Exterior Wiring
Additionally, many homes have some form of exterior electrical wiring. Security gates, outdoor lighting, electronic dog
fences, and swimming pool filtration equipment are just a few examples of outdoor electrical devices in use today.
Exterior wiring
A cloud-to-earth lightning strike in close proximity to underground wiring can cause a voltage surge which has a direct
path to the home distribution system.
Type 3 SPDs
Type 3 SPDs, also called point-of-use SPDs, are essential to any surge protection strategy to provide household
equipment with a degree of protection from surges created in the home. In addition, point-of-entry SPDs typically
have a relatively high clamping voltage and this allows some let-through energy that can be absorbed by point-of use
SPDs.
