Hager has published a new technical guide to surge protection that details the risks from an electrical surge, the AQ criteria method for a risk assessment, selecting the devices, installation, cascading devices to create an SPD system and inspection and testing.

Chris Howells, product manager for Hager, commented,  “Amendment 1 has increased the demand for surge protection in both commercial and domestic properties. 

“There is some confusion about the whole area of surge protection – whether it is needed, what level is required and also how and where to install it. This guide aims to provide answers in a clear and concise way.”

The 20 page guide is available from Hager or can be downloaded from the company’s website.
