Voltage Regulators & Surge Protectors

Today, the use of expensive household electrical appliances in your life plays a fundamental role in comfort and greatly facilitating the performance of various work. But how often electrical devices out of order? What is the main reason for the cessation of their functioning and how to protect electrical appliances from premature failure?

Today, almost all imported equipment has units protecting the device from power surges, which at high power surge burn out, but do not allow the device to completely fail. However, the electrical appliance must be taken to a repair shop to replace the fuses.

How to secure electrical appliances in your home or office?

The most correct and reliable solution to these problems with unstable mains voltage is to use voltage stabilizers. Their use is increasing significantly every day, because the use of electrical appliances is simply a necessity today.

There are a lot of varieties of voltage stabilizers, this and ferroresonant stabilizers, inverter stabilizers, uninterruptible power supplies, ferromagnetic stabilizers, electromechanical voltage stabilizers, various electronic voltage stabilizers.

At home, the so-called network filters.

Most often, network filters are presented in the form of ordinary network extenders, but the feature of such filters is the presence of safety nodes and switching buttons. The presence of such essentially simple things in the surge protector significantly reduces the likelihood of equipment burnout when turned on.

Among the most commonly used line filters are Supra Jen Tech, Defender, Torrent, Power cube, Krauler, Buro, Ippon, Photon and Belkin. These surge protectors, depending on the model, can be presented in the form of several outlets or for only one outlet.

For greater protection against sudden surges in the network you use, it is recommended to use voltage stabilizers. In specialized stores there are a lot of them and you can choose the most suitable for you at the price and purpose.

The voltage stabilizer reduces the likelihood of burnout of electrical appliances to very low rates. This is by far the most commonly used device to protect either individual electrical appliances, or all that are in your home.

The most commonly used stabilizers of such companies as Krauler, Resanta, Defender AVR Real, PROFIGOLD. Network stabilizers can be presented in the form of separate cabinets and various voltage adjustment knobs as well as in the form of small blocks with an output voltage limit of 140 to 250 V.

Network filters Some modifications provide protection against prolonged increase or decrease in voltage in the network, the effects of impulse noise, as well as protection against high voltage.

Stabilizers automatically reduce overvoltage and increase undervoltage to the level that best suits your equipment.

In cases of a power surge up to 280 V, the stabilizers lower it to 240 V. In cases where the voltage continues to grow, the stabilizers gently disconnect electrical appliances from the network. Thus, the safe operation of household appliances is ensured at a high level. After all, it is much easier to provide your equipment with reliable, protected power, than to once again endanger expensive equipment, the repair of which will cost much more than stabilizers and filters.
