Home / Surge calculation for distribution boxes
To calculate the surge current, divide the voltage waveform by the impedance of the connection between the originating event and the system. Surge protection in main power distributions Incorrectly installed surge protection poses a liability risk for planners and installers of switching devices. As a premier diversified industrial manufacturer, Eaton meets your electrical challenges with advanced electrical control and power distribution products, industrial automation, world-class manufacturing, and global engineering services and support. Understanding system protection requirements enables you to better design robust system inputs.
