Meskipun sambaran petir menyebabkan beberapa lonjakan, sebagian besar disebabkan oleh pengoperasian peralihan, motor, atau gangguan di dalam jaringan itu sendiri. Di sinilah pelindung lonjakan arus Tipe 2 berperan.<\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"632\" data-end=\"883\">SPD Tipe 2 (Alat Pelindung Lonjakan Arus) dipasang di papan distribusi utama atau bagian hulu sistem UPS.

By following proper installation rules\u2014short wiring, correct conductor size, reliable earthing, and backup protection\u2014you ensure that your SPD performs exactly as designed.<\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"8451\" data-end=\"8610\">A UPS alone is not enough to protect sensitive systems. Pairing it with a properly installed Type 2 SPD provides the resilience modern facilities demand.<\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"8612\" data-end=\"8947\">Our company\u2019s SLP40-275\/3S+1 and BR-30FU series SPDs are designed for easy DIN-rail installation, built-in safety features, and compliance with IEC 61643 standards. Whether you\u2019re protecting a residential board, a commercial office, or an industrial UPS system, these solutions ensure long-term reliability and peace of mind.<\/p>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britecelectric.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/2171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britecelectric.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britecelectric.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/blog"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.britecelectric.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2158"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britecelectric.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2171"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"blog_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.britecelectric.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog_category?post=2171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
