Lightening Protection
Extremely high voltage currents can be produced instantly when lightning occurs and
the air in the electric discharge path can be instantly heated up to 20,000℃. As this
instant current is strong enough to damage electronic devices, more effective lightning
protection measures should be taken.
Ensure the rack and device are well earthed.
■
Make sure the power socket has a good contact with the ground.
■
Keep a reasonable cabling system and avoid induced lightning.
■
Use the signal SPD (Surge Protective Device) when wiring outdoor.
■
