Protecting these installations is no longer optional. <\/p><p>The update of ITC-BT-23 of the Low Voltage Electrotechnical Regulation (REBT) responds precisely to this reality. The new instruction prescribes, for all affected installations, protection against permanent and transient overvoltages without the need to carry out a prior risk analysis. In other words: protection is no longer a discretionary technical decision, but a clear regulatory requirement.  <\/p><p>For installers, this has specific and immediate implications: new mandatory protection points, new products to specify and, above all, direct responsibility for any failure if the electrical certificate has been signed without complying with the regulations.<\/p><p>In this article, we explain exactly what the new ITC-BT-23 requires, in which situations it applies, and how to address each point of the installation with the right solutions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d468ea2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d468ea2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In this article:<\/p><ol><li><a href=\"#porque\">Why ITC-BT-23 has been updated<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#que\">What changes and what is required<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#cuando\">When it applies<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#como\">How to protect the installation: practical guide<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#cert\">How to choose correctly: the importance of certification<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#conclusion\">Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7553ec1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7553ec1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"porque\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Why ITC-BT-23 has been updated<\/span><\/h2><p>The ITC-BT-23 has been part of the REBT since 2002, but its original wording left surge protection subject to a risk analysis which, in practice, many installations simply did not carry out. Some distribution companies had already anticipated this requirement through their Specific Technical Regulations, but its application varied depending on the geographical area. The update unifies this criterion from the outset: protection becomes mandatory in all indoor installations and in any other installation with a distributed neutral conductor, without exceptions or prior analyses.  <\/p><p>The benefits of this change are clear on three levels:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Greater electrical safety.<\/strong> The standard adapts and reinforces the protection of today\u2019s installations, reducing the likelihood of faults, fires and data loss caused by transient and permanent overvoltages.<\/li><li><strong>Equipment protection.<\/strong> A correctly protected installation significantly extends the service life of connected equipment, reducing replacement costs for the end user.<\/li><li><strong>Legal certainty for installers.<\/strong> With the standard in force, non-compliance is not only a technical risk: it is a direct responsibility. The person who signs the electrical certificate is accountable. Correctly applying ITC-BT-23 is also the best protection for the professional.  <\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7f5d94 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b7f5d94\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"que\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span style=\"color: #333333;\">What changes and what is required<\/span><\/h2><p>The new ITC-BT-23 establishes two separate obligations depending on the point of the installation:<\/p><p><strong>Type 1 SPD \u2013 upstream of the meter.<\/strong> A Type 1 transient surge protection device must be installed in the meter centralisation panel, upstream of the meter itself and in accordance with ITC-BT-12.<\/p><p>In refurbishment projects, when it is not possible to install the Type 1 device at the meter, a combined SPD (Type 1+2) may be installed directly in the main distribution and protection board.<\/p><p><strong>POP + Type 2 SPD \u2013 in the main distribution and protection board.<\/strong> All installations must include combined protection against permanent overvoltages (POP) and Type 2 transient overvoltages in the main distribution board. Where it is not possible to install the Type 1 SPD upstream of the meter, due to lack of space or the characteristics of the enclosure, this protection must be Type 1+2. <\/p><p>It is important to understand these two concepts clearly:<\/p><ul><li><strong>SPD (Surge Protection Device against transient overvoltages)<\/strong>: this acts against short-duration voltage peaks, such as those caused by atmospheric discharges or switching operations on the grid. They may be Type 1, Type 2 or Type 1+2 depending on their discharge capacity and position in the installation. They must comply with the <strong>UNE-EN IEC 61643-11<\/strong> standard.  <\/li><li><strong>POP (Permanent Overvoltage Protector):<\/strong> this acts against high voltages that remain over time, such as those that may be caused by a broken neutral conductor or a fault in the distribution network. Its function is to disconnect the installation before that voltage damages the connected equipment. They must comply with the <strong>UNE-EN IEC 63052<\/strong> standard.  <\/li><\/ul><p>Both devices are complementary and, according to the new standard, must be installed together in the main distribution board.

The answer is clear: no. The standard applies in four situations:  <\/p><ul><li><strong>New installations.<\/strong> Any newly built indoor installation must include the required protection from the outset.<\/li><li><strong>Major refurbishments.<\/strong> When the refurbishment affects more than 50% of the installed power, the entire installation must be adapted to the new regulations.<\/li><li><strong>Extensions or new outgoing circuits in the distribution board.<\/strong> The addition of new circuits to the main distribution board, such as air conditioning, home automation or new consumption points, requires the control and protection board to be adapted to the requirements of the new ITC-BT-23, incorporating the surge protection devices required by the standard.<\/li><li><strong>Extensions with photovoltaic generation or electric vehicle charging.<\/strong> The installation of a PV inverter or an EV charging point is, in itself, a situation that triggers the mandatory requirement to protect and adapt the entire installation to the new requirements.<\/li><\/ul><p>This last point deserves special attention. In practice, a very significant part of installers\u2019 current work involves adding PV and EV systems to existing installations. In all these cases, ITC-BT-23 applies, regardless of the age of the installation or whether the main distribution board was already in place.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6dc2d2c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6dc2d2c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"como\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><strong>How to protect the installation: practical guide<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-71fa39d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"71fa39d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"179\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cirprotec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2606-Article-Guia-ITC-BT-23_1234.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-28427\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cirprotec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2606-Article-Guia-ITC-BT-23_1234.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.cirprotec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2606-Article-Guia-ITC-BT-23_1234-300x67.png 300w, https:\/\/www.cirprotec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2606-Article-Guia-ITC-BT-23_1234-768x172.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2710962 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2710962\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once the obligation is clear, the important question is how to implement it correctly at each point of the installation.
