SAFEGROUND ®
no earth, no protection
Monitoring grounding system in the surge protection device itself
Did you know that for the installed base of surge protectors, the % that is effectively protecting is unknown?
SAFEGROUND® is the first protection device on the market that, in addition to indicating that it is properly wired, guarantees that there is an adequate path to ground, which is essential if the protection device is to shunt the energy peaks to ground effectively.
What Does SAFEGROUND® Offer?
Confirmation of proper installation
30 years of experience in the sector confirm that it is relatively common for wiring errors to occur during the installation of surge protection devices. These errors result in the loss of protection or risks to the installation itself.
Green LED:
The protector is correctly wired and energized. Green for Go.
Effective surge protection
Even when equipped with surge protection devices, the electrical installation may still be subject to the effects of overvoltage if the ground connection is inadequate or in poor condition.
Green LED:
The grounding path is good enough to effectively discharge surge energy. Green for Go.
Safety information in the event of indirect contact
Just as happens with surge protection devices, the safety of the electrical installation in the event of indirect contact is based on there being a grounding connection.
Red LED:
SAFEGROUND® does not detect a ground connection; it is advisable to check the installation status.
What is SAFEGROUND®?
Ground status indicator
Continuous LED display of ground status.
The best SPD on the market
SAFEGROUND® is the premium protection device in the Cirprotec PSM range, designed according to the most exacting standards. Intelligent protection.
Technology
SAFEGROUND® is based on the impedance loop technology already patented, sold and implemented by Cirprotec in thousands of protection solutions.
Wiring safety
The only protection device on the market that tells you when it is properly installed, avoiding risks due to electrical wiring errors
