Standards
1. MS IEC 61643-1
2. MS IEC 61643-12
3. MS IEC 62305-1

Why do we install SPD?
 Protection against Overvoltages

(Surge)
5
Causes of Overvoltages/Surge
 Lightning
 Switching
6
Function of SPD
 To divert the surge to ground as
fast as possible
 Hence, sensitive electronics
equipments installed such as
computers, printers, cameras,
modem etc are protected
 The designer must know the
withstand voltage of the
electronics equipment then only
he/she may select the correct SPD
according to the installation
7
Effect
 Electronics equipments :-
 Degrade
 Burn down
 It depends on severity of the

surges
8
Lightning Waveforms
 Waveform 10/350 µs
 Waveform 8/20 µs
 Waveform 1.2/50 µs

Terminology
 Common terminologies :-
 Class/Type : I/II/III
 Impulse Current, Iimp
 Maximum Discharge Current, Imax
 Nominal Discharge Current, In
 Voltage Protection Level, Up
 Open Circuit Voltage, Uoc
 Etc..
11
Technology of SPD
 Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV)
 Spark Gap/Gas Discharge Tube

(GDT)
12
SPD in Electrical Engineering Industry
 7 MOVs
 Mono Block Type
 Modular Type
 ‘ 3+1 ’ ( 3 MOVs + 1 SG/GDT)
 Modular Type
 Photo
13
Connection
 Parallel or shunt
 Series :-
 the rated ampere is low i.e 5 or 10A
 Not recommended if the ampere is high
– problems after installation

Modes of Protection
 Phase to earth, phase to neutral

and neutral to earth
 7 MOVs ( 3ø )
 3 MOVs (1ø )
 ‘3 + 1’
 3 MOVs + 1 SG/GDT
15
How do we select SPD according to L-S1 spec?
 Incomer of MSB ≤ 600A

 ‘3+1’ or
 7 MOVs
 Incomer of MSB > 600A
 7 MOVs
 The same type of SPD shall be
used for the rest of the
installations
16
How do we select SPD according to L-S1 spec?
 MCCB
 4P (if it is not specify in the drawing)
 TPN (if specified)
 The rated current shall be recommended by SPD’s
manufacturer
 CPC
 Do not specify the size
 SPD installed at floor mounted switchboards,
the length of the lives conductor + the CPC
shall no be more than 0.5m
 The SPD compartment shall be totally

compartmentalized

AMARAN
1. Pemasangan ini dilindungi oleh Surge
Protective Device (SPD)
2. SPD tidak lagi berfungsi apabila “petunjuk”
bertukar warna
3. Sila buat pemeriksaan pada SPD secara
bulanan dan setiap kali selepas berlaku
kejadian kilat/petir
4. Sila hubungi ‘orang kompeten’ untuk
penggantian SPD
5. Pastikan juga ‘circuit breaker’ ke SPD
sentiasa berada dalam keadaan ON (I)

Withstand Voltage
 Withstand voltage as mentioned in

standard :-
Electronics Withstand voltage

Equipment (kV)
Computer, printer,
camera etc 1.5
Sensitive electronics 1.0

equipments i.e
modem
21
Case Study 1
 How to apply Table 1 –

Classification of SPDs in L-S1 Spec?
 2 blocks :- Block A & Block B
 Block A – computers and cameras
 Block B – computers and modem
 Schematic
 Alt 1
 Alt 2
22
Case Study 2
 The selection of SPD in traffic light

controller
 Assumed the withstand voltage for
the electronics cards ≤ 900V
 Schematic
23
Conclusion
 The design may varies but the

selection of SPD must be correct in
order to protect electronics
equipments
 It depends on the budget of the
project
 As an overall, the SPD selected in the
electrical installation design shall be :-
 cost effective
 meet the technical requirements
