Transient voltage surges from sources like lightning or grid switching can damage computers and electronics. Installing transient voltage suppression devices at the main panel is the easiest way to protect equipment from surges entering the facility over electric wires. Meter-Treater manufactures modular transient protection systems like the Main Panel Treater and Branch Panel Treater that install at the main power distribution panel or local branch panels with surge ratings up to 320kA and 240kA respectively. These protect against internally generated surges from equipment like variable speed drives as well.

Protecting s -- Sur Computers ge Suppression at the P Surg anel Panel The first line of defense and the easiest way to protect computers and sensitive electronic equipment from tran- sient voltage surges is the installation of transient voltage suppression devices.* Transients are overvoltages that may be triggered by external or internal factors.
The external transient voltage surge that comes to mind
first is lightning; however, other factors such as grid switch- ing by the utility, load switching in nearby facilities, etc. can also trigger a surge. Energy enters the facility over the electric wires and may damage or destroy compo- nents and/or equipment. The company experiences costly downtime and productivity loss. Meter-Treater's Main Panel Treater (pictured) is designed as a modular Tran- sient Protection System for the facility's main AC power distribution point and switchboard panel locations to pro- tect against transient voltage surges. It has a surge rating of up to 320kA.
Many experts agree that much of the transient surge ac-
tivity is generated internally from variable-speed drives, Meter-Treater Main Panel Treater HVAC, and other machinery.
