerable to power surges, which can lead to:
- Equipment Damage: High voltage surges can destroy sensitive components, rendering systems inoperable.
- Downtime: Unexpected failures can result in costly operational downtime, impacting productivity.
- Data Loss: Control panels in automated environments often manage complex data and processes that can be corrupted or lost during a surge.
- Safety Risks: Surges can cause equipment to malfunction, creating safety hazards for operators.
Using surge protection within control panels ensures that your systems are shielded from these risks, minimizing potential damage and ensuring your operations remain reliable and efficient.
Types of Panel Mount Surge Protection Devices
At Control Design Supply, we offer a range of surge protection devices specifically designed for use in control panels and electrical systems. Some of the most common types include:
- Panel-Mounted Surge Protectors: These devices are installed directly within your control panel to protect against surges that may affect the entire system.
- DIN Rail Surge Protectors: Designed to mount onto DIN rails, these surge protectors provide a convenient and organized solution for protecting your electrical panels.
- Point-of-Use Surge Protectors: Used to protect individual devices or circuits within a panel, these protectors ensure that sensitive equipment is shielded from voltage spikes.
Benefits of Using Surge Protection in Your Control Panel
- Prevents Equipment Damage: Surge protectors absorb or divert excess voltage, preventing damage to expensive equipment and components inside your control panel.
- Reduces Downtime: With surge protection in place, your systems are less likely to fail due to power surges, keeping your operations running smoothly.
- Cost-Effective Solution: Investing in surge protection is far less expensive than replacing damaged equipment or dealing with costly repairs caused by power surges.
- Improves System Longevity: Protecting your equipment from electrical surges extends its life, allowing you to maximize the return on investment in your electrical components.
- Compliance and Safety: Surge protection helps meet safety and regulatory standards, ensuring your electrical systems are compliant and safe for operation.
