WGSPC-40 Surge Protection Device

WGSPC-40 Surge Protection Device (SPD) is a low-voltage surge protector designed to safeguard electrical systems from transient overvoltage and lightning-induced surges. Rated for up to 40 kA discharge capacity, it provides robust defense for distribution boards in industrial, commercial, and residential power networks.

Product Overview

The WGSPC-40 Surge Protection Device (SPD) is engineered to protect electrical equipment and wiring from the damaging effects of voltage surges caused by lightning strikes, switching operations, or grid transients. Installed at the main or sub-distribution board, it quickly diverts surge energy to the ground, preventing overvoltage stress on sensitive components.

Designed for compatibility with standard low-voltage AC power systems, this SPD is suitable for use in power distribution panels across industries, commercial facilities, and residential buildings.

Key Features

  • High surge discharge capacity: Capable of safely handling surge currents up to 40 kA (8/20 µs) to protect against severe transient overvoltages.

  • DIN-rail mountable: Modular and compact design for quick and secure installation in standard distribution boxes.Visual status indication: Many SPDs offer indicator windows or modules to show protection status (OK/fault)

  • Multiple protection modes: Typically protects L-PE and N-PE paths (line to earth/neutral to earth).

  • Compliance with international standards: Designed according to IEC 61643-11 surge protection norms for reliability and performance.

  • Modular and serviceable: Plug-in or replaceable modules for ease of maintenance and service life extension.

Typical Applications

The WGSPC-40 Surge Protection Device is ideal for protecting against transient voltage spikes in:

  • Industrial electrical distribution panels

  • Commercial buildings and office facilities

  • Residential distribution boards

  • Solar PV systems and renewable power installations

  • Data centers and IT equipment rooms

  • Critical infrastructure requiring surge protection

FAQ

A surge protection device diverts dangerous voltage surges away from sensitive equipment, reducing the risk of electrical damage due to lightning or grid transients.

Yes — it can be installed in both industrial distribution boards and residential main panels to protect electrical loads.

A high discharge rating means the SPD can safely handle large surge currents, increasing its ability to protect systems from strong transient events.
