Products that are marked "On Order" in the "Available Quantity" column are usually not in stock. Such products are available for purchase, however, due to their limited customer base, they usually have higher minimum quantities. DACPOL offers products that are not in stock for the following reasons: DACPOL currently has a large number of electronic components in stock and adds new products every day, however, tens of thousands of additional components and their various variants are available from our suppliers. Even though it is unreasonable to have all these products in stock due to the limited sales, we believe that it is in the best interest of our customers to make them available. Our goal is to inform customers about the maximum number of products available and enable them to make decisions based on specifications, prices, availability, required minimums and our technical advice. Please note that selecting the "In Stock" checkbox may limit the display to only products available for delivery straight from the shelf.

What is a surge protector for photovoltaics?

Surge protector for photovoltaics is a device designed to protect electrical equipment from overvoltages. This device limits the follow-up current. Overvoltages occur during lightning strikes to the power line or when a no-load line is switched on or off. Overvoltages can lead to the destruction of insulation or other components.

What are the types and applications of surge protectors for photovoltaics?

  • Type 1 – protects against direct and nearby lightning strikes; usually installed at the beginning of the installation powered by a cable line or overhead network, e.g., main low-voltage switchboard.
  • Type 2 – protects most consumers against switching surges and overvoltages reduced by type 1 surge protectors; provides protection against atmospheric overvoltages caused by lightning strikes to objects near overhead lines, directly to the line, or at some distance from the surge protector installation.
  • Type 3 – particularly protects sensitive/expensive electrical and electronic devices
  • Type 1+2 surge protector sets; used when the impulse withstand capability of the equipment is uncertain or when the distance between sensitive equipment and the last protection stage is several tens of meters.
